A Treatise on FIR TREE OIL as an INSECTICIDE. 

 Its application to Plan ts and Animals, sent Post free 

 on receipt of address, by the Manufacturer, 



Important Notice. 



FIR TREE OIL so -well-known as an Insecticide, is 

 effectual for washing- household Cotton, Linen, and 

 "Woollen Fabrics, and its disinfecting-, bleaching-, and 

 cleansing qualities when added to water for washing- pur- 

 poses, will, after the first trial, recommend itself. 



No Dry Soap or any such preparations must be used 

 ■with Fir Tree Oil. 



Half a wineglass-full of Fir Tree Oil to 10 gallons of 

 ■water for steeping-, and the same quantity to an ordinary 

 size boiler for boiling, with halt the usual quantity of 

 household soap, will do the work splendidly, and with 

 half the trouble. 



For washing Dogs, Pigs, and other animals, half a 

 wineglass-lull to a bucket of water, and used with ordi- 

 nary soap, will do better than any of the prepared soaps 

 for killing fleas, preserving the skin healthy, and making 

 the coat silky and very beautiful. One trial will be 

 conclusive. 



P.S.— Paraffin Oil will mix with Fir Tree Oil in propor- 

 tion of a quarter of a pint of the former to a pint of the 

 latter, and become soluble in water.
