Jryrox kills bugs
^prevents blights
A LL you have to do to keep your
•*■ ^ farm crops free from leaf-chew-
ing insects and fungus diseases is this :
.\Iix Pyrox with water and spray. No
need to waste time and effort mixing
Bordeaux and arsenicals.
We recommend Pyrox because it will
not clog the smallest nozzle. It comes
out a fine mist and covers the foliage
completely, sticking to the leaves even
through the hardest rains. Insects die.
Blight is prevented. Your farm has a
chance to show what it really can do
for you! There is a size of Pyrox to
suit every need!
Nicotine Pyrox
If you have a garden patch, you will
want a jar of the new Nicotine Pyro-x —
Standard Pyrox treated with Nicotine. It
not only kills leaf-chewing insects, prevents
blight and other diseases, as Standard
Pyrox does, but it also kills sucking insects,
such as aphis, thrips and leaf-hoppers.
Standard Pyrox, of course, is designed for
most commercial crops, but in the garden,
where sucking insects do so much damage,
you will want Nicotine Pyrox.
Just mix
with water — and spraj^.
