GENERAL USE PRECADTIONS 
Read entire label before using. 
VERHAM 7-E should be used only for recommended purposes and at 
recommended rates (do not overdose). 
Failure to follow label instructions, or use on crops not 
specifically listed on the label may result in crop injury or 
destruction. 
Applied according to directions and under normal groving 
conditions, VERNAM 7-E viii not harm the treated crop. 
Malformation of the priaary leaves is not unusual. This condition 
is only taaporary and viii not affect yields. During germination 
and early stages of growth, extended periods of unu.ually cold 
and vet or hot and dry veather, insect or plant disease attack, 
the use of certain soil-applied systeaic insecticides, improperly 
placed fertilizers or soil insecticides may create abnormal 
conditions that weaken crop seedlings. VERHAM 
7-E used under these abnormal conditions could result in crop 
injury. 
VERHAM 7-E is recommended tor use on mineral soils only. Do not 
tank mix VERHAM 7-E vith insecticides or fungicides. Do not 
contaminate irrigation vater or vater used for domestic purposes. 
In irrigated areas, do not apply VERHAM 7-E before pre­
irrigation.

VERNAM 7-E is a selective herbicide which is mixed (incorporated) 
into the soil or applied below the surface of the soil for 
control of weeds listed on this label. VERNAM 7-E controls annual 
weeds as their seeds germinate by interfering with normal 
germination and seedling development. It does not control 
established weeds. All weed qrowtb and crop stubble should be 
thoroughly worked into the soil before treat.ent. 
APPLl:CATZOR DDBC'lIORS 
Pour the recommended amount of VERNAM 7-E into the spray tank 
during the filling operation. Apply in 10 to 50 gallons of water 
per ~cre using a properly calibrated, low-pressure (20 to 40 PSI) 
sprayer having good agitation. The soil should be well-worked and 
dry enough to parait good soil .txing (incorporation) or 
subsurface application. Soil should be as free as possible of 
trash for subsurface application with sweeps or injectors. Avoid 
overlaps that will increase dosage above recommended limits. 
PLUJ:D PBkT1LJ:ZBR STA'l'BIIBh'l' 
VERNAM 7-E may be combined with fluid (solution, slurry, or 
suspension) fertilizers. However, physical compatibility with 
these fluid fertilizers must be determined before combining in 
the spray tank. See Appendix I for directions regarding these 
coJibinations. 
DRY PBlCtILJ:ZBR STA'l'BIIBRT 
VERNAM 7-B may be impregnated on .any dry bulk fertilizers for 
use on registered crops. However, uniform distribution of VERNAM 
7-B on fertilizer particles and uniform application are necessary 
to assure good results. See Appendix II for information and 
directions for impregnation and use.

INCORPORATION DIRECTIONS 
VERNAM 7-E must be incorporated into the soil immediately (within 
minutes) to prevent loss of the herbicide. Whenever possible, 
application and incorporation should be done in the same 
operation. 
SOIL IfIYIHG (IIICOIIPORA!l'IOII) &BIORI5 PLUTDG: The following 
equip.-nt is co..anly used for soil llixing ('incorporation) before 
planting: 
Power Driven CUltivation Bq11i~t (Reco_nded on all soil 
types previously primary tilled): Ground speed should be 
adjusted with all PTa driven CUltivation tools to ensure 
thorough soil mixing. 
a. Horizontal action: set to cut 4 to 6 inches deep. 
b. Vertical action: set to cut 3 to 4 inches deep. 
Tandea Disr.s: Set to cut to a depth of 4 to 6 inches, operated 
at 4 to 6 mph, followed by a spike-tooth harrow or some other 
leveling device which extends beyond the ends of the discs. For 
more thorough mixing (for control or suppression of deep­
germinating grasses - wild cane, seedling johnsongrass, and 
nutsedge, disc in two different directions (cross disc). Prior 
to the second discing, raise the disc to prevent cutting deeper 
than 4 to 6 inches. 
ROTE: In the Southern Delta of the Mississippi Valley, disc 
incorporation is not recommended on the heavy (gumbo) clay 
soils. 
Pield CUltivators (Recommended for use on coarse textured soils 
in good tilth): Use 3 to 4 rows of sweeps spaced at 7 inch or 
less intervals and staggered so that no soil is left unturned, 
followed bya spike-tooth harrow pulled behind the cultivator. 
Do not use chisel plows for incorporation. set the cultivator 
to cut 4 to 6 inches deep, operated at 5 ·mph or more. The field 
cultivator should not be used alone as an. incorporation tool 
where control or suppression of deep-gerainating weeds such as 
nutgrass, johnsongrass seedlings or wild cane is desired. For 
control of these weeds, use a disc for at least one of the 
passes over the field.

