Spray Your Fruit for Codling Moth with 



Grasselli Arsenate of Lead 



IT IS THE BEST 



We are now ready to demonstrate the correct- 

 ness of our statement from a practical standpoint. 



We give you the following names and addresses 

 of the winners of the Grand Sweepstakes prize of 

 $i,ooo for the best car of apples shown at the 

 National Apple Show, Spokane, Washington: 



1908 — M. Horan, Wenatchee, Washington. 



1909 — Tronson & Guthrie, Eagle Point, Oregon. 



1910 — C. H. Sproat, Hood River, Oregon. 

 All sprayed with Grasselli Arsenate of Lead. 

 Bear in mind that this material was used at three 



different points, and during three different seasons. 

 Does this not demonstrate to your satisfaction the 

 superiority of Grasselli Arsenate of Lead, both as 

 to locality and climate in which it may be used? 



If so, it will not be necessary to ask yourself the 

 question, "What Arsenate of Lead shall I use this 

 season?" You will order Grasselli Brand. 



Do not buy Arsenate of Lead on arsenic contents 

 alone. Bear in mind when buying this spray that 

 lead should be given equal consideration with 

 arsenic, because it increases the adhesive properties 

 and reduces to a minimum foliage injury.

event Apple Scab with- 

 t damaging your fruit 



THERE are two sprays for controlling 

 Apple Scab and Leaf Spot : Bordeaux 

 Mixture and Lime - Sulfur Solution. 

 The chemical composition of the first is 

 such that while it checks the disease, it is 

 liable to injure the fruit. The russetted, 

 rough appearance resulting from its use is 

 as detrimental to the crop as the diseases 

 which infest them. The best and safest 

 way to avoid this condition is to use 



Sherwin-Williams 



Lime-Sulfur Solution 



When used as directed this preparation 

 will not harm your fruit or the foliage, be- 

 cause it is a concentrated combination of 

 lime and sulfur and has nothing injurious 

 in its make-up. S-W Lime -Sulfur is a 

 strong, properly balanced solution, con- 

 taining practically no sediment — does not 

 crystallize readily, can be used cold and is 

 much more convenient and satisfactory than 

 the home - boiled product. If your trees 

 have Scab, your fruit will be better 3nd your 

 profit larger if you spray with Sherwin- 

 Williams Lime - Sulfur Solution, first as a 

 dormant spray at 1-11, and later after the 

 leaves have opened, at two-week intervals, 

 at 1-40. Write for book described below.
