CUPRO-K for Vegetables 
As a substitute for Bordeaux Mix¬ 
ture, Cupro-K (as a spray or in a dust) 
is of especial value in controlling dis¬ 
eases of such sensitive crops as cucum¬ 
bers, cantaloupes and tomatoes. Bor¬ 
deaux Mixture increases normal water 
loss and causes stunting and, frequent¬ 
ly, blossom drop. Cupro-K permits 
normal growth, blossoming, and fruit¬ 
ing. It is safe and, in addition, effective 
and economical. 
Cupro-K is packed in 3-lb. bags. 18c. lb.
