And you dont bend over once; all you do is spray WEED-B-GON. AN EARLY GRAVE WEED-B-GON is the ingenious Ortho compound of hormone ingredients 2,4, 5-trichlorophenoxy and Hormones make things grow and the hormones in WEED-B-GON make weed grow themselves into an early grave.

weeds may take two applications. But you never bend: you simply spray. Just pour WEED-B-GON into the Ortho Lawn Sprayer (the jar is calibrated so you put in just the right amount) and attach it to your garden hose. The sprayer automatically dilutes the liquid with hose water as it sprays. It makes weeding easy as watering.

And almost as inexpensive. A pint of WEED-B-GON that costs just 1.69, diluted, covers up to 5000 square feet of lawn. Whats more, you can spot treat weeds with this liquid spray instead of spreading your weed control all over the lawn in places where you dont need it.

Even woody plants like poison oak, poison ivy, sumac and brambles can't resist WEED-B-GON, In fact, you can turn WEED-B-GON loose on a tree stump (soak the stump with a pint in diesel oil or kerosene) and the stump you couldnt hack out will wither and die.

Now you may well wonder if something this efficient won't kill lawn grass as well as weeds. The answer is no. Ortho formulated WEED-B-GON so that it can actually tell weeds from grass. It wipes out weeds, leaves grass free to flourish. MEDICINE MEN, NOT MIRACLE MEN Do bear this in mind, however: the Ortho fellows are medicine men, not miracle men.
