Totty's Chrysanthemum Fertilizer 
(What Mr. Chs. H. Totty says) 
We have conducted a series of experiments for the past few 
years in conjunction with a noted chemist to find the best chemical 
ingredients to use in the feeding of Chrysanthemums. The 
fertilizer here offered for sale is the result of these experiments. 
The analysis is as follows: 
Total Nitrogen, 16 to 18. Equal to Ammonia, 20 to 21. 
Ammonia, 16 to 17. Soluble Phosphoric Acid, P2 05 6 to 7, 
Potash, K2 O, 4 to 5. 
This fertilizer is absolutely safe when dissolved in water in 
the proportion of one pound to 50 gallons of water. It may be 
used in conjunctions with natural fertilizers but, in itself, it 
furnishes a complete plant food for not only Chrysanthemums 
but any other plant, such as Roses, that are well routed and will 
stand the feeding. 
Plants may be watered with this fertilizer once a week in the 
proportion given, and the results will amply testify to its value.
