By far the most important fungicide is Bordeaux Mixture, 

 the action of milk of lime on a solution of Copper Sulphate. 



The preparation of this valuable compound is best left to rlic fxperienced chemist, for unless fully com- 

 bined the CODoer Salt will very likely burn and possibly destroy completely the foliage to which it is applied. 

 Properly compounded the value of Bordeaux Mixture cannot be overestimated. 



Many different proportions of the ingredients are used by various makers, but that which we offer has 

 •been manufactured from the same formula for years and has given universal satisfaction. 



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 instructions how and when to use. 

 Prices: One quart cans, 35 cents each; 1 gallon cans, $1.00 each; 5 gallon cans, $4.50 each. 



TARGET BRAND SCALE DESTROYER.— When 

 you realize the comparison between Lime-Sulphur 

 Wash and Target Brand Scale Destroyer, the latter is 

 by far in advancement. The oil treatment has none 

 of the many disadvantages of the Lime-Sulphur 

 Wash. For example, drop one drop of oil on a piece 

 of paper and watch the spreading effect, which covers 

 a great many times its original size, while the other 

 mixture, 1 drop remains the same as when applied, 

 therefore, the oil treatment covers more surface with 

 less solution, with more effective results.

 1 to 25 for fall and late spring treatment. Price, 

 qt., 35c.; 1 gal., $1.00.
