 JUST WON'T ask for our booklet, that is full of sayings of his fellows, that read: —

He JUST WON'T believe that 96 percent of all the growers who send for our free five- pound trial sample bags of THE FUMIGATING 

 KIND (tor fumigating) and THE HLACK STUFF FINE (for sprinkling), have purchased not once, but again and again, after the trial. 

 WHT BE A JUST WON'T, when you can have these free trial sample bags; yes, two of them if one won't do. All we ask is for you 

 to pay the express charges on them. ASK NOW, don't be a JUST WON'T.

WHITE FLY AGAIN. 



"We are experiencing some trouble 

 from a small white fly on asters. They 

 work from the underside of the leaves, 

 sucking the juices and causing the leaf 

 to discolor and dry up, thus depriving 

 the plant of nourishment through the 

 leaves. The fly is about one-eighth of an 

 inch long when fully developed and the 

 bluish white eggs are similar to green 

 aphis eggs. Please advise as to a pre- 

 ventive. J. A. Si 



If the asters are outdjoors I know 

 nothing about it. If under glass, then 

 it is the very troublesome little white 

 fly. This fly is like the genus homo, 

 omniverous in his choice of vegetables. 

 There is only one sure cure, viz., hydro- 

 cyanic acid gas, which to save you 

 trouble to look up, I will quote formula 

 once more: One pint sulphuric acid, 

 one pint water; mix in one gallon but- 

 ter jar. Tie up two and one-half ounces 

 cyanide of potassium. Drop the little 

 parcel of cyanide into the jar and walk 

 on. Keep the ventilators closed tight 

 all night. The above is for each 1,500 

 cubic feet of air space in your house. 

 This strength will hurt no living plant, 

 but might kill you or the cat if you 

 stopped too long. W. S.
