IRISH GARDENING. 



Miscellaneous Section. 



TO-DAY ! AND FOR YEARS AND YEARS PAST 

 the "XL=AII" Specialities are and have been 

 the best on the Market. W'here is the g'ardener who 

 does not pin his faith to one or the other of these 

 celebrated Insecticides or Fertilisers? "XL-AII" 

 Fertiliser has pleased all who have used it this season. 

 The sales of '*XL=A1I" Fumigator prove that it is 

 more popular than ever. " XL=A11 " Liquid Nicotine 

 Insecticide is always spoken of b\^ g-ardeners and 

 grrowers as the most deadly to Mealv Bug-, Thrip, &c. 

 *'XL=AII" Winter Wash, for dormant trees, acts 

 like magic, clearing the trees and bushes of all insects' 

 eggs, moss, and fungoid growths. "XL=A1I" Lawn 

 Sand, a weed eradicator and fertiliser for weedy and 

 poor lawns. '*XL=A11" Weed Killer, used oiice a 

 year ; no weeds can live. Please ask your Nurseryman, 

 Seedsman or Florist for a copy of my small pink list, 

 g-jving particulars of these and man)- other " XL-ALL " 

 Preparations, which can be obtained from the Horti- 

 cultural Trade throughout the World.
