YELLOW CUPROCIDE is practically all fungicide, being 93 
per cent cuprous oxide, an “insoluble” copper. When you 
spray Yellow Cuprocide, you do not load your plants with 
inactive material that keeps out the light and interferes with 
growth. Every pound you put in your tank is there to fight 
the blight. Better than Bordeaux. A state experiment station 
scientist, on a fellowship supported by Rohm & Hass Com- 
pany, has thoroughly demonstrated that Yellow Cuprocide 
is superior to Bordeaux in continued fungicidal activity. Even 
on crops which can stand Bordeaux, you will be ahead with 
Yellow Cuprocide. On Bordeaux-sensitive crops, such as 
tomatoes and cucurbits, Yellow Cuprocide’s value to you 
is doubled, since you avoid Bordeaux injury. 3 lbs., $2.00.
