THEY GROW BETTER • THEY YIELD BETTER 
Kill the Bugs! Save the Crops! 
Be sure to spray with the right insecticide, for different insects require different sprays to kill them. As a guide 
we give here some suggestions as to what is most effective. We have all the following insecticides. Full directions 
for using with each package. Those marked "postpaid" may be sent by mail. 
FOR CABBAGE WORMS, dust Slug Shot on the plants at 
intervals as often as found necessary to kill the worms. Slug 
Shot will also kill potato bugs, melon, cucumber and squash 
bugs, and eating insects that attack flower plants. Price ol 
Slug Shot, lb. box 20 cts., s lbs. 60 cts., 25 lbs. $2.50 (post- 
paid, lb. 30 cts., s lbs. 80 cts.). 
FOR CABBAGE MAGGOTS at the roots of cabbat;e, cauli- 
flower, radishes, onions, beets, beans, etc I am glad indeed 
to announce to you that there has at last been discovered a 
sure, effective remedy for this trouble — it is Carco. Mr. 
Page, of Eagle Gorge, says. "For five years we have been 
unable to grow a radish on account of the maggots. Last 
year we used your Carco for the first time and not one plant 
was eaten by a maggot." Full directions for using with each 
package. Price ot Carco, pt. so cts., qt. 75 cts., yigal. $1.25, 
gal. $2. 
FOR CURRANT WORMS, use HeUebore. Dusting this on 
the plants thoroughly will be found very effective. Price ol 
Hellebore, 'Aih. 35 cts., lb. 70 cts., s lbs. $3.25, 10 lbs. 16. 
FOR LICE ON PLANTS. These destructive insects get on 
every kind of plant, on cabbage, potatoes, hects, radish, 
turnips, lettuce, peas. They are often found in great numbers 
on the under side of the leaves and along the stems and .some- 
times on the tops of the leaves. These lice are green and red. 
You should watch for them and spray when you see tlie first 
one, for that is a sure sign there are more, and they multiply 
by the thousands, destroying a crop in a few days if not con- 
trolled. They do not eat but suck the sap from the plant, 
causing it to curl, wither, and die, so they are not killed by 
eating poisons but by a contact poison. Black-Leal 40 is 
the one most effective spray — it kills these lice as soon as it 
touches them and does not harm vegetable or flower plants 
when used as directed. Price ol Black-Leat 40, small 
bottle (makes 6 gals.) 3Sc., K-lb, can (makes 50 gals.) $1. 2-lb. 
can (makes 200 gals.) $3, lo-lb, can (makes 1,000 gals.) S12. 
FOR POTATO BUGS. There are a number of effective pois- 
ons which will 1:111 the potato bugs. Pyrox is used more than 
any other, for it is more economical in that it both kills the 
bugs and prevents blight. In other words, it is a non-burning 
combination of bordeaux mixture and arsenate of lead, giv- 
ing you the benefit of two sprays in one, sticking to the leaves, 
like paint, and does not wash off as others do. We sell tlious- 
ands of pounrls of it annually. Pyrox is good to spray on all 
kinds of vegetable plants to kill all bugs or worms that eat 
the foliage or the vegetable, and it is good also for spraying 
fruit blossotns and fruit. (Ask us for booklet on this subject.) 
Price of Pyro!i,lb. 40cts.,slbs. S1.7S. 10 lbs. $3. 25 lbs. $6.25, 
SO lbs. 5ii. 100 lbs. $20, 300 lbs. $S7. (One pound makes 
S gallons.) 
Paris Green, dusted on, will kill potato bugs, and also 
when sprayed on, in liquid form, using I to iK pounds to 
so gallons of water, depending on the aee of the bugs and the 
tenderness of the plants. Making it too strong on young 
plants or on very hot days may bum the plants. Price ol

Arsenate ol Lead, in dry, powdered lorm, is just 
as effective in killing potato bugs and all other eating in- 
sects. Used also for spraying fruit, both by dusting and in 
liquid form. Prices ol Arsenate ol Lead Powder, >;ib.

FOR CUCUMBER AND MELON BUGS. Use same as 
recommended for potato bugs. 
FOR ASPARAGUS BEETLE. 
(See price above.) 
Use Dry Arsenate of Lead. 
FOR KILLING SAN JOSE SCALE on fruit trees use either 
Scaledde or Lime-Sulphur Solution — both are good. 
SCALECIDE. It kills the San Jose and other scales affecting 
trees. .Safe to use and on rough barked trees it spreads better 
than anyotlier. Thousands of fruit-growers everywhere have 
been using Sralecide and thus kept their orchards perfectly 
clean and h< ahliy. Siiecial booklet, giving full information 
about it, sent ou reiiuest, Qt. 60 cts., gal. Si, 50, 5 gals. $5.65,

SOLUBLE SULPHUR COMPOUND IN POWDERED 
FORM. For use as a fungicide, insecticide and preventive 
of aphis. Reduce the cost of spraying by fighting three 
different classes of pests and diseases with the same weapon 
at the same time. For Winter Spraying, when trees arc 
dormant, use 10 pounds of the material to 50 gallons ot 
water, for the control of San Jose scale, oyster-shell bark- 
louse, pear psylla and other sucking insects; for leaf- 
blister mite, peach leaf-curl, apple scab and other fungous 
diseases. For Summer Spraying, when trees are in foliage, 
for the control of apple scab and larvae of sucking insects, use 
only i>a to 2 pomids of the material to 50 gallons of water. 
For peach and plum foliage, use 2K to 3>i pounds of the 
material to 200 gallons of water. To kill scale, trees should 
be sprayed any time after February i. as long as the trees 
are not in leaf or bud, but only when weather is warm enough 
to prevent freezing of the liquid on the trees. Lb. 35 cts. , 5 lbs.
