The Kirkton branch of Cook's Division of P & H Ltd., and Cyanamid Canada are pleased to announce that Elwyn Kerslake of Woodham, Ontario is the winner of 5 jugs of PROWL corn herbicide. Last fall, Elwyn was among several corn producers who participated in a satisfaction survey after purchasing PROWL from Cook's and using it in the 1993 crop year. A draw for free PROWL was held this spring and from hundreds of other satisfied PROWL users, Elwyn's name was drawn and declared as the lucky winner. Introduced to Canadian corn growers last year, PROWL has proven itself to producers by providing both effective and economical weed control. Growers have found that PROWL will provide excellent control of both annual grasses and tough, triazine resistant weeds. With the tank mix flexibility of PROWL, producers finally have broad spectrum weed control in a one pass application. As one of the most economical corn herbicides on the market today, more growers are finding that PROWL delivers the weed control and flexibility they demand. Once again, congratulations to Elwyn Kerslake, winner of PROWL corn herbicide. For more information about PROWL, or other Cyanamid crop protection products, contact Cooks at Kirkton or your Cyanamid representative.
