Spraying Formulas 
ARSENIC, SODA AND LIME. 
White arsenic 1 pound 
Sal-soda crystals ',.4 pounds 
water 2 gallons 
Boil the above Ingredients for fifteen to twenty minutes, when the arsenic 
si ould be dissolved, leaving only a little sediment. This stock solution may be 
kept Indefinitely, but should be labeled 'poison." 
To prepare the spraying mixture add 1 quart of the stock solution to 40 
ga-lons of water In which 2 pounds of fresh lime have been dissolved. 
•The dry sal soda should be used in this formula. If the crystal sal soda 
Is used some of the arsenic will remain free and may burn the foliage, as 1 
pound of arsenic combines with 1.6 pounds of dry sal soda, or 4.4 pounds of the 
crystal sal soda. If the crystal sal soda is used it should be increased to 4 
pounds, or the spraying mixture should stand for an hour or two In orue'r 
to allow the arsenic to combine with the excess of lime. . 
In employing these formulas use great care. The pots and utensils used 
in preparing the solution should not be employed for other purposes. The 
arsenic should be plainly labeled, lest It be mistaken for something else.
