The poisons include all the Arsenicals: Paris green, arsenate of lead, beetlecide, arsenate of calcium, London purple, etc. Another poison equally powerful in its particular field is the contact insecticide, It is used to combat sucking insects such as the scale, aphis, thrips, red spider, blister mite, etc. These pests possess small beaks which they insert into the tissues of the plants, bark, fruit or leaves, sucking out their juices. This reduces the vitality of the trees, de- forms and disfigures the fruit and often kills the trees. These insects ase destroyed by contact with the insecticides which |causes death by suffocation or ex- ternal poisoning.

Fungicides are preventives only, not cures, and must be applied previous to possible infection. The presence of the spray prevents the germina- tion of the y fungous spores, the ultimate disease and the loss of crops. Dry lime sulfur is a fungicide as well as a contact insecticide. It is ing appreciable insecticidal and fun- gicidal value. These double quali- ties make it a most important spray- ing material. There are also combinations of stomach insecticides and fungicide poisons which are designed to de- stroy chewing insects and prevent fungous diseases., These are com- binations of arsenate of lead and Bordeaux mixture or Paris green and Bordeaux mixture.
