EfcSfiBiC 
AH common earth¬ 
worms are a nui¬ 
sance in lawns, golf 
greens, and turf ten¬ 
nis courts, for they not only throw up unsightly 
casts, but also destroy the smooth surface. 
Furthermore, throwing up these casts tends to 
unearth the small root, causing dead spots. 
To rid greens, courts, or lawns of worms, apply 
evenly on a warm day. Dilute 1 gallon with 250 
parts of water and drench the turf. The worms 
will come to the surface and die. Four gallons of 
Reade’s Electric will treat one putting-green. 
Also used for worms that destroy plants below 
the surface of the ground. Pt. $1; gal. $3.50; 
5 gals. $15; 10 gals. $28; 50 gals. $125.
