Extract

Davis and Duke in 1955 reported successful use of a 36 lb ahg solution of the propylene glycol butyl ether ester of 2,4,5-T applied by means of a tree injector. This tool is essentially a modification of the Cornell tool described by Cope and Spaeth in 1931, and subsequently tested with ammonium sulfamate and 2,4,5-T.
