The result of the following experiment speaks for itself, 
and shows conclusively the wasteful extravagance of using 
Paris Green on potatoes when Bug Death can be obtained. 
Professor Zavitz, Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, 
Ont., reports that potatoes treated with Bug Death 
produces 98 bushels per acre more than those wholly 
imtreated. 58 bushels more than those treated with 
Bug Finish (no connection with Bug Death), 46 bushels per 
acre more than those treated with Paris Green and plaster 
and 46 bushels more than those treated with Paris Green and 
water.
