WORTH READING 



Arthur Ruzleka, writing on "Rose 

 Growing Under Glass," in "Horticulture," 

 November 15, 1913, says: 



"We have found that a good spray of 

 FUNG NE will do away with all traces 

 of mildew, and if applied in time will kill 

 it so that many leaves will be saved. 

 This fact is mentioned only for the good 

 of the growers, and not to advertise the 

 article, for this is no place for sdvertise- 

 ments. We have so far heard of nothing 

 that can compare with FUNGINE and 

 that is why no other preparation is men- 

 tioned. 



75c. per qoart. $2.00 per gallon. 



Have you tried NIKOTTANA and com- 

 pared Itwitli other nicotines for fumigat- 

 ing? If not, It will prove worth your 

 while doing so, both from the point of 

 efflcienoy and cost. 



$1.50 per quart. $4.60 per gallon. 



There is nothing "just as good as 

 APHINE for greenhouse spraying for all 

 sap sucking insects— VERMINE for the 

 soil to destroy eel, wire and out worms 

 without injury to vegetation— SCALINB 

 for spraying fruit and ornamental trees 

 NOW against San Jose and other scale, 

 red spider and aphis larva.
