INSECTICIDES AND FUNGICIDES 
APHINE — the well known standard insecticide for aphis, and all 
sap-sucking insects which infest flowers and vegetables in the gar- 
den. It will keep your roses, sweet peas, peonies and all plants, 
free from insects. Endorsed by prominent horticultural authorities. 
Gill 25c; half pint 40c; pint, 65c; quart $1.00; gallon $2.50. 
FUNGINE — is a concentrated sulphur composition, which, unlike 
Bordeaux mixture, does not stain, but cleanses the foliage. A specific 
remedy for mildew, rust and wilt, affecting flowers, fruits and vege- 
tables. Half pint 30c; pint 50c; quart 75c; gallon $2.00. 
YERMINE — a soil sterilizer and vermicide. Destroys cut, wire, eel 
and grub worm, maggots and root lice. Used one part to four hun- 
dred parts of water, thoroughly soaking the ground, it will protect 
your plants against the ravages of the soil. Gill 25c; half pint 40c; 
pint 65c; quart $1.00; gallon $3.00. 
SCALINE — an oil and sulphur composition three-in-one: a scalicide, 
insecticide and fungicide combined. A most efficient winter spraying 
material against San Jose and other scale — and a summer spray for 
aphis and other sap-sucking insects infesting trees, shrubs and hardy 
plants. It is a marked improvement over the old-fashioned kerosene 
emulsion and fish oil soaps, more effective, and more economical. 
Quart 75c; gallon $1 .50: ten gallons $10.00.
