 DUSTER' 



Blows all dry powder 8 

 over plants and into trees 

 for the killing of insects 

 and fungus. It will cover 

 a given area more thorough- 

 ly with a cloud of powder, 

 and use less than any other 

 contrivance. With it are 

 supplied nozzles for differ- 

 ent uses. With the "V" 

 nozzles, two rows of pota- 

 toes are dusted at one time, 

 then there is a hood nozzle 

 for cabbage worm dusting — 

 it keeps the powder from 

 escaping beyond the head; 

 then there is a curved nozzle 

 for under dustnig, and telescope nozzles to blow powder 

 into trees. It is the most satisfactory powder dusting ap- 

 paratus ever invented. It weighs about 5 lbs., is easily 

 carried, and is operated by turning a little crank.

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 closing the breathing 

 pores in the insect's skin: or in fluid form by being absorbed through these pores. The best contact insecticides in powder form are Bug Death. Hellebore, .-lug 

 Shot and Tobacco Dust. The best in fluid form are Aphine, Black Leaf 40, Fish (Whale) Oil Soap, Nicotine (Tobacco Extract)," Kerosene Miscible Oil and Lemon 

 Oil.

 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.
