Manufactured under Royal Letters Patent No. 10511-10. 
To Farmers, Market Gardeners and Horticulturists- 
Save Your Crops from All Soil Pests. 
Tipullte Is Fatal to the larvte of the Crane Ply (Daddy Long 
Legs), Wireworm, Leather Jackets, Ants. Grubs, Eelworm, 
Slugs, Woodllce, Beetles, Tulip Root in Oats, Fungus and aU 
Soil Peats destructive to Plant Life. 
Tipullte is a non-poisonous powder, which has been proved by 
experiment to be absolutely non-Injurious to plant life. 
Tipullte yielded satisfactory results in trials over 60 acres of 
Swedes attacked by the grub of Daddy Long Legs. 
Tipullte is manufactured under strict Chemical supervision, 
and its constant efficiency Is thus maintained. 
Tipullte for the Farm. 
Sow Tipullte broadciist by hand or with manure drill, 3 to 
4 cwts. per statute acre, and plough m. 
Tipulltemay also be safely sown in the drills with the seed, and 
for potatoes it may be sown in the rows before planting the sets. 
A most valuable application of Tipullte on the farm is to 
sprinkle it freely on manure heaps when laying these up to 
stand the winter. It thus acts directly upon fungus growths 
and Insect pests, the spores or eggs of which are always present 
in excretal matter, and which develop rapidly in the heat which 
arises from decomposition of the manure itself.
