PERFECT PROTECTION
From the Boll Weevil
Order Boll-We-Go direct from the factory and save $ 9 Of)
your it cotton while you still have time. In a few weeks $|JiZU
will be too late. Your opportunity will be gone. an acre
You are a farmer but you are a business man as well. If a dollar
can be made you want to make it. If a dollar can be saved you
want to save it.
What better way is there on earth of making money than to
kill the boll weevils that infest your cotton and raise a real crop
instead of a sorry one?
BOLL-WE-GO COSTS ONLY 14c A GALLON
At this price you can protect an acre of cotton from the boll
weevil the balance of the season for only $3.20. If these applica¬
tions mean only twelve pounds of cotton more for you an acre,
they will pay for the material. They will, however, save more,
nearly 100 lbs. an acre than 12. What you save you make. There
are big profits all ready for you if you will only act.
BOLL-WE-GO
The Calcium Arsenate Product
is a labor saving boll weevil poison—that means a lot to you with
labor as high and as hard to get as it is . It sticks to the cotton
plant resisting rain, dew and wind—few applications are neces¬
sary. Inexperienced labor can apply it. Boll-We-Go is applied in
daytime—no sleep robbing night work.
As to the product itself hundreds of unsolicited testimonials
from the south’s most successful cotton planters tell the story of
the wonderful way that Boll-We-Go controls the boll weevil. Its
worth is unquestionable. It is a proven product.
Decide right now to make the extra cotton profits that can and
should be yours but will be eaten up by the boll weevil unless you
act. Sit down and order $3.20 worth of Boll-We-Go (8 lbs.) for
every acre of cotton that you want to save. Send check or money
order.
Boll-We-Go ordered will be shipped immediately with full di¬
rections for mixing and applying.
Boll-We-Go is shipped in powder form.
You add the water and save the freight. \
