Ask Sam Pearce, or Gullett & Sons 



They can tell you, from experience, all 



About Insectonos 



Insectonos (pronounced In-sec-to'-nos) is a contact insecticide for the destruction of White Ply, Rose Leaf Roller 

 and Chrysanthemum Leaf Tyer. Numerous growers have been using it for several months— and are so well pleased 

 their recommendation by word of mouth already has caused many other growers to try Insectonos, Ask about it.

 You would certainly be surprised to see my place, as you 

 know that when you were here in June and we syringed the 

 Mums, the air was brown with millers; now the millers are 

 mighty few and far between and consequently the same with 

 Leaf Tyers. Insectonos did all that you claimed for it.

We have been using Insectonos as a remedy for the very 

 destructive Leaf Rollers on Roses and Chrysanthemums, and 

 have found it to be a good remedy. It is easy to apply and 

 has brought us excellent results. 



GULLETT & SONS. 



While Insectonos is comparatively new in this trade, it has been manufactured and sold for other uses for the past 

 25 years. 



Send $1.75 



for a 1-lb. can, delivered postpaid any- 

 where in America. Being non-poisonous, 

 Insectonos can go through the mails. 



Use according to directions (one pound will combine with one pound of Ivory Soap to make 32 gallons of spray). When you 

 see the results you will want a case (S 1-lb. cans), at $10.50, sent prepaid anywhere in the U. S. if cash accompanies the 

 order. $12,00 per case, postpaid, to Canada. Will also supply Ivory Soap Powder, prepaid, at 30c per pound.

The Market. 



Last week found the market flooded 

 with gladioli and asters and also with 

 quite an abundance of the shorter 

 grades of roses. Gladioli are arriving 

 in excellent quality, but asters are still 

 rather mediocre. Japanese lilies are be- 

 ing received in larger quantities, but 

 mostly short, while good sweet peas are 

 hard to obtain. Calendulas have been 

 coming in better and for the most part 

 have cleaned up nicely. A little snap- 

 dragon and delphinium are showing up 

 in a medium grade. Roses are arriving 

 in a little better quality.
