CROTOX 
SAVES CORN FROM CROWS, MICE, AND BIRDS 
Crotox has been on the market for years and its use is increas- 
ing every year. By this simple and effective control, farmers 
can now plant corn and be assured that crows and birds will not 
pull up the stand. Crotox is not poisonous but birds of all kinds 
dislike it and will not pull up corn treated with it. One-half 
pint will treat one bushel of corn. Just pour the corn into a box 
and add the Crotox. Then stir until thoroughly mixed. It will 
not gum or clog the planter and can be planted at once or left 
to stand for days without injury to either the seed or the planter. 
It will save many times its cost every year.
