DO YOU KNOW 



VERMINE? 



John Lewis Childs, Flowerfield, N. Y., 

 writes: — 



"I suppose you will be glad to know that 

 VERMINE Is giving excellent s.itlsf notion. 

 Our greenhouse foreman says that it is the 

 only thing that he has ever used that will 

 kill white ants in the benches." 



Valentine Burgevin's Sons, Kingston, 



N. Y., writes: — 



"We wish to say that we find VERMINE 

 an excellent thing. We used it on a bench 

 planted with Smilax to kill root lice or 

 maggots, which ate the roots, and after 

 two applications our Smilax is taking on 

 new life and has started off to grow." 



The Gardner Nursery Company, Osage, 



Iowa, writes: — 



"We will use VERMINE on our out-of- 

 door fields of strawberry plants If the In- 

 side test continues as satisfactory as It 

 now seems." 



W. N. Craig, Brookline, Mass, writes: — 

 "I have used VERMINE and found It ef- 

 fective against root maggots, cut worms, 

 earth worms, ants and other ground pests.' 



VERMINE is applied one part to fonr 

 hundred parts of water by thoronffbly 

 Boakini; the soil. It will protect yoar crop, 

 from the ravageH of vermin under grround 

 without the sllgbtest injury to vegetation.
