INJECTS&FUNGUS# 
INSECTS THAT EAT PLANTS, FOLIAGE, VEGETABLES, FRUITS, I 
FLOWERS, ETC. whether bugs, beetles, worms, caterpillars or slugs, 
arc more quickly and effectually destroyed with a poisonous insecticide as 
Arsenate of Lead, Paris Green or Hellebore. These if intelligently applied 
according to directions arc so dilute as to be harmless to vegetation and to 
animal life, excepting in quantity. Less poisonous stomatic and contact 
insecticides are Bug Death, Fir Tree Oil Soap, Kerosene Emulsion, 
Slug Shot, etc. 
FOR HOUSE AND CONSERVATORY PLANTS the most convenient j 
insecticides are Aphine, Nicoteen and Lemon Oil. 
FUNGUS ON PLANTS, TREES, FRUITS, VINES AND VEGETABLES as 
mildew, spot, dry rot, and rust should be promptly treated with Bordeaux, 
Ammoniated Copper Solution, Fungine or Sulphur. 
THE BEST COMBINED FUNGUS AND INSECT DESTROYERS are 
Bordeaux-Arsenate and Pyrox. 
FOR SCALE ON HARD WOODED PLANTS, SHRUBS AND TREES use 
Kerosene Miscible Oil, or if dormant Lime—Sulphur .Solution or Scalccidc. 
FOR TREE BORERS use Borowax. For Tree Wounds use Tree Wound 
Paint. 
TO PREVENT CATERPILLARS AND INSECTS CRAWLING UP TREES, 
use Sticky Tree Cord, Tree Tanglefoot or Fish Oil Soap. 
INSECTS THAT SUCK THE JUICES FROM PLANTS, FOLIAGE, ETC., 
such as lice, green, black and white aphis or fly, mealy bug, red spider and 
scale, thrust their proboscis into the leaf or stem, consequently are not 
affected by stomach poisons and must be destroyed by contact insecticides. 
Those in powder form kill by closing the breathing pores in the insect's 
skin; or in fluid form by being absorbed through these pores. The best 
contact insecticides in powder form are Bug Death, Hellebore, Slug Shot 
and Tobacco Dust. Ihe best in fluid form are Aphine, Black Leaf 40, 
Fir Tree Oil Soap, Fish (Whale) Oil Soap, Nicoteen (Tobacco Extract), 
Kerosene Miscible Oil, Lemon Oil, “X L All” Liquid Insecticide. 
FOR FUMIGATING CONSERVATORIES AND GREENHOUSES use 
Aphis Punk, Nico-fume, Tobacco Powder or Tobacco Stems; for fluid 
vaporizing use Nicoteen or ‘‘X L All” compound. 
FOR UNDERGROUND INSECTS, ants, root lice, grubs, maggots, cut¬ 
worms, etc., use Ant-i-cide, Cutworm Killer, Tobacco Dust, Scotch Soot 
or Vermine. 
FOR ANGLE OR FISH WORMS IN LAWNS, PUTTING-GREENS, 
TENNIS COURTS, ETC., use Henderson’s Worm-Killing Grass Food. 
FOR POTATO SCAB, GRAIN SMUTS, DISINFECTING, ETC., use the 
germicide Formaldehyde.
