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 Lea'd is prepared in powder form. The powdered 

 form can be used in liquid sprays. The powdered form is also 

 used for dusting. 



The principal insects for which Arsenate of Lead is used are: 

 Apple-maggot, brown-tail moth, bud-moth, oankerwoem, codling 

 moth, fruit-tree leaf-roller, gipsy moth, tent caterpillar, pear slug, 

 curculio, etc.

ARSENITE OF ZINC (POWDER) 



Arsenlte 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 and kills quicker than Arsenate of Lead. 



The great advantages of Arsenlte 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 necessary to 

 respray after every rain. 



Third — It can be used at suflftcient 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 de- 

 pending 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 twb weeks later 

 in order to cover new growth. 



Third — Make third application ten days to two weeks after 

 second.
