| Question: | "The only remedy we have used so far for brownpatch is... We have used it almost exclusively as a curative measure. Hot, still nights constantly bring the treat of a new attack, and while we are now putting extra concentration on the idea of prevention we still had numerous attacks last summer. This year we are giving our bent greens a light spraying every two weeks in the hope that it may ward off the trouble. In the meantime we have noticed extensive advertisements of another remedy, called ... The dealers make rather extensive claims both as to its curative and preventive properties. Have you tried out this new preparation?" |

| Answer/Response: | "We have not tested the preparation which you mention due to the fact that the manufactures have not furnished us with any for the purpose. Our experence has been that companies which have something of merit are anxious to have us make a trial of their product whereas those who have doubts as to its value are hesitant to let us have any for our trials. We have recently obtained a sample for analysis, however, and have been informed by the analyst that the fungicidal ingredient of the preperation is corrosive sublimate. It also has some nitrogen to act as fertilizer. This of course makes an expensive way to purchase fertilizer and corrosive sublimate." |