SOIL J[[XING (INCORPORATION) A1"l'ER PLAHTING: Use power-driven 
cultivation equipment set to cut to a depth of 2 inches, or on 
coarse textured (light) soils only, ground-driven tillers 
(rolling cultivators, rotary hoe, row wheels, etc.) set to cut to 
a depth of 1-\ inches and operated at 6 to 8 mph. When 
incorporating after planting, care aust be taken not to di.turb 
the crop seed or .e.dling. by adj usting tin.. or blades of 
incorporation equipment so they are not directly over the drill 
row. 
SUBSURPACB APPL::rCATXON BBFORB OR AT PLAHTDG (for peanuts and 
soybeans only): Special equipment des:',gned for subsurface 
application MUST be used. Injector unj ts must be rigidly lIOunted 
on or IMMEDIATELY ahead or DlMEDIATELY behind the planter unit. 
Sweeps must be mounted IMMEDIATELY ahead of the planter unit. 
(1) Soil Injeetion -- Injector shanks must be spaced 2\ to 3 
inches apart and mounted in staggered positions to avoid 
trash buildup. Set shanks to inject .VERNAN 7-E 1\ to 3 inches 
below the soil surface. The width of the band in which weed 
control is desired will determine the number and spacing of 
injector shanks required per row. (Example: Four injector 
shanks spaced 3 inches apart gives a l2-inch band). A 
broadcast application can be .ade by increasing the number of 
shanks. The two shanks adjacent to the drill row must be 1\ 
to l~ inches on either side of it. 
( 2) Covered sweeps -- Set the sweeps to run 3 to 4 inches below 
the soil surface. Calibrate by measuring the spray band width 
at the back edge of the sweep, not the sweep width. For 
BROADCAST APPL::rCATIONS, stagger sweeps on double tool bar so 
that they overlap sufficiently to allow spray bands to .. et. 
NOTS: When apply with sweeps, VERNAM 7-E must be applied deep 
enough to allow 3 to 4 inches of soil to remain over the 
treatment after the planting operation. 
PUNTING -- SOYBBANS, PBAlIUTS 
Do not plant seed deeper than 2 inches. FOR VERNAM 7-E 
application .ade before planting, seeding can be done 
immediately, or it may be delayed up to 10 days. If it is 
necessary to work the soil following application and 
incorporation, but before planting, do not work the soil deeper 
than the depth the herbicide was incorporated. To avoid reaoving 
VERNAM 7-E from the row (with loss of weed control in the row) do 
not move or .hape soil after treataent, such as by planting in 
deep furrows. 
RBCOIIIIERDATXONS -- VERNAII 7-B 
These recomaendations are given in terms of broadcast (overall) 
rates of VERNAN 7-E per acre. For band or row application, reduce 
broadcast rates proportionately, depending upon band width to be 
treated and row spacing.

9. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area 
intended for treat.ent, when nozzles do not provide uniform 
distribution or when lines containing the product must be 
dismantled and drained. 
SOYBEANS 
The followinq rec~dations are for soybeans grown in all areas 
except in the Southeastern states: 
VERNAM 7-E may be applied before planting, at planting, or 
immediately after planting. When applying at or after planting, 
cire must be take~ not to disturb the crop seed or seedlings. Use 
2 -3 pints on coarse textured (sandy-light) soils, 3 pints on 
medium to fine textured (sandy loam to clay loam - medium to 
heavy) soils, 3~ pints on very fine textured (clay - very heavy) 
soils. 
For soybeans grown in the SOutheastern states including Horth 
carolina, SOuth carolina, Georgia, Alaba ... , Florida and Bastern 
Tallness.. (Talln. River Bast): 
VERNAII 7-E may be applied before planting, at planting, or 
illlllediately after planting. For incorporated applications made 
before planting, do not plant in deep furrows, or use shanks or 
other device ahead of planter which bring up untreated soil to 
the surface. For furrow planted soybeans, apply VERNAM 7-E at or 
immediately after planting in bands over the row and incorporate 
with rew wheels only. When applying at or after planting, ct:e 
must be taken not to disturb the crop seed or seedlings. Use 2 -3 
pints on coarse textured (sandy-light) soils; 3 pints on-~"lIII8diUll 
to fine textured (sandy 101lll to clay 10am-JIEIdiua to heavy) soils. 
1IO'l'E: In areas where beds are made prior to planting soybeans, 
VERNAII 7-E may be applied in a band immediately ahead of the 
bedding discs, Bet to cover the VERNAII 7-E with 3 to 4 inches of 
soil. If bed levelers are used before planting soybeans, make the 
beds higher to coapensate for leveling, so 2 to 3 inches of soil 
remain over the treat.ent after the planting operation is done.

