The Proof of Your Method I'm a practical Georgia farmer, and spent $23,000 in money, and five years in time on my Burke County plantations, in an effort to perfect a poison that would protect my cotton from the Boll-weevil. Hill's Mixture is the result, and in the past two years the boll weevil has gotten practically none of my cotton. Is the Cotton You Raise And I raised 604 bales on S12 acrc3 in Burke County In 1922. (This was 4 '/< of the crop for my county, on 1% of the planted acreage.) I was enabled to do thin by protecting my cotton with "Hill's Mixture/' prevent ing the boll-weevils from getting one pound of ray _ cotton! Yqu Can Raise Cotton ? ?? m ii i n i i i ? n i i ? ^ i 'I If you'll protect your crop with HILL'S MIXTURE ? economical, efficient and the easiest boll-weevil poison r to apply, on the market today. Hill's Mixture is a liquid poison, composed of calcium arsenate, molasses, water and secret ingredients which form a combination that we are convinced, from result! obtained, attracts the boll weevil. HILLS ^r/LLt^ MIXTURE Six gallons will g^ive protection to an acre of cotton. Compare this with the cost of dusting. The molasses in Hill's Mixture acts as a binder, and a rainfall of less than a half-inch has little ef fect on it! It can he PUT ON ANY TIME OF THE PAN', and require" no machinery for it* application. Make a rnon out of a stick with a rag tied on the ^nd, and pass up and down the rows, touching the blid <rf each plant with the mop. Unqualified Endorsement of Users! Hill's Mixture was tried oil t last year by scores of farmers on thousands of acres of land, and EVERY ONE OF THEM ARE GOING TO USE IT AGAIN TN ! 02r; : T.et m(! ser. l y/?u their letters endorsing it. The President of the American Cotton Assn. made a special trip to Rurke County to investigate Hill's Mixture, and endorsed it as the best boll weevi! noison on the market. Hill's Mixture is mechanically mixed, every ingredient being pui in in the exact proportion.- None of the uncertain*., uf "mixing your ov. n." Hiil's Mixture is sold in 50-jrallon barn Is.
