Lime-Sulphur Solution, Liquid. The most generally satisfactory 

 and elfective of all dormant sprays; a safe and sure destroyer of all 

 kinds of scale, as well as peach leaf-curl, bud-moth, apple-aphis, 

 blister-mite, peach-worm, bark-lice, etc; also an efficient fungicide. 

 It is strictly a dormant spray and sliould not be applied while tlie 

 trees are in leaf. Fruit trees and shrubs of all kinds should be 

 sprayed every spring at the time the buds begin to swell but before 

 they show green at the tips. Badly infested trees should be sprayed 

 twice a year — once in early spring and again in the fall as soon as 

 the leaves have fallen. Lime-Sulphur, besides being as elfective as 

 any of the dormant sprays, is cheap and easy to apply. It has 

 absolutely no injurious accumulative ellect as do many of the "oil- 

 sprays," wiiich will often injure and sometimes kill the trees if used 

 repeatedly. The solution we offer is a clear, cherry-colored, con- 

 centrated liquid which, for all ordinary spraying should be diluted 

 with 8 or 9 gallons of cohl water to 1 gallon of the Lime-Sulphur 

 solution. Put up in tin packages and oak barrels. Qt. 40 cts., 

 gal. 90 cts., 5 gals. $3.00, 10 gals. $5.00, 25-gal. bbl. $9.25, 50-gal. 

 bbl. SI 6.00. 



Lime-Sulphur, Powdered Form. A form of concentrated Lime- 

 Sulphur which will readily mix with cold water to make fresh 

 liquid Lime-Sulphur for use as a dormant spray. Twenty to 25 

 pounds of the powder will make 50 gallons of liquid of 32 per cent 

 Baumc strength, ready for spraying. Lb. 40 cts., 5 lbs. $1.75, 

 10 lbs. S3. 00, 25 lbs. S5.00, 100 lbs. S16.00. 



Note. — Agricultural Experiment Stations recommend Linie-Sul- 

 phur in its various forms as the most economical and effective dor- 

 mant spray, and the only spray that will positively not injure trees 

 if used at the proper time. 



Melrosine. Death to rose-bugs and to other minor insects injuring 

 the rose. Melrosine is a highly concentrated liquid insecticide, to

 after the plants are through 

 it is sprinkled around and 

 alongside of them. For the 

 eradication of earth-worms 

 of all kinds scatter it freely 

 on the ground and then 

 sprinkle lightly with water. 

 It is not injurious to plant 

 life in any way, but on the contrary is a valuable stimulant and 

 fertilizer." 2 lbs. 35 cts., 4 lbs. 60 cts., 8 lbs. $1.00, 25 lbs. $2.50,
