Makes Plants Grow and Blossom 
Fruit and flowering plants, climbing vines, shrubbery, etc., whether in pots, 
gardens, window boxes or hedges, need food of an organic nature. A food that 
can, like rich soil, be absorbed entirely by the plants. It must be fed to them 
regularly, and not all at one dose. To start young plants in richly fertilized soil 
and expect them to live from then on without further attention and food, is like 
feeding a baby several pounds of beef steak at one meal and expect it to live 
and do well the balance of its life. To supply chemical fertilizers or stimulants 
to plants of this nature, is like furnishing whiskey or brandy to a hungry or tired 
man. It is a temporarf relief only, and a detriment instead of a help. A 
healthy and thriving plant will take out the food supply stored in the small 
amount of soil within reach of its roots in short order. To live, thrive, and 
flourish, it needs a rich and nutritious, readily assimilated, and easily digested 
organic plant food, fed to it at regular intervals. A food that will make plant 
life itself and that w^ill bring forth rich colored, healthy foliage and verdure, and 
an abundance of highly colored, well marked and beautiful flowers. 
The difference between thrifty and scragly plants is the difference between 
success and failure. Weak plants with colorless foliage and blossoms are an 
eyesore anywhere and it is an entirely unnecessary condition, because with 
proper food, proper drainage, and plenty of water and sunshine, every plant will 
be a success and with but very little work and attention. Use caution in feeding. 
Small plants require but little nourishment; big husky plants with an abundance 
of foliage and flowers need to be fed abundantly. 
" Red Snapper " Plant Food is by far the richest, most nutrious and yet 
harmless organic fertilizer for small fruits and house plants, climbing vines and 
shrubbery ever placed on the market. It is made from specially prepared and 
finely ground fish bonemeal and nilrogeneous cartilage mixed with pulverized 
tobacco snuff. Fish bones in the crude state has been used for ages as a fer- 
tilizer for flowers and shrubs in Holland, Denmark, and many other flower 
growing people, but it is only of late that this article has been put up in a 
concentrated form and ground into a dry meal, perfectly sterilized, clean, and 
sanitarv so as to be used in the finest homes or conservatories as well as for 
outside use. Every particle of food is taken up by the plant, giving a most won- 
derful growth and coloring, the fruit and blossoms come out exceedingly profuse, 
with a richness of color never yet attained with any other food or fertilizer. 
Exhaustive experiments have been made with this material and Its success has 
been proven again and again beyond any doubt.
