These materials are omni-suitable. The gratuitous testimony of hundreds of customers bears 

 out the fact that there is hardly a known plant in cultivation that some grower has not found to 

 flourish the better for their use. 



Transplanted in Jadoo Fibre and watered with Jadoo Liquid, plants do not flag. They grow 

 stocky, are more hardy, show more brilliant foliage and finer and more continued bloom. Fruits 

 and vegetables have their flavor enhanced as well as the size and quantity increased, seeds germinate, 

 and cuttings root in a surprisingly short time. There being no manure in anv form in its constitu- 

 tion, its cleanliness as well as the absence of all noxious weeds, commends it. 



Pots being two sizes smaller, the difference ih the cost of pots materially lessens the cost of the 

 Jadoo Fibre. Labor is saved because repotting and watering are less frequeutly required, and its 

 lightness for house and decorative plants makes it easier to handle. 



Concentrated ^^JTADOO" Liquid 



Is simply invaluable in Pot Culture, and it is tl;ie cheapest Fertilizer sold. Both nreat and drink 

 to plants. Revives drooping Plants, strengthens the weak and nourishes the strong; above all, it 

 increases the size, causes greater profusion of bloom, and heightens the colors of all Fowers and 

 Plants. Can be used on Flowers and Plants that are grown in Earth or "JADOO " Fibre.

HOW TO USE JADOO. 



HINTS ON GROWING. 



In sowing seeds in Jadoo Fibre an even surface must 

 first be obtained, either by sifting the Jadoo Fibre or by 

 putting a little tine soil or sand on the top of it. Seed 

 properly sown in Jadoo Fibre is certain to come up. 

 Every single seed will germinate, provided it has life in it 

 when sown. 



NECESSITY FOR CLEANLINESS IN FOTS.— It is 

 specially desirable that the pots used should be perfectly 

 clean, as otherwise the roots will adhere to the pots, and 

 the great advantage of the " root action " of Jadoo Fibre 

 is spoilt by their getting broken when shifted to fresh pots. 



POTTING. — Use pots in all cases two sizes smaller than 

 you would in earth. In all eases use the Jadoo Fibre just 

 as you would earth, but press it tight round the roots. If 

 Fibre is fairly moist the plant will not require watering 



for three or four days. JADOO FIBRE BEING VERY 

 RETENTIVE OF MOISTURE, GREAT CARE 

 MUST BE TAKEN NOT TO OVER-WATER. If 



by accident plants get dry, soak them thoroughly by 

 standing the pots in a tub of water with the chill off'. Use 

 pots for the final shift one-third less in size than if grown 

 in earth, i. e., if a 10-inch pot would generally be used, 

 put in a 7-inch one. 



If transplanting from earth to Jadoo Fibre, let the 

 plant get fairly dry, then shake off" as much earth as possi- 

 ble without injury to the roots, and press the Jadoo Fibre 

 firmly round the roots. 



If the Jadoo Fibre shows any tendency to rise in the 

 pot, after the plant has been potted sometime, press it back 

 again, so that there may be no possibility of a space re- 

 maining between the Jadoo Fibre and the bottom of the pot.
