Kills Bugs-Prevents Blights 
All you have to do to 
keep your farm crops free 
from leaf-chewing insects and fungous 
diseases is this: Mix Pyrox with water and 
spray. No need to waste time and effort 
mixing Bordeaux and arsenicals. We 
recommend Pyrox because it will not clog 
the smallest nozzle. It comes out a fine 
mist and covers the foliage completely, 
sticking to the leaves even through the 
hardest rains. Insects die. Blight is pre¬ 
vented. Your farm has a chance to show 
what it really can do for you. One pound 
of Pyrox makes 4 to 6 gallons of spray. 
Pyrox for Potatoes. Thorough pro¬ 
tection against insect injuries and plant- 
diseases is extremely vital. Tops which 
are full of blight-spots and holes cannot 
produce the greatest possible yield. 
Thorough and frequent spraying will keep 
the vines healthy. Even when insects and 
diseases are not troublesome, copper sprays 
stimulate the growth of the vines and in¬ 
crease yields. 25 lbs. $5, 50 lbs. $7.25, 
100 lbs. $12.50, 300-lb. barrel $30. 
Bowker’s Powdered 
Arsenate of Lead 
Can be used either as a 
spray or as a dust for all 
external chewing insects. 
It will not burn or injure 
your crop. It is the fine¬ 
ness of Bowker’s Arsenate 
of Lead that causes it not only to spread 
and to stick better, but to kill better. The 
smaller the particles, the more effective 
they are when taken into the organs of an 
insect. Mixes easily, stays well in suspen¬ 
sion, with no trouble from clogged nozzles. 
Sticks to the foliage through heaviest 
rains. In Bowker’s you obtain unusual 
efficiency, at no additional cost. 1-lb. 
pkg. 25 cts., postpaid 35 cts.; 4-lb. pkg. 
70 cts., postpaid 85 cts.; 25-lb. pkg. $3.85, 
100 lbs. (4 25-lb. pkgs.) $15. 
Dow’s Magnesium Arsenate 
Experiments show 
that Dow’s Magnesium 
Arsenate is an effective 
insecticide for the con¬ 
trol of the Mexican bean 
beetle and other chewing 
insects. It proves fully 
effective without damage 
to tender bean foliage. 
As a spray, use 6 tea¬ 
spoonfuls to 1 gallon of water. For dusting, 
use 1 part Magnesium Arsenate to 3 parts 
hydrated lime. 12-oz. can 35 cts., post¬ 
paid 45 cts.; 2-lb. bag 65 cts., postpaid 80 
cts.; 100-lb. drum $22.50.

Bordeaux Mixture 
A powerful fungicide 
for the control of blights, 
rusts, and rots on any 
crops where Bordeaux is 
recommended by the 
experiment stations or other agricultural 
authorities. Fine, light, and fluffy, Bow¬ 
ker’s Bordeaux mixes easily and com¬ 
pletely. Hence it covers evenly and sticks 
well to the foliage. When bugs or worms 
are present, use Bowker’s Pyrox in place 
of Bordeaux, as Bordeaux contains no 
poison. 1-lb. pkg. 25 cts., postpaid 35 cts.;
