A strong, enough spray can be' made
economically by soaking one pound of
pyrethrum (insect powder) in one
gallon of kero-sene (coal oil). The in
sect powder should cost 45 cents
wholesale or 75 cents retail per pound.-
The coal oil should cost about 15 cents
per gallon.
Some of the powder will not dis

occasionally the poison will all have
gone, into solution in the kerosene af
ter a few .days. This -poison is called
PJ^rcthron. It is harmless toymen and
to all warm blooded animals but will
kill worms, insects, frogs and all cold
blooded animals.. Pyrethron is decom
posed by water. Pyrethron pow’der
must be kept dry until dissolved in
the kerosene.
