Trials 'with' amino- triazole have indicated'that this material will provide '^Ood" con- trols for most -^eed ''gpecies if applied correctly. (Tolerances and registrations for use on:"'cranber- ⢠ries have not been''obtained yet.) Apparently cranberries will ab- sorb a part of this material and it becomes deposited on the bsr- I'ies themselves'.' iAitlinto-triazole has a lovv'M^vel'as'*'far a^ ' warm blooded animals '"are concerned, however, th'^re 'has been some toxicity to warm bloods encount- ered when feedin'v is continued over a prolonged period. Station is advising growers to go slow with experimental use of the material uiitil registration is obtained. Wiscon^jn, j
