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 tertilizeis." 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.

 ducing luxuriant, healthy, growth foliage of rich texture and larger and more 

 brilliant flowers of improved substance. It contains in a highly concentrated 

 form all of the ingredients of plant food essential to the highest development 

 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- 

 dressing, or dissolved in water (stirring well). Detailed directions on each pack-

 immediately commence to feed the plants, stimulating them into healthy, 

 luxuriant growth, and it continues to feed them until the end of the season. 



Highly concentrated, fine, dry and free from objectionabe odor, easily ap- 

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

 mixed with water (stirring well) and applied as a liquid manure. If something 

 especially fine in vegetables or flowers is desired, two or three additional appli- 

 cations, made at intervals, will produce magnificent results. A 10-lb. package

 odors.
