Field experiments conducted by Sherwin-Williams horti culturists and grower have proved conclusively that "stings" and "worms" are reduced over 50 when S-W Summer-Mulsion is used with two of the regular Arsenate of Lead sprays. S-W Summer-Mulsion is a highly refined oil, made in both low and medium viscosity. It is specially compounded for.jNort'hwest conditions. Unlike heavy oils it leaves no greasy residue on fruit and foliage. Best results are obtained when applied at the peak of the egg-laying periods. One application for each brood is usually enough. S-W Summer -SJulsion is also a sure control for Sane Jose Scale and Red Spider, thus leaving trees in a thrifty condition for a good crop the following season. Here is what Mr. Archie Smith of Wenatchee, Washington,' says: "I can't see any damage caused from the use of your Summer-Mulsion that was applied on my orchard this season, even though it was used as strong as 5. As to control, will say that it was all that could be desired. I had neither worms or scale." Insure your profits by spraying with S-W Summer-Mulsion. For sale by your nearest dealer.
