Protect Your Trees From 
Borers with 
Para-Dichloro-Benzene 
The peach tree borer (Sanninoidea Exitiosa 
Say) feeds actively in the fall, spring and sum- 
mer months, and lies dormant during the 
winter. It attacks the soft inner layer of bark 
usually just beneath the ground and sometimes 
‘along the larger roots. The presence of these 
pesis is indicated by masses of gum mixed with 
brown frass or “sawdust’’ exuding from the in- 
jured trunk. The borers become full grown from 
the middle of June to the first day of September, 
and then spin silk cocoons which hatch into 
clear winged moths, During the six days these 
moths are alive they lay from 200 to 800 eggs— 
which shows what a menace they will become 
if not properly checked. 
P.T.B. WILL KILL THEM 
The popular modern way to rid your orchard 
of these worms or borers is: to apply Para-Di- 
chloro-Benzene around the base of all trees. 
It is a white crystalline substance that changes 
to a gas heavier than air, and penetrates the 
burrows of the borers. It is fatal to insects, but 
will not harm man or domestic animals unless 
taken internally. 
A_five-pound package of P.T.B. is sufficient 
for 80 trees. An experienced man should be able 
to treat 15 to 20 trees in an hour. 
15 oz. jar, 60c; 5 Ib. $2.35, postpaid. If 
wanted in larger quantities, write for prices.

Hormodin 
For Rooting Cuttings 
Hormodin Powder makes It possible to propa- 
gate practically all varieties of plants from cut: 
tings. The Hormodin treatment enables growers 
to transplant from the propagating bench to the 
field much earlier than with the usual practice. 
Treated cuttings establish themselves readily 
when transplanted. Many species, heretofore 
considered impossible to propagate from cut- 
tings, may now be grown successfully from cut- 
tings treated with Hormodin Powder. Because 
Hormodin Powder induces roots to grow even 
from tissue which does not normally produce 
roots, cuttings may be taken with less regard 
to buds or nodes. Cuttings treated with Hormo- 
din Powder root quicker and have more grow- 
ing roots per cutting.
