Sterlingworth Weed Killer 
This preparation is the most powerful and effective weed¬ 
killing compound known. It is unexcelled for use on walks, 
drives, tennis courts and golf links, and is used largely in parks 
and cemeteries, or where the killing of all objectionable vegeta¬ 
tion is desired. It is a dry powder to be dissolved in water. 
It permanently destroys all kinds of weeds, grass (including 
milk-weed and witch grass), poison ivy, briars, burdocks, dande¬ 
lions, daisies, thistles. One application kills roots and foliage, 
preventing further growth until new seed is sown Do not dig 
up your walks, drives and tennis courts to kill weeds. The 
cheaper, quicker and less laborious way is to use this killer. 
It is applied with an ordinary watering can. Full directions on

Mastica 
(For Greenhouse Glazing.) 
We originally introduced 
Mastica to the horticul¬ 
turists of NewPmgland. It 
is superior to any and all 
other preparations for the 
purpose, and when results 
and labor in setting or 
resetting glass are consid¬ 
ered it is decidedly the 
cheapest article to use.

turers’ Distributing

Mastica avoids the neces¬ 
sity of frequent reglazing.
