respect. Known 
as a ‘'crisp” 
leaved variety, 
and is a hard 
header. Splendid 
for open ground 
planting or for

KNOXEM-Our Bu^ Killer That Kills 
Destroys Leaf-Eating Bugs and Cutworms SSr;.;.’,h?2l.’4?“.S 
as the striped potato bug (which is SO destructive to potatoes, eggplant, etc.), the cabbage worm, the 
harlequin bug (found on cabbage and collard), beetles (destructive to beans), grasshoppers, crickets, 
and many other forms of bugs and worms. For cutworms use “KNOXEM” as follows: Before setting 
plants in field, or after planting seed and before plants are up, take wet cabbage, turnip or collard 
leaves, dust one side of the leaf with “KNOXEM” and place them about the field or along the rows 
15 9r 20 feet apart each way. Be careful to place the dusted side down. Do this in the late afternoon, 
or in cloudy weather, and you will have no trouble with cutworms. 
Tl tn Plnni'C No insecticide on the market sticks like “KXOXEM.“ Try 
Hie A Id II IS ityourself. Take a shingle or a piece ot board and dip it in water. 
Then dust one side of it with “KXOXEM” and the other side with any other form ofdry Insecticide. 
Rap the shingle on the edge three or four times. Now notice how much “KNOXEM” has stuck to 
the shingle, and how little of the other insecticide has stayed on. You will find that our “KNOXEM” 
nas formed a coating of powder over the surface, and if there was any bug which had the habit of eat¬ 
ing shingles, he would be dead mighty soon after tackling that particular one. Let the shingle get 
thoroughly dry, and then rap it again. You will find that “KNOXEM” will stay there, while the 
other insecticide will come off clean. The same thing happens when “KNOXEM” is dusted on a 
leaf wet with rain or dew. It is there to stay. No other insecticide made will stay on the plants like 
“KNOXEM.” 
Goes Twice as Far and Distributes Better ^L^^ade'^i'YpVanVo' -^KNVx 
EM” gives almost twice the bulk of any other standard insecticide. That means that a pound of 
“KNOXEM” will cover twice as much surface. Every ounce of “KNOXEM” is effective. It 
distributes better than any other Insecticide. Most insecticides are SO heavy that they are diffi¬ 
cult to distribute evenly; “KNOXEM” is both heavy and light. It is heavy enough to get right 
down in the cracks and crevices of the leaf, and has a peculiar lightness that gives perfeetdistribntion. 
VoT'Vt Fa«llv Ann1ii>f1 It can be dusted over the plants by being shaken over them from a 
' XAppilltu coarse cloth, or put on by a bellows, atomizers, powder guns or in 
way you find easiest. Apply when there is no wind and plants are wet with dew or rain. Dust the 
plants thoroughly. Wherever “KNOXEM” strikes a wet leaf it sticks, and whenever a leaf-eating 
hug strikes “KNOXEM” he dies. Xhe man with Ike family garden, or the man with 50 acres 
in truck both need “KNOXEM.” In applying, dust it on very lightly. Don’t use too much. 
OUR PLANT 
LICE KILLER 
The plant lice or Aphides are not leat- 
eating bugs and require a special insecti¬ 
cide which is known as “PLANT LICE 
KILLER.” Knoxem is for leaf-eating 
bugs and is not effective on the plantlice 
or aphides so destructive at times to 
young vegetable plants, such as cabbage, 
melons, etc. When the lice appear on 
thevoung plants dust thoroughlv with 
“UCE KILLER.”
