^vegetables. Besides all varieties of Aphis, 
‘Black Leaf 40” is the "old reliable” specific 
for Thrips, Leaf Hopper, Red Bug and other 
pests that keep you from having perfect flow¬

tools by which electric¬

Every town has its Marys and 
Marthas. Mary is freed from 
household drudgery; Martha is 
“cumbered about much serving.” 
Some day all the world will realize 
that most house work can be done 
by little electric motors, costing 3 
cents an hour to run. Then there 
will be no more Marthas.
