How MUCH Boracure does it take ! To kill existing borer in infested timber, deep penetration is required—the equivalent of at least 4 flowing brush coats per \" of thickness. Grubs burrow deep in the timber and it is always better to apply too much than to nullify treatment with too little. Boracure achieve maximum penetration by: 1. Treating timbers untii they will absorb no more. 2. Using motorised equipment. 3. Giving successive flood applications. 4. Injecting flight holes with pressure gun. Each job varies in the amount of Boracure solution necessary. Timbers differ in their ease of penetration. Painted, waxed, varnished and other coated surfaces impede penetration. These and other complex factors make it impossible for ill-equipped amateurs to make a thorough job. For your own protection insist on genuine BORACURE service. All genuine Boracure men have the identifying lapel badge shown alongside. n the average In a 1000 sq. ft. of Boracure is * * m U m S32* 8.7 A There’s borer understructure, house a drum usually required (35 to 40 gallons depending on severity of attack). CLAIMS TO TREAT WITH “A FEW GALLONS” are ABSURD. This is obvious when it is realised that the timbers in a 1000 sq. ft. floor and understructure represent a stack 10' x 5' x 3i'. That’s a lot of timber and it requires a lot of toxic to penetrate it. Yet, because of their specialised equipment and trained operators, Boracure can apply the large quantities necessary for protection at a price that is usually below that quoted for ineffective work!

Good Eggs at the Easter Wedding Tim,and Ru, the Gay Caballeros, once again act in their well-known capacities of Best Man and Groomsman respectively. This time HeeltapsSmith is the lucky man —or the victim, as you will. Numbers of the lads are wise-cracking that hoary old-timer about "another good fellow gone west.” The Padre archly suggests that it is Tim’s and Ru's turn next. At which remark the Bridesmaids prick up their shell-like ears, blush, look coy and endeavour to attract the lads’ attention by trying not to. Altogether "a most enjoyable time was had by all,” as the ever original social reporters so frequently write. Padre: You know, tny dear chaps, Marriage is a grcut institution. Tim: Apropos of Institutions, the one I prefer above ail others is the Welcome Inn. It guarantees harmony, camaraderie and conviviality. Ru: I guess if Mrs. Heeltaps is a psychologist she rvill order a case of Timaru everythne she icants a new frock, and Heeltaps will gladly pay for both. Well , lads, what about another spot of toasting tonic . NOTE : Order your Timaru early for the wedding. To offer guests anything but Timaru is simply not done.
