 three possible methods:

 it. (2) Internal contact if 

 they eat it. (3) Exposure to 

 vapor if they breathe it. 

 Easy to mix and does not crys- 

 tallize. It's economical, one 

 tablespoonful makes one gal- 

 lon and covers 1 00 sq. ft. 

 of lawn or garden. Trial size, 

 Pt., $1.50 (Plus 15c postage)

TERMITE CONTROL 



A new economical method for protection 

 against sub-surface termites. 



This material dilutes with plain tap- 

 water, but becomes insoluble after it 

 has been injected into the soil. One gal- 

 lon of concentrate treats 1 cubic feet 

 of earth. Kills termites on contact, and 

 forms a long lasting barrier that pre- 

 vents the entrance of new infestations. 

 Since no oil is required, damage to 

 shrubbery is materially reduced. Easily 

 applied. No trenching necessary if used 

 in combination with the Soil Injection 

 Pump . . . (see page 60). 



Price $4.50 Gallon, prepaid
