Pe arp A A Ree F 
On Vegetables and Flowers 
Prevent the many damaging 
diseases of flowers and vege- 
tables that are carried on the 
seed, by disinfection of the 
seed with Semesan. It de- 
stroys the destructive  dis- 
eases on the seed and pro- 
tects them from the rots in the 
soil, which results in  in- 
creased stands of more vig- 
orous, healthy plants that 
yield larger, quality crops. 
Sprinkling of the seedling 
beds with Semesan solution 
effectively prevents damping- 
off. Recommended especially 
for seeds bulbs, gladiolus corms, dahlia tubers, and 
rose bushes. Easily applied as a liquid or dust. One 
ounce treats 15 to 30 pounds of seed. Costs luvtoslc 
per pound of seed. Directions in every can. Prices— 
¥% oz. env. 12c; 2 oz. can 45c; 12 oz. can $2.10; 4 Ib. 
can $10.10; 25 lb. drum $58.28; 100 Ib. drum $219.80.
