Do not i^i'l :i inisliikcn idea ol' econoniy 

 l),v saving niati'iial early in the season 

 at so heavy a cost at harvest time. Use 

 enough poison, properly mixed and 

 thorou.ghlx api)lied to every part of 

 the trees at the right time to catch all 

 worms, both early and late appearing, 

 lenienibering that the eoilling-nioth 

 e.ggs are deposited both on the Irnit 

 and foliage; therefore at each applica- 

 tion thoroughly cover with a thin lilni 

 of spra\ ever.N leaf and every apple on 

 the tiee. Watch the trees and fruit 

 more closely early in the season, and 

 if any worms or wormy apples can be 

 found, or if weather conditions are 

 such as to favor the development of 

 worms or cause irregularit>' of broods 

 and at the same time work against the 

 elfecliveness of or interfere with the 

 timing of the spray application, make 

 an exti-a effort and do extra work to 

 meet the unusual conditions that ma\ 

 arise at an\ time or in any locality and 

 which do arise at some time in every 

 section. 



Standard aisenate of lead |)aste will 

 positively control the codling moth on 

 any variety of apples in any section, if 

 Ijro|)erly applied, to meet the actual 

 conditions that exist. Work that is 

 successful one year may not necessarily 

 be so next year if followed out in the 

 same way, but under different condi- 

 tions. We cannot lay the fault for lack 

 of success to arsenate of lead, for it 

 is the best-suited poison, all things 

 considered, that can be safely used on 

 apple trees to control codling moth. 

 Xoiinallx three thorough applications, 

 properlx timed, are suliicient to con- 

 Irol codling moth, but it may happen 

 Ihat bi'causc of peculiar conditions 

 four or even five applications will be a 

 better investment than three. 



Final .Suggestions. — Spray the trees 

 before the calyx cups close and fill 

 every calyx with poison. This calyx 

 spra>- may retpiire two ap])Iications on 

 some varieties of trees, but in any case 

 it must be thoroughly done; a drench- 

 ing is really necessary and the nozzles 

 should be held in such position that 

 the sprav will be directed straight into 

 the open end of the calyx. Subsecpient 

 applications are for the purpose of 

 covering the surface of the fruit and 

 (he foliage also; for many eggs are 

 de])osiled on the leaves and many of 

 the worms hatching from these eggs 

 can be killed before they get to the 

 fruit. When you have a light cro]) do 

 not make the nustake of merely pick- 

 ing out the fruit and spraxing the few 

 apples that ma>' be there, hut if \ ou 

 do any spraxing dui-ing such >eais 

 cover the foliage as well as the fruit. 

 Do not make these sunnner applications 

 loo light, neither should they be 

 di-encliiiig spra>s, but every apple 

 shoulil be completely covered. I'oi- 

 these ai)i)lications use only nozzles that 

 will make a fine mist and have sulii- 

 cient pressure for good woi-k. Spray 

 Ihe fruit and foliage on the inside of 

 I he tree first, holding the nozzle near 

 Ihe ceiilei of the tree, diiecting the 

 spray outward in such way as to cover 

 Ihat side of the fruit toward the center

AT the price, the Mogul 8-16 tractor deserves 

 the careful attention of all progressive farmers. 

 It won a Grand Prize at both San Francisco and San 



Diego Expositions. That proves its class. 



It can be used with profit on small farms, doing all the hardest 

 work of the horses, and much that horses cannot do. That 

 proves its usefulness. 



It betters the plowing and other work of seed bed preparation, 

 while reducing its cost, and — 



It burns kerosene under all conditions. Tliis one reason is 

 enough to sell a Mogul 8-16, because, outlie average, gasoline costs 

 about 65 per cent more than kerosene. That proves its economy. 



It costs about half its equivalent in horse flesh. 



The price is $675 cash, f. o. b. Chicago. 



A tractor so good, so useful on farms of all sizes, so economical, 

 and at such a price, deserves a thorough investigation. Vour local 

 dealer should be able to show you a Mogul 8-16. If he can't, 

 write to us. We'll see that you get a look at it, and we will also 

 send you our new book, "Tractor Power vs. Horse Power."
