CONTROL CORN EAR WORMS: Each year thé corn ear worm becomes a greater pest. Control has been difficult because the 
larval stage is passed within the ear and beyond the reach of ordinary control measures. After several years of diligent research and 
testing, Ogen’s Corn Ear Worm Drops is now available for control of this destructive insect. All that needs be done with these Drops 
is to insert the applicator into the tip of the ear and permit a few drops to enter the ear. See page 30.
