M, Thompson. County ' Extension Chair man. Part of this trouble - is due to , the extensive dry weather in which manga- nese deficiency shows up much more readily than it does when we have favor able growing conditions. We are suggesting that where you have corn, soy- beans or peanuts -showing a manganese deficiency. you apply manganese by spray which will make it available quicker than if it is put out as dry material. These spots are noticeable due to the yellowing of the leaf with green mid ribs standing out and in most cases it is very easily identified. According to Mr. Thomp son, "Where these ma terials have been used, yields have been increased as high as 28 bushels of soybeans to the acre. We also would like to encour age you to begin dusting your peanuts for insect control. The systemic ma terial that was applied at planting has played out in most fields and with the cool nights that we have been having, the insect population has built up rapidly and has v caused considerable damage in the peanut field. Also, it Is our normal time to begin this insecticide program and we hope that you will make it as favorable as possible to produce the highest yields in all of our commodities, in order to get us ' the most money," further states Mr. Thomp- .(jViiW Hit, j',,, 1 - ?
