DI-MET SHOWS RESULTS IN CRABGRASS CONTROL

O. E. Linck Co., Clifton, N. J., makers of Di-Met (di sodium monomethyl arse-nate hydrated), now is packaging the crabgrass control product in both liquid and water-soluble forms. The water-solu-ble Di-Met is packaged in individual cel-lophane bags.

fescue and other grasses. The material also showed well in control of Dallasgrass and goosegrass.

Linck Co. says there was no discolora-tion of fairway or greens grasses as a result of Di-Met treatment and that two treatments 5 to 7 days apart is normal application, although one treatment usu-ally destroys the young crabgrass plants.

The material has low toxicity, conse-quently minimum of risk of skin burns and only a "caution" rather than "poison" label is required.

Complete disintegration of branched crabgrass plants occurs from 10 to 14 days after the application of Di-Met, and new plants in areas formerly treated do not build up resistance to the material, Linck declares.

Specialties Co., PO Box 31, Forest Hills, N. Y., has a new lightweight, transparent plastic Sport-Poncho for golfers' use in rain.

Invisibelt Co., Box 35, Woodland Hills, Calif., has a new belt worn inside the trousers to keep the pants up and the shirt down. The company says the belt is especially serviceable for golfers and plans to distribute through pro shops.
