Tests for Destruction of Aphid Eggs 



The first tests were made for the pur- 

 pose of determining the comparative 

 efficiency of lime-sulphur solution and 

 miscible oils against the unhatched 

 aphid eggs. The lime-sulphur was a 

 fresh sahiple of a commercial concen- 

 trate, having a density of 34° Baume. 

 This was used at the strength recom- 

 mended upon the container for dormant 

 applications, one to eight. Two propri- 

 etary miscible oils were tested, these 

 being diluted one to fifteen, the usual 

 dormant season strength. Although 

 both samples were fresh from the man- 

 ufacturers, one was evidently imper- 

 fect as there was some free oil present. 

 In the tests, however, this imperfect 

 sample showed to less advantage in de- 

 stroying the eggs than the well-pre- 

 pared sample, a rather unexpected out- 

 come, perhaps, in view of the presence 

 of free oil. These tests, as in the case 

 of those following in which the aim 

 was to determine the comparative kill- 

 ing efficiency, were carried out in the 

 laboratory, where careful counts could

Teeth Grow Dingy 



Because You Leave a Film 



All Siaicmcutx Approved by High Denial Authorities 



Teeth Are Ruined by It 



This is why the daily brushing 

 so often fails to save the teeth. 



The cause of most tooth troubles 

 is a slimy film. You can feel it 

 with your tongue. It clings to 

 teeth, enters crevices and stays. 

 Ordinary brushing methods do not 

 end it. So, month after month, the 

 film remains and may do a cease- 

 less damage. 



That film is what discolors — not 

 the teeth. It is the basis of tartar. 

 It holds food substance which fer- 

 ments and forms acid. It holds the 

 acid in contact with the teeth to 

 cause decay. 



Millions of germs breed in it. They, 

 with tartar, are the chief cause of pyor- 

 rhea — a common and serious trouble. 



Now a Way to Combat It 



These facts have been known for years, 

 but dental science found no way to effec- 

 tively combat film. Now that way is 

 found. Able authorities have proved it 

 by careful tests. Leading dentists all 

 over America are urging its adoption. 

 And millions of teeth are now cleaned 

 daily as they never were before. 



The method is embodied in a dentifrice 

 called Pepsodent. And to spread the 

 facts, a 10-Day Tube is being sent to 

 everyone who asks. 



Based on Active Pepsin 



Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the 

 digestant of albumin. The film is albu- 

 minous matter. The object of Pepsodent 

 is to dissolve it, then to constantly com- 

 bat it. 



The way seems simple, but for long it 

 seemed impossible. Pepsin must be acti- 

 vated, and the usual agent is an acid 

 harmful to the teeth. Now science has 

 discovered a harmless activating method. 

 And now active pepsin is embodied in an 

 ideal tooth paste, modern in every way. 



The results are quick and apparent. 

 One sees at once that Pepsodent means 

 whiter, safer teeth. Make this ten-day 

 test in your own home, in justice to 

 yourself.
