 Dear Sirs— We have tried the Soluble Fir Tree Oil Insecticide, and take pleasure 

 in stating that we h%ve found it an effectual destroyer of all kinds of insect life to 

 which plants in our greenhouses were subject, including red spider. You may use 

 our certificate in advocating it to the trade, but be particular to mention " if used in 

 thorough compliance with given directions." Yours truly, Craiq Bros.
