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, must be destroyed by contact insecticides. Those in 

 powder form kill by the breathing pores in the insect's skin; 

 in liquid form, by being absorbed through their pores. The 

 best contact insecticide in powder form is Tobacco Dust. The 

 best fluids are Black Leaf 40, Evergreen, Red Arrow, etc. For 

 San Jose, Oyster and Scurfy Scale, use LIME SULPHUR, etc. 



Insects that eat plants, foliage, vegetables, fruits, flowers, 

 etc., whether bugs, beetles, worms, caterpillars or slugs, are 

 more quickly and effectually destroyed with a poisonous 

 stomachic insecticide, such as Arsenate of Lead. Less poison- 

 ous stomachic and contact insecticides are Evergreen, Red 

 Arrow, Rotenone, etc. For blights, rust, black spot and fungus 

 diseases, use BORDEAUX MIXTURE, FUNGTROGEN, etc.
