_ Field’s Combination Fruit Spray in our 
Spring 1950 Catalog, we have been 
almost swamped with orders for it. 
We knew that a great need existed for 
a spray of this kind, so we haven’t 
been surprised. And a lot of our cus- 
tomers have been asking us questions

After buds have started, it is too late. 
But Dr. Swartwout advocates a dor-
