Remedies for Insects and Fungus, Contact and Stomachic 



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, thrust their proboscis into the leaf or stem, and are not affected by stomach poisons; so they must be destroyed by contact insecticides. 

 Those in powder form kill by the breathing pores in the insect's skin: or in liquid form, by being absorbed through their pores. The best con- 

 tact insecticides in powder form are Bug Death, Hellebore, Slug Shot, and Tobacco Dust. The best in fluid form are Aphine, Nicotine, Fish 

 Oil Soap. Kerosene Miscible Oil. 



Insects that Eat Plants, Foliage, Vegetables, Fruits, Flowers, et c, whether bugs, beetles, worms, caterpillars or slugs, are more 

 quickly and effectually destroyed with a poisonous stomachic insecticide such as Arsenate of Lead, Paris Green or Hellebore. These, if applied 

 according to directions, are so diluted as to be harmless to vegetation and to animal life. Less poisonous stomachic and contact insecticides 

 are Bug Death, Kerosene Miscible Oil, Slug Shot, etc.

HENDERSON'S WORM-KILLING GRASS FOOD 



Henderson's Worm-Killing Grass Food not only stimulates the grass on 

 lawns, putting-greens, tennis courts, croquet grounds, etc., into rich green 

 growth but it quickly eliminates the earth or angle worms that burrow in the 

 turf, causing the soil to become sticky, sour and loosening the roots so that 

 hot sun and dry weather cause the grass to turn yellow and die out in spots. 

 For putting greens it is invaluable, keeping them free from worm casts, level 

 and true without the trouble and expense of daily brushing and rolling. 

 Use one pound for each two square yards.
