Melrosine 



DEATH TO 



ROSE-BUGS 



Many exasperated rose-lovers, seeing the best blooms of their pet roses destroyed by 

 this boiler-plate bug, have wished death to him and all his family. When sprayed with 

 MELROSINE he dies. This definite specific for the Rose-Bug is the outcome of many years 

 of patient investigation by a professional gardener. Keeps indefinitely. It should be on 

 hand in every garden as insurance against the ravages of the Rose-Bug. A small sum per 

 plant expended for Melrosine will protect them against this pest, and will also kill minor insects 



PRICE LIST OF MELROSINE 

 Per gallon, $6.00; per one-half gallon, $3.25; per quart, $1.75; per pint, 

 By express at purchaser's expense. 



$1 .00. 



SWEET PEAS 



Plant Sweet Peas south of the Ohio River in the fall. Try fall planting and be surprised. Everyone who has a yard ought 

 to grow quantities of this sweetest of all flowers, that is not only a beautiful low-growing vine for garden and decorations but one of the 

 most useful of all in furnishing material for vases, bouquets and all cutflower work. Plant quantities of these lovely flowers and cut them 

 with a lavish hand; for every flower you pick, two will come to fill its place. For the largest and finest blossoms dig a trench six inches 

 deep, put in two inches of rotten manure, a little earth, and sow the seed over tnis three inches apart in the row, covering an inch and a 

 half. Do this during the month of November, or just before freezing weather and as the plants grow, fill up the trench around them with 

 rich earth. Such planting will produce enormous quantities of flowers of the largest size. Best mixture of Sweet Peas, 5 cents per 

 packet, or 15 cents per ounce.
