Liberal Offer No Fruit Grower Should Miss 



Here's proof-positive of our unbounded confidence in "SCALECIDE" as the most effective 

 dormant spray. We will make the following proposition to any reliable fruit grower : 

 Divide your orchard in half, no matter how larpo or how small Spray one-half with 

 "SCALECIDE" and the other with Lime-Sulfur, for three years, evcrythiiiR fise boinp equal. 

 If at the end of that time, three disinterested fruit trniwers say that the part sprayed with 

 '^CALECIDE" is not in every way better than that sprayed with Limo-Sulfur, we will 

 return the money you paid us for the "SCALECIDE ' Could anything be fairer? Write 

 today for full particulars,
