NOTICE — Customer pays transportation. Poisons and liquids not mailable. Include postage on mailable insecticides, in accordaifee with 

 zone rates on page 152 if wanted by parcel post. Those not mailable are so indicated. 



Insects that suck the juices from Plants, Foliase. etc., such as lice, green, black and white aphis or fly, mealy bu;, red spider and 

 scale, must be destroyed by contact insecticides. Those in po'wder form kill by the breathing pores in the insect's skin; or in liquid form, 

 by being absorbed through their pores. The best contact insecticides in po^vder form are Hellebore, Slug Shot and Tobacco Dust. 

 The best fluids are Aphine, Black Leaf 40, Evergreen, Fish Oil Soap, Kerosene Miscible Oil, Red Arro^v, etc. For San Jose, Oyster 

 and Scurfy Scale, use LIME SULPHUR, SCALECIDE, Etc. 



Insects that Eat Plants, Foliage, Vegetables, Fruits, Flowers, etc., ^vhether 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 Evergreen, Kerosene Miscible Oil, Red Arro^v, Slug Shot, etc. For ground insects, cut v^orms, grubs, etc. use Snarol 

 or Vermine. For Blights, Rust, Black Spot and Fungus Diseases, use BORDEAUX MIXTURE, FUNGINE, FUNGTROGEN, PYROX, Etc.
