NOTE — Items on this page offered transportation paid are prepaid by us within first and second zones (150 miles of 

 New York City), except where otherwise noted mail, express, or freight, at our option. Beyond these zones, purchaser 

 pays transportation charges. 



Insects that suck the juices from plants, foliage, etc., such as lice, green, 

 black and white aphis or fly, mealy bug, red spider and scale, must be destroyed 

 by contact insecticides. Those in powder form kill by the breathing pores 

 in the insect's skin; in liquid form, by being absorbed through their pores. The 

 best contact insecticides in powder form are Rotenone and Tobacco Dust. 

 The best liquids are Henderson's Aphis Spray, Evergreen, Fish Oil Soap, Kerosene 

 Miscibie Oil, Red Arrow, etc. For San Jose, Oyster and Scurfy Scale, used Lime 

 Sulphur, Scalecide, etc. 



Insects that eat plants, foliage, vegetables, fruits, flowers, etc., whether bugs, 

 beetles, worms, caterpillars or slugs, are more quickly and effectually destroyed 

 with a poisonous stomachic insecticide, such as Arsenate of Lead. Less poisonous 

 stomachic and contact insecticides are Evergreen, Kerosene Miscibie Oil, Red 

 Arrow, Rotenone, Slug Shot, etc. For ground insects, cut worms, grubs, etc., 

 use Snarol or Vermine. For blights, rust, black spot and fungus diseases, use 

 Bordeaux Mixture, Fungine, Fungtrogen, Pyrox, etc.
