SAN JOSE SCALE 
This is the worst and most destructive of all scales. 
It breeds more rapidly than any other. If there is one 
tree in a garden infested with this scale, before the 
season is over the whole garden or orchard is infested. 
In many instances people who do not Know this scale, 
think that it is part of the tree, as iis color resembles 
that of the bark. The trees may seem to be all right, 
and no scale may be visible, but on close examination, 
the scale is found to be there. 
If you have ever noticed while riding or driving 
through the country, trees in gardens and orchards that 
look as if they had been burned or struck with light- 
ning, it is nothing more than the work of the San Jose 
Scale. They spread around the entire branches and 
smother them so that no air may reach the bark, and, 
by so doing, they prevent the circulation of sap and the 
branches are smothered, inch by inch, until life is ex- 
tinct. 
The best time to use Thompson's "SURE KILL" 
Is in March, April and May and also in October and 
November, during the breeding season. 
Spreading of San Jose Scale is caused by all 
movable insects and birds ; even the winds blow it from 
one tree to another. This scale has done more damage 
than any insect ever known, and every lover of nature 
should help destroy it. Whenever a tree is infested 
with it, and the tree is too far gone or too old, you 
should advise your neighbor to destroy it, and, if this 
SON. Sole Agents 
is not done, the State Agricultural Department should 
be notified and they will immediately have the tree or 
Bhrubs so infested, burned. 
We have tried many remedies for killing San Jose 
Scale, and must say that "SURE KILL" does the 
work. We have used it in our Nursery, which is in- 
spected two or three times a year, and the same has 
been pronounced by the New York State Agricultural 
Department, a clean Bill of Health.

Siebrecht £^ Son's Patent Greenhouse Shading 
The most satisfactory Shading ever used 
good Greenhouse. 
How IT IS Made and Operated — The shading is made 
of slats, which are of the best clear wood. It is arranged 
in sections, either fi% or 8 feet wide, but can be made any 
width and length to suit size of roof. These slats are fast- 
ened together very substantially with galvanized wire 
bands and rings. The chain like fastenings are from 1(1 
to 18 inches apart, each section of Shading having a roller 
attached to the lower end, the ujiper portion being fastened 
to the ridge of the hou.se or highest point to be shaded. 
By means of a pulley and line it is easily rolled up and 
down at whatevei distance may be desired. It can be op- 
erated inside or outside of the house. It will protect your 
glass from hail storms, and your plants from the intense 
heat in Summer, and from severe oolil in Winter. Does not 
get out of order; does not destroy pairjt, putty or glass, as 
is the case with the old fashioned method of whitewash or 
paint. It gives your house an evpn and cooling shade and 
a neat appearance. It can be rolled up and down at will, 
which is a great advantage, especially when the short dark 
days come and only a little shading is needed. Estimates 
given on application.
