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 tneir 

 proboscis into the leaf or stem, and are not affected by stomach poisons; so they must be destroyed by contact insecticides. Those in oowder form Icill by 

 the breathing pores in the insect's skin; or in liquid form, by being absorbed through their pores. The best contact insecticides in powder form are Bug Death, 

 Hellebore, JBlug Shot, and Tobacco Dust. The best in fluid form are Aphine, Nicotine, Fish Oil Soap, Kerosene Miscible Oil, and Lemon Oil.

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 elimiuates 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. Vse 

 one pound for each two square yards.
