 blight and rot.

" Black Leaf 40 " 



" Black Leaf 40 " is Truly a " Contact" 

 Insecticide 



The " sucking " insects feed by inserting their sharp, 

 slender beaks into the interior of the leaf, blossoms, 

 etc. They cannot eat plant tissue, and, therefore, can- 

 not eat poisons, hence must be destroyed with a prepara- 

 tion which kills by coming in contact with their 

 bodies — in other words, by a " contact " insecticide. 

 The most common sucking insects, with soft bodies, 

 are the aphids (plant-lice), thrips and leaf hoppers. 

 They may be effectively controlled with " Black Leaf 

 40," a concentrated solution of nicotine sulphate guar- 

 anteed to contain 40 per cent of nicotine by weight. 

 1 Oz. 35c. % Lb. $1.25. 2 Lbs. $3.50. 10 Lbs. $13.50.
