FUNGICIDES FOR DISEASE CONTROL 
Prices subject to change without notice. 
As truck farming becomes more extensive in Florida, we naturally are going to have more diseases to combat, which have already 
become a major factor in producing a crop. Fungicides are just as necessary in producing a good crop as fertilizers, etc. There 
are many factors involved in the use of fungicides, as to the results obtained, such as the proper fungicide for the control of 
different diseases, the time and method of applications. You cannot expect satisfactory control with poor or wrongly timed 
applications. Too often the grower waits until the disease has too much of a start before dusting or spraying, which usually 
is more expensive than starting out with a regular spray or dust program to prevent disease. You not only have to use as much 
or more spray and dust after a disease gets a good start, you also suffer a loss in crop damage before the disease is brought under 
control. Our fungicide sprays are of the latest and highest quality material. Our fungicide dusts are mixed in our own plant, 
which insures you of getting freshly mixed material in the best mechanical condition.

CERESAN (New Improved). Usually destroys seed-borne 
diseases either by direct contact with the spores (germs), or 
by forming a vapor which penetrates every crack and cranny 
of the seed. It also aids in protecting the seed against certain 
soil-borne organisms. 
Ceresan has been used very successfully in treating Gladiola 
bulbs for control of Fusarium rot before planting. Use 14 |b. 
Ceresan, 5 tablespoons of du Pont Spreader and Sticker to 25 
gallons water. Dip bulbs in solution, let remain 15 minutes. 
Bulbs can be planted immediately after treatment. 
Price—4 07 20c; 1 lb. 80c; 4 Ibs. $2.70; 25 lbs. $15.00; 
100 lbs. $55.00. 
COMPOUND A DUST NO. 12. Contains 12 lbs. Copper-A 
Compound. Recommended for tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, 
cucumbers, etc., as a fungicide. 8c per lb.; 25 lbs. $1.80; 50 
lbs. $2.60; 100 lbs. $5.20.

cide. 9c per lb.; 25 lbs. $2.00; 50 Ibs. $3.05; 100 lbs. $6.05. 
COPOTOX 53. Copotox is a strictly neutral product which 
has its advantage over other highly caustic materials in pre- 
venting “burn” to foliage and fruit. It is compatible with 
arsenicals, sulphur, zinc and manganese sulphate, and with or- 
ganic insecticides, such as pyrethrum, derris and nicotine pro- 
ducts free from acid radicals. Copotox is extremely fine. This 
fineness is essential for good coverage of a copper compound 
for effective control of fungus. All the particles in Copotox 
contain copper; they are fine and result in a good protective 
coating. There is no inactive residue to smother and stunt the 
plant, thereby decreasing the yields. 4 lbs. 65c; 100 lbs. $12.80. 
COPOTOX DUST 20-80. This dust contains 10 pounds of 
an extremely fine particle-sized neutral copper (Copotox). 
Recommended wherever copper mixtures not containing lime 
are desired. 7c per lb.; 25 lbs. $1.45; 50 lbs. $1.95; 100 lbs. $3.85. 
COPPER-A COMPOUND. An excellent fungicide for spray- 
ing purposes, containing 45% metallic copper. 6 lb. bag $1.60; 
50 lb. bag $12.90. 
DITHANE D-14. This synthetic organic fungicide actually 
controls blight—both early and late—as well as certain other 
plant diseases. It is greatly superior to the copper compounds 
which have been the potato growers’ chief protection against 
these destructive diseases. The use of Dithane D-14 in compari- 
son with copper spray materials has resulted in better disease 
control and consistently higher yields. Dithane D-14 when com- 
bined with zinc sulphate and lime in the proportions of 2 
qts. Dithane D-14, 1 lb. zinc sulphate and 1% lb. hydrated lime 
per 100 gallons water, is an effective fungicidal spray material 
that gives superior blight control. Used regularly in your spray 
program, it will insure better disease control and higher yields 
than can be obtained with copper fungicides. Qt. 85c; gal $2.75; 
5 gal. $2.65 per gal.; 30 gal. drums $2.55 per gal. 
FERMATE. An organic fungicide containing ferric dimethy]l- 
dithiocarbamate. Fermate possesses several very important and 
desirable characteristics; namely, high effectiveness in low 
concentrations against many fungi, safety to a wide range of 
plants and compatibility with most insecticides. Fermate is 
especially effective in the control of downy mildew in cabbage 
seed-beds, leaf spot on celery, damping-off in celery seed-beds, 
and anthracnose fruit spot on tomatoes. Less than drum lots 75c 
per lb.; 3 lb. bag $1.80; 25 lb. drum $15.00; 50 lb. drum $30.00. 
FERMATE DUSTS. Where dusting is desirable, Fermate
