Ije.iutitul. l)ut the smell is anything but pleasant. Mr. 

 Smith also sends charming sprays of Lonicera syring-

 slender branches which in May are clollied with dainty, 

 sweet-scented pink flowers, and small. o\'ate, lance- 

 olate leaves .ibont half an inch long by a quarter of an 

 inch broad. 



Notes. 



Willi's Chemical Manure Co., Hereford, is an old 

 established firm which makes a speciality of manures 

 for the garden and greenhouse. G. H. With, F.C.S.. 

 sends a pamphlet entitled " How to Increase the Fruits 

 of the Karth." The gardener nowadays looks for the 

 help of the agricultural chemist to guide him in feeding 

 his plants and giving them their proper kind of foods. 

 By the aid of analytical chemists, With's have prepared 

 special manures for fruit, cucumbers, tomatoes, vines, 

 chrysanthemums, &c. , and for general use Willi's plant 

 food may be recommended.

KILOGRUB 



is the one vermicide you can safely rely 

 on to rid your garden of insect pests. 

 You see little of them above ground 

 during the daylight, but at other times 

 they're as busy as such nuisances can 

 be. And underground they're always 

 "at it"-at your roots. KILOGRUB 



"SETTLES" THEM 



at once. It is a dry powder which gives 

 ofT fumes when dug into the soil, and 

 these fumes retain their efficacy for six 

 months or more, killing every insect 

 within their reach. Only two or three 

 ounces need be used to the square yard.
