Breek's Scale Destroyer dilutes in¬ 
stantly in cold water. It kills San Jose and 
Oyster Shell Scale, Aphis Plant lice, and 
soft-bodied sucking insects by covering 
them with a thin waxy coating. Every 
scale hit by it is killed. It has no caustic 
action, does not injure the operator or 
spraying outfit, possesses no disagreeable 
odor and is altogether one of the most satis¬ 
factory and effective Scale Killers produced. 
If your trees are badly infested with Scale, 
do not use anything else but this destroyer. 
For a fall, winter or spring spray, it is 
unexcelled. It does not cost any more to spray a good fluid 
than it does a poor one, and there is a world of difference in the 
result. 1 -qt. can 35 cts., 1 -gal. cans $ 1 . 00 , 5 -gal. jacket cans $ 3 . 75 ,
