Kill Insects with Tobacco Insecticide Soap. 
For a long time we looked about for a really good and satisfactory Insect Exter- 
minator, which we could recommend to our customers, and after experimenting 
with everything known, we find that the Tobacco Insecticide Soap is the most 
effectual. It is made from a powerful form of tobacco-gum, and absolutely safe to 
handle ; it will not injure the tenderest growth of plants. It is used by dissolving 
in hot water, applied at the rate of on^ ounce to one gallon of water. With this 
water the plants are sprinkled, syringed or sponged, and one or two applications 
will exterminate any kind of insects. It is sure death to the green or black fly 
(aphis), scale, mealy bug, red spider, etc. If used once or twice a month on plants 
they will never be troubled with insects. 
It is sure death to the cabbage worm, for which purpose we sold large quantities 
last year, and saved many a fine cabbage crop from the ravages of the worms. The 
most effectual preventative for moths known. Price, 25 cents for seven-ounce bars 
by mail, postpaid.
