WHICH IS BETTER— 
DUST OR SPRAY? 
Both give effective protection. Dusting is 
quicker because you can keep your duster filled, 
ready for use after a rain or at the first hint of 
trouble. Spraying, on the other hand, gives 
wider coverage, therefore better control. For 
these reasons many expert gardeners use both 
Star Rose Dust and Star Rose Spray for worry- 
free rose gardening. Whether you choose dust- 
ing or spraying or a combination of both prac- 
tices you can put your trust in these products: 
—we do. When applying dusts or sprays re- 
member that light, widespread coverage is 
more effective than a deluge.
