HENDERSON'S 

 PLANT FOOD TABLETS, 



Quickly dissolve in water, making Liquid Fertilizer. Immediately beneficial. 

 For House and Garden Plants. 



It is folly to pay transportation charges on water. This is what you do 

 when buying " liquid fertilizers. " You can avoid this unnecessary expense 

 by using Henderson's Plant Food Tablets, which make an honest, high-grade, 

 odorless, liquid fertilizer that goes right to the feeding roots. One tablet to 

 each gallon of water applied with a watering pot once or twice a month feeds 

 plants, supplying their trio of needed essentials — nitrogen, phosphoric acid and 

 potash — in a pure, concentrated, thoroughly soluble and instantly assimilable 

 form. A scientifically-balanced plant ration that promotes and. sustains 

 vigorous health, luxuriant growth, abundant and richly colored flowers.

 of plants and flowers. It is very soluble and is readily assimilated, so that 

 marked improvement is usually noticed, in ten days' time. It is fine and dry, 

 clean and easy to apply, either sprinkled over the surface of the soil as a top-

 plied, by sprinkling over the surface of the soil and raking in; or it can be

HENDERSON'S LAWN ENRICHER, 



Can be Applied Spring, Summer or Fall. Odorless — Quick-Acting.

 never-failing in inducing a rapid and rich green growth. It should be sown 

 broadcast in the spring or fall. It is in every way more desirable than rranure, 

 which is so often full of weed seeds. The use of " Henderson's Lawn Enricher " 

 entirely does away with the old practice of top-dressing lawns with stable 

 manure, which was so objectionable on account of unsightliness and disagreeable 

 odors.

 square feet, or for forming a new lawn, from 1000 to 1500. lbs. per acre, or half the
