AN EASIER AND BETTER 
SPRAYING METHOD 
Pyrox Without Poison. The nuisance of mixing your own 
. . -spray might be worth while if the 
results justified it. But, to begin with, you can’t be sure of 
your ingredients. Then, the mixture is almost certain to be un¬ 
even; clogging the nozzles if they are small; coming out in big 
wasteful drops if they are large—drops that merely streak the 
foliage, leaving uncovered space for plant disease to attack your 
crop. 
No wonder that blight cuts into your profits in spite of spray¬ 
ing! Yet you can have complete protection—with Pyrox Without 
Poison. Thousands of farmers use it every year. 
Pyrox Without Poison makes a uniform mixture because it 
is made from the best ingredients, carefully selected and scien¬ 
tifically blended. Both copper and lime combine in colloidal 
suspension to make a mixture that goes through the smallest 
nozzle without clogging, and comes out a fine mist that coats 
the leaf evenly all over and sticks to it like paint. 
No trouble—you just mix Pyrox Without Poison with water, 
and spray.. No burnt foliage. No wasted mixture; Pyrox stays 
in suspension well, and doesn’t spoil if you don’t use it promptly. 
Use Pyrox Without Poison this season, on part of your crop 
at least. Test it yourself with home-made Bordeaux. Compare 
the increased yields and better quality produced by the Pyrox- 
sprayed crops—then decide.

Nicotine PyifOX. If you have a garden, you will want a can 
— ■ - - of the new Nicotine Pyrox—Pyrox treated 
with nicotine. It not only kills leaf-chewing insects and pre¬ 
vents blight and other diseases as the regular Pyrox does, but 
it also kills suckirvg insects such as aphis, thrips and leaf- 
hoppers. Pyrox is designed for commercial crops, but in the 
garden where sucking insects do so much damage, you will want 
to use Nicotine Pyrox, the spray that provides most complete 
protection.

A NEW CONTROL FOR POULTRY LICE AND MITES 
It has just recently been discovered that Black Leaf 40, 
undiluted, painted on the top side of poultry roosts, will control 
body-lice. This new method of delousing poultry saves labor, 
does not harm the birds, nor retard egg-production. Black Leaf 
40 is also very effective when applied as a spray against 
poultry lice.
