Keeps crows and blackbirds out of the 
cornfield. It has a very nasty taste, which 
the pests hate. They never bother the fields

not only germinates sooner, but frequently 
results in better than a 90% germination. 
Use Pyrox also to spray potatoes, toma¬ 
toes, melons and beans.

PARADICHLOROBENZENE KILLS THE PEACH TREE BORER 
PARADICHLOROBENZENE—Kills peach tree borer. In the Upper South, September 
15 to October 5 is the right time to apply; Middle South, October 1 to 15; and Lower 
South, October 10 to November 15. Can also be used in spring. 
Level the ground around the base of the tree by scraping off grass, weeds, etc., to a 
distance of about two feet. The gummy substance and soil sticking to the tree should 
be scraped off. Remove only an inch or two of the loose soil on top. Then smooth 
with back of shovel. (See cut.) Scatter in a band around the tree about two inches 
wide. The inner part of this circle should be from 134 to 2 inches from the main 
trunk of the tree. Measure carefully so as to use the proper amount. Cover with 
soil. Don’t stand back and throw the soil, but stand up close to the tree and put it 
directly on top of the paradichlorobenzene. Make a cone-shaped mound. Cover not 
less than 3 to 6 inches deep. Pack with back of shovel. Need not pack very tightly, 
but firm carefully. 
For trees that have grown three years, use three-fourths of an ounce as a dose. 
Use only one-fourth ounce on trees that have grown two years. For trees four years 
of age and older, use one ounce. For abnormally large ones, use 134 ounces.
