 Insecticides are famed the world over for extreme 

 fineness. Tliis is a vital necessity in Arsenate of 

 Lead. That is tlie quality which gives the four 

 great essentials of a spray — 



Longest suspenu'wn in the tank, due to lighter 

 specific gravity. 



Uniform strength of spray throughout the 

 entire batch. 



Longer adhesion to the foliage. 



Greater area of cover, more uniformity of 

 cover and greater closeness of cover.

ment Station used Sherwin-Williams Dry Powdered 

 Arsenate of Lead and praised it for durability. 

 They said : 



'^Foliage sprayed in spring and analyzed in full 

 shoxced arsenic yet present on the trees. Developing 

 u-eh-ic-ortns -were killed off in September Kithovt

S-W Arsenate of Lead is most economical to use. 

 It gives the desired results with fewer sprayings. 

 Its greater effectiveness kills insects more promptly 

 and allows growth to proceed with full vigor. The 

 long duration of its poisoning power on foliage not 

 only kills earlier pests, but protects against later 

 invasions. The New Jersey Agricultural Expert-