**In Alabama Only 
The following directions give broadcast rates for VERNAM 7-E and 
TREFLAN 4-EC as a spray tank mix for application prior to 
planting. Read and follow all direction., use l1a1tation., 
precautions and warnings that appear on the TREFLAN 4-EC and 
VERNAM 7-£ labels. 
Broadcast rates per Acre: 
Apply and incorporate before planting 21-3 pints of VERNAM 7-E 
and 1 pint TREFLAN 4-EC per acre. For band applications, reduce 
dosage proportionately, depending on row space and band width to 
be treated. 
Use the following directions for the VERNAM 7-E tank mixes on 
peanuts. 
KIXDfG: 
Add the recommended rates of the herbicides to the spray tank 
during filling and mix thoroughly. Begin adding the herbicides 
when spray tank is half full. Apply in 10 to 50 gallons of water 
per acre. 
SPRAY BQUlPi'iBl't.r: 
Use a properly calibrated, low pressure, boom-type sprayer having 
good agitation. Check frequently during application to be sure 
nozzles are free from clogging and are delivering a uniform spray 
pattsrn. 
SOIL DlCORPORATJ:ON: 
The tank mix collbinationa must be mixed (incorporated) into the 
soil immediately after application. Whenever possible, 
application and incorporation should be done in the same 
operation. This can be done by lIOunting the tanks and boom right 
on the incorporation rig. 
For thorough incorporation, use the following equipment: 
TAROBII DISC: set to cut 3 to 6 inches operated at 4-6 mph, 
followed by a spike-tooth harrow or some other leveling device, 
which extends beyond the ends of the disc. For thorough mixing, 
disc in two different directions (cross-disc) or; 
POWER DRIVEN: cultivation equipaent (tillers, cultivators, hoes) 
set to cut 2 to 3 inches deep. 
Shallow incorporation of less than 2 inches may result in erratic 
weed cc.ntrol. 
PLAllTDlG: 
Peanuts should be planted within 48 hours after the combination 
has been applied to obtain the maximum period of weed control 
during the growing season.

VERNAM 7-E may be combined with the compounds listed in this 
section for tank mix applications on soybeans. Recommended rates 
for each tank mix are listed in the sections below. The mixing, 
spray equipment, soil incorporation, and planting directions for 
the VERNAM 7-B tank aixe. on .oybean. are listed at the end of

DIRBCTIONS FOR SOYBEANS 
A tank IIix combination of VERNAM 7-B (7 pounds active ingredient 
per gallon) and TREFLAN BC (4 pounds of active ingredient per 
gallon) can be used prior to planting for weed control in 
soybeans. 
The combination will control a broader spectrum of weeds than 
either material used alone. This includes tough weeds such as 
nutgrass, velvetleaf, foxtails, johnsonqrass, redroot pigweed and 
wild cane • 
Dependable performance -- because the herbicides are mixed into 
the soil, rainfall is not needed to move them into the weed 
germinating zone. They are already there to kill qrass and 
broadleaf weeds when they sprout.

1. Pour a pint (about 473 all of the fluid fertilizer into each 
of the quart jars. 
2. Add adjuvant to one of the jars and mix (see rate table). 
3. Add the VERNAM 7-E to the desired combinations of herbicide 
to both jars (see rate table for vernam 7-E). 
4. Close both jars with lid and mix the contents by turning the 
jars upside down ten times. 
5. Inspect the surface and bcdy of the mixtures --
(A) I .. ediately after completing the jar inversions. 
(8) After allowing the jars to stand quietly for 30 minutes. 
(C) And then again after turning the jars upside down 10 
times. 
If a uniform aix cannot be made, the llixture should not be used. 
If either mixture remains uniform for 30 mnutes, the combination 
may be used. Should either mixture separate after 30 ainutes, but 
readily remix uniformly with the jar inversions, the aixture can 
be used if adequate agitation is maintained in the tank. If the 
mixture with adjuvant is satisfactory, but the one without 
adjuvant is not, be sure to use the adjuvant in the spray tank. 
Add the adjuvant first at a rate of 3 pints per 100 gallons of 
fluid fertilizer; foaming can be mnimized by using .aderate 
agitation. 
If nondisperibl. oil, sludge, or clumps of solids form in the 
mixtures, the combinations should not be used.
