A STORY OF DU PONT VERSATILITY
NOT A MONKEY, but the seed pod of a flower. To help bring flowers from this ugly beginning to their full beauty, greenhouse flower growers use "Loro" Contact Insecticide.
"LIGNASAN" Larry is a good friend of lumbermen everywhere. He represents Du Pont "Lignasan" an anti-stain chemical that pre vents sap stain in freshly sawn lumber during the air seasoning period and keeps it bright.
IF RED ANTS were still the source of formic acid (as they once were),
there wouldn't be enough to go around. But Du Pont now supplies industry with formic acid and many other essential chemicals.
GOLFER'S GRUDGE is a course ravaged by worms and grubs. But "Grasselli" Lead Arsenate spells doom to insects, just as other Du Pom Chemicals help growers produce bigger and better crops.
TREES OF LEAD are fun to make in school with a test tube of water glass. But in industry, Du Pont Sodium Silicate fills many practical needs -- as an adhesive, as a size and coating, a binder, a deflocculant or a detergent.
GRAVITY UNDISCOVERED, Newton unknown--that might have been our lot if Du Pont "Parmone" had been in existance then. This amazing new chemical helps make apples stay on the trees until harvest time!
JAWBREAKER NAMES like Tetra Sodium Pyrophosphate don't frighten chemists--when they identify such useful compounds as Du Pont TSPP. This chemical is used in more and more industries because of its unusual qualities and properties.
16 YEARS HARD WORK is the record of this mine tie still in good condition. And thanks are due to a wood preservative known as Du Pont Zinc Chloride. Another newer preservative, Chromatcd Zinc Chloride, is now busy making history wherever wood takes a beating!
FIRE'S NEMESIS is any fabric treated with one of Du Pont's Sulfamic Acid Compounds. This acid and its salts also promises important uses in processing leather, manufacturing dyes and killing weeds.
' | *HESE newer products are finding inA creasing uses in industry. And not only that--there are other new compounds which may he money-savers in your plant. So when you have any processing problem which involves the use of chemicals -- ask du Pont.

THEY TOOK THE NUMBERS FROM ONE TO TEN...
... and "Lncite" made a sales sensation out of them!
YES .. . "Lucite" is stirring up business again . . . for niolders and manufacturers alike! This time as brilliant reflecting address num bers. If you've ever tried to find a strange address oil a pitcb-black night, you'll realize why the idea is a money-maker!
Hut, ideas are one thing ... to make them practical is another!
That's w hy the Lumelite Corporation, manufacturers of the numerals, chose "Lucite" above any other material! One good reason for this choice is the crystal clarity of "Lucite" methyl methacrylate molding powder. Light is reflected brilliantly from it. . . loses little of its orig inal intensity. Another is the unusual strength of this versatile plastic.
And the remarkable way in which "Lucite" keeps its clear lustre, in spite of outdoor exposure, is still another reason!
Da Pont "Lncite" has a habit of making good ideas workable ideas
.. . and sellable ideas. Try it for your own products, new or old. If you need help in their development, the Du Pont Technical Service is always ready to lend a hand. E. 1. du Pont de Nemours & Co. (Inc.),

The amazing versatility of "T,ucite" enables Arpin Products, Inc., to mold n delicate honeycomb pattern
into tin; numerals. Each cell in the honeycomb acts as
a tiny mirror . . . not only shooting the light directly bark to its source, hut causing the whole area to glow as though it were lighted from behind!
