Arsenate 

 of Lead 



This is the most efficient and lasting of all insecticides, 

 and at the same time the safest. Swift's Arsenate of Lead 

 sticks to the foliage after application and stays on; rains will not wash 

 it off. This means a saving of time and solution in respraying, and 

 uninterrupted protection of your plants or trees. There is absolutely 

 no danger of burning or scorching the foliage no matter how strong a 

 solution is used; solution is made with water only, or it may be com- 

 bined with fungicides. Swift's Arsenate of Lead is the perfect insec- 

 ticide for the Coddling Moth, Potato Bug, Gypsy Moth, Tent Caterpillar 

 and all other leaf-eating insects.

 " Having^ had occasion to use a trial can of yonr ' Target Brand ' Scale Destroyer 

 on a tree that had the scale as bad as a tree could have jt, ! gave it one application 

 last spring, and have found it a success after a thorough examination. I am con- 

 vinced that it will do the work, as I cannot find a live scale left."— ENOS J. FISHER 



(Mr. Fisher has bought a second supply to use on the trees which surrounded this one. 

 We have others still stronger thnn the above. See previous issues.
