Fight Insects
With Poison
Sprays
By AMATEUR GARDENER

EVEN THOUGH the weather
Is dry and hot, the home gar

spraying. Warm weather makes
insects active.

The contact sprays must

insects breathe through some

see how the spray materials kill
them.
Chewing Insects
The chewing insects are
larger and they have a different
breathing apparatus. Contact
sprays have little effect on
them. These bugs must be
killed by stomach poisons.
A poisonous residue left on
the leaves of the plant will kill
these pests. Arsenate of lead
is about the best spray material
for the chewing insects. 1t is
easy TO use and will seldom
burn even the tenderest plants.
Deadly Poison
The thing TO remember when
using arsenate OF lead is that
it is deadly poison TO humans as
well as chewing insects, so must
be handled with care. Always
wash your hands thoroughly
after using. -
This poison must not be used
on plants that have residue of
