Against Insect Damage!
Hordes of voracious insects are moving in upon the
gardens in Transylvania county and unless a prompt
end energetic effort is made to resist them, they will
do irreparable injury. Destroy them with Agicide
(dust) or Cream of Agicide (for liquid spray.) Either
of these preparations means sure death to all sucking
and chewing insects and they are harmless to peo
ple. They may also be used on field crops of any
kind with the same results.
