"Sulfocide" 



SOLUBLE CULPHUR 

 UMMER OPRAY 



A New Substitute for Bordeaux Mixture 



T^AR surpassing it in effective- 

 *■ ness, durability and ease of 

 application, at one-half the cost 

 or less. 



The most powerful, non- 

 poisonous fungicide for plant life 

 — for rust, mildew, scab, canker, brown rot, etc. 



Combined with Paris Green it sticks better than arsenate of 

 lead, controlling Codling Moth and all worms and chewing insects 

 on fruits and vegetables. ' The best repellent for Curculio. 



FOR VEGETABLES, such as potatoes, tomatoes, egg-plant, 

 cucumbers, beans, cantaloups, etc., and all plants subject to 

 blight, rust, mildew, etc. 



Mr. George T. Powell, of Ghent, N. Y., President of the Agricultural Experts Association, 

 New York City, writes : — 



"We have abandoned the use of Bordeaux Mixture on our apples, as for the past three years it 

 has seriously injured both the fruit and foliage. Where ( SULFOCIDE* was applied, 1 to 150, 

 the fruit is now very fine and free from the Curculio injury, which has been very injurious the 

 past season. We are inclined to believe a most valuable fungicide has been brought out in 

 ' SULFOCIDE,' and shall use it on a larger scale another year." 



For years fruit-growers and truckers have been endeavoring to get 

 away from the use of Bordeaux Mixture, because of the injury to 

 fruit and vegetables and the difficulty in making a uniform and effi- 

 cient mixture. Still others (needlessly, perhaps), have been more 

 or less alarmed at using a poison like blue vitriol on food stuffs.
