No Bugs! No Blight! 



Fighting insects is the bane of every man who 

 owns a garden, a tree or a bush. The game is 

 too minute to hunt with a gun but it can be 

 reached by 



Hammond's Slu£ Shot 



from a Hammond Duster, or Bellows and once 

 reached, it dies. "The only good insect is a 

 dead one." This statement is a bit hard — but 

 ask any man who has to contend with insect 

 plagues. 



Hammond's Products have over quarter-of-a- 

 century of perfection back of them. If you de- 

 sire to kill bug organism and save plant organ- 

 isms and at the same time give every plant a 

 fresh start this spring, now is the time to find 

 out about Hammond's.
