STERLINGWORTH LAWN COMPOUND.While it seems incredible that a preparation can be made 

 which will kill the weeds in lawns without killing the grass, this is exactly what "Sterlingworth Lawn 

 Compound" will do, and also it will help the grass to grow green and greatly improve the sward. It abso- 

 lutely destroys dandelions, plaintain, chickweed and all weeds having broad or hairy leaves. One pound 

 will dress 100 to 200 square feet, depending on the condition of the lawn. Full directions for use on each

 ical compound prepared by the action • of milk of lime on a solution of 

 Copper Sulphate. One gallon makes from 20 to 50 gallons (depending for what it is to be used) 

 of Bordeaux ready to use, by simply adding water. Explicit directions on every can give instruc- 

 tions how and when to use. Prices: One quart cans, 35c. each; i gallon cans, $1.00 each.; 5

Lime and Sulphur ^o'" jose scaie.—it takes 



years for a fruit tree to reach a 



profitable age, but San Jose Scale can kill it in a single 



season. Lime and sulphur mixture can be made on the 

 farm if the propei appliances are at hand, but it is a most 

 disagreeable job. Our mixture is highly concentrated, and 

 is ready for use by simply adding water, no boiling. Spray 

 in the late fall and early winter, and again in the spring 

 before the buds open. For small orchard use the Bucket 

 Spray ; for large orchard the Barrel Pump. Dilute one gal- 

 lon of Lime and Sulphur with 20 to 40 gallons of water, ac- 

 cording to the nature of the tree. Quart, 30c. ; gallon, $1.00; 

 5 gallons, $4.00. 



ARSENATE OF LEAD (in paste form). — The advan- 

 tages over Paris Green are its cheapness ; no burning or
