Insects are raised in incubators at
the FLY-TOX factory. When they
arc fully grown nnd especially strong
and lively they are turned loose in a
test cabinet, "The Fly-Tox Chamber
c f Death" Less than u teaspoonful
of FLY-TOX is sprayed inside. With
in five minutes all -arc dead. But, the
test isn’t finished yet. The dead in
sect, are carefully taken from the
“Chamber of Death" and put gently
into incubators. They remain there
24 hours in an effort to revive them.
If even a wing flutters, the FLY-
TOX tested does not come up to the
high standard of quality, .and never
leaves the factory. This is the quick
acting insect spray you want. It is
FLY-TOX. Accept no substitutes.
There is nothing just ns good. There
is only one FLY-TOX. Developed at
Mellon Institute of Indui-trial. Re
senrch by Rex Research Fellowship.

hoar a signal (they say you can really
HEAR the cyclone Uforc it gets to
you) that tolls me I had better make
nd dash for the old well. We
also have a ditch that promii
protection in case of necessity. I
rather think I would like the ditch—
fo I let the Judge choose the old
well, he needs more room thnn I do,
.and I really think, with help of the
Carpenter family bat we could get
him out It bn’t so deep—but still
deep enough to fool the cyclone. The
Carpenters don’t seem to have the
trouble we do nbout the cyclones,
maybe it is heenuse they do not have
big trees to blow around nnd make
much fuss,—that ha« ‘j'*
with it I know, Tor when I was .a kid
I thought th-* trees waving around
made the wind.
Well, that’- all this time—I
just sending out an S. O. S.—and
that’s no joke. Greenncre needs
storm pit—I would just rather like
the idea of getting ready for the:
f ra y in a more dignified way—and;
I would at least be presentable look
ing if anything should happen. I (
hate the idea of being found dead in
a ditch.
