Hammond’s Slug Shot Kills Cabbage Worms 
East Brookfield, Mass., Jan. 14, 1905. 
We have used Slug Shot and always found it very useful. 
Slug Shot for Cabbage Worms is the best defense in the world. 
Very truly, F. A. DRAKE 
Cabbage Worms 
The Cabbage Worm has spread wherever cabbage is grown. 
Whether early cabbage or late cabbage, in garden or field, it 
perforates the plant, and is of all worms one of the most dis- 
gusting, to find hidden away in the folds of the leaf. 
If You Want Cabbage Free From Worms, Use Hammond’s Slug Shot 
How to Destroy Cabbage Worms.—Slug Shot can be used lightly or heavily and the cabbage suffers no harm. The cabbage 
forms its head by the interior growth; it throws off its earlier and outside leaves, and no dust can enfold within its head. Apply Slug 
Shot with a Duster, sieve it over the plants or full grown cabbages. The powder is very fine and goes a long way in field or garden.
