INSECTICIDES 
HITOX. This double-active Rotenone 
and Pyrethrum Spray is complete, 
with its own spreader. Will not stain, 
discolor or burn the most delicate 
plants or flowers. The most efficient 
insecticide we can recommend. Pt. 
$1.75; qt. $3.00; gal. $9.00. 
O Want to let you know that the demonstration of the 
new Insecticide Hitox was very successful. It was 
applied to a bench of Roses which were full of Midge, 
and after three sprayings three days apart, we found 
the midge absolutely destroyed. There is no sign 
of any midge whatsoever now. I intend to spray my 
entire Roses with Hitox, and therefore would ask 
'you to kindly send two gallons as soon as possible. 
I believe that this new preparation is a godsend 
to the Rose grower and believe sincerely that we do 
not need worry any more about Rose midge. 
Very truly yours, 
C. F. BERTANZEL, 
The Wheatley Gardens, Roslyn, New York. 
0 Kindly be advised that we used the insecticide Hitox 
on several types of plants badly affected with mealy 
bugs, and found same satisfactory, especially so on 
Kentia Palms and Phoenix. We followed out your 
instructions carefully. 
When our supply of Hitox runs out we will call 
on you for a new supply. 
Yours very truly,
