TO CONTROL CHEWING AND SUCKING INSECTS 
Bowker’s Powdered Arsenate 
of Lead 
Can be used either as a spray or as a 
dust for external chewing insects. It will 
not burn or injure your crop. It is the 
fineness of Bowker’s Arsenate of Lead that 
causes it not only to spread and to stick 
better, but to kill better. Mixes easily, 
stays well in suspension, with no trouble 
from clogged nozzles. 
Also used extensively for soil-treatment 
of golf greens and lawns to control white 
grubs and beetles that infest the sod and 
eat the roots of grass. Use 4 to 8 pounds 
for each 1,000 square feet of surface, mixed 
with top-soil, loam, or fine sand. Use 4 
pounds of Arsenate to about 1 bushel of soil. 
1-lb. pkg. 30 cts., 4-lb. pkg. 80 cts., 
48 Ibs. (12 4-lb. pkgs.) $7.92. 
“AA” Quality Calcium Arsenate

it is cheaper than lead arsenate. Use it 
to kill such pests as potato bugs, bean 
beetles, and other leaf-chewing insects. 
May be applied either wet or dry. 
1-lb. pkg. 25 cts., 4-lb. pkg. 50 cts., 48 lbs.
