_ POST-WAR INSECTICIDES 
All brands have been considerably improved. Rotenone and Pyrethrum con- 
tent has been increased to maximum efficiency, and is no longer under govern- 
ment control. For instance, most wartime insecticides contained no more than 
Y, to 1% Rotenone and as little as 0.25% Pyrethrum, or none at all. 
Most post-war formulae contain 2 to 3% Rotenone and 0.75 to 1% 
Pyrethrum with improved spreaders. 
*Denotes products containing DDT. 

THE STORY ABOUT DDT 
DDT is an extremely long lasting and effective insecticide against most 
garden insects. 
It is unsurpassed as a control agent for Japanese beetle, flea beetle, 
leaf hopper, leaf rollers, corn ear worm, corn borer, thrips, codling moth 
and psyllids—in fact, most chewing insects and several sucking insects. 
It has NOT been proven successful against aphids and Mexican bean 
beetle. DDT is poisonous but in varying degrees. As a powder it is prac- 
tically harmiess. As a liquid it can be irritating to the skin. Avoid breath- 
ing dust or fumes. Don’t be afraid to use it according to directions appear- 
ing on each product. . 
We consider DDT in various preparations as essential for long-lasting 
protection on ORNAMENTAL plants, i.e. trees, shrubs, annual and peren- 
nial plants, roses and bulbous crops. 
We do NOT advise the use of DDT preparations on any food crops other 
than Sweet Corn and Potatoes. Increased concentrations of Rotenone and 
Pyrethrum, both non-poisonous, in post-war dusts and sprays will take care 
of all vegetable pests safely. 
The Bee Problem—yYou need have no fear of destroying bees through 
use of DDT on flowering plants. Bees enter open flowers only. Do not 
spray open flowers with DDT preparations. :
