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 Hellebore, Slug Shot and Tobacco Dust. The best fluids 

 are Aphine, Black-Leaf 40, Evergreen, Fish Oil Soap, Kerosene Miscible Oil, Red Arrow, etc. For San Jose, Oyster and Scurfy Scale, use 

 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 or Hellebore. Less poisonous stomachic and contact 

 insecticides are E ve r gree n. Kerosene Miscible Oil, Red Arrow, Slug Shot, etc. For ground insects, cut worms, grubs, etc., use Snarol or Ver- 

 mine. For blights, rust, black spot and fungus diseases, use Bordeaux Mixture, Fungine, Fungtrogen, Pyrox, etc.
