Two.'ie perr^-nt Nicotine 



For fumigating, NIKOTIANA can 

 be applied by painting or pouring 

 it on steam pipes, or by vaporiz- 

 ing In small pans over lamps. 

 Fumigating with liquid prevents 

 filling the house with smoke as do 

 tobacco dust, stems or paper, — 

 which is injurious to foliage and 

 blooms. Fumigating with NIKO- 

 TIANA simply emits fumes which 

 destroy the insects. 

 Compare the relative efficiency and 

 cost of NIKOTIANA with the high- 

 er priced nicotines and you will 

 find NIKOTIANA the most eco- 

 nomical.
