INSECTICIDES-Continued 



ARSENATE OF LEAD 



Arsenate of Lead is an arsenical poison for use against 

 insects that chew and for such insects as the fruit-flies 

 that lap and suck up sweetened liquids. It has also 

 been shown to have considerable fungicidal value both 

 when used alone or used in combination with lime- 

 sulphur. 



Arsenate of Lead is prepared in two forms: paste and 

 powder. When the powdered form is used, only half the 

 quantity by weight is required. Both the paste and 

 powdered form can be used in liquid sprays. The pow- 

 dered form is also used for dusting. 



The principal insects for which Arsenate of Lead is 

 used are: applenmaggot, brown-tail moth, bud-moth, 

 cankerworm, codling moth, fruit-tree leaf-roller, gipsy 

 moth, tent caterpillar, pear slug, curculio, etc. Direc- 

 tions: 2 to 3 lbs. paste to 50 gallons of water.

ARSENITE OF ZINC (Powder) 



Arsenite of Zinc. — This is a combination of arsenic 

 with zinc to form a quick acting, adhesive insecticide for 

 use on potatoes and some other truck crops. It is much 

 more adhesive and less caustic than Paris Green ahd kills 

 quicker than Arsenate of Lead. 



The great advantages of Arsenite of Zinc are: 



First — It kills the bugs so quickly they do not have a 

 chance to cause serious injury to vines. 



Second — It sticks to the vines SO that it is not neces- 

 sary to respray after every rain. 



Third — It can be used at sufficient strength to insure 

 results without burning or injuring the vines. 



DIRECTIONS: 



First — Apply as soon as eggs begin to hatch. For 

 spraying use at rate of two pounds to the acre — this 

 may require one or two pounds or more of the powder 

 to fifty gallons of water depending upon the quantity of 

 liquid distributed per acre by the spraying outfit. The 

 spray tank should be partly filled with water and the 

 powder sifted in slowly while the agitator is running. 



Second — Make second application ten days to two 

 weeks later in order to cover new growth. 



Third — Make third application ten days to two weeks 

 after second.

ATOMIC SULPHUR 



This is pure sulphur treated by a special process to 

 convert it into a very finely divided state in the form of 

 paste, so it can be readily diluted v,rith water and applied 

 as a spray to coat fruit and foliage with a thin film of 

 sulphur to prevent germination of fungous spores. 



It is recommended for the control of scab on peaches, 

 brown rot on peaches, plums and cherries and cedar rust 

 on apples. Directions: 5 to 7 lbs. to 50 gallons of water.

(Bordeaux Arsenate of Lead (Paste) 



This is a combination of Bordeaux Mixture and Arsen-
