“After applying Vigoro,” writes Ad 
Hennig, of Neenah, Wisconsin. “I had 
tomatoes three weeks earlier than the 
year before. They were of a better qual¬ 
ity, more delicious, and uniform in size. 
“The same success was evident with 
the rest of my vegetables.” 
Vigoro is the ideal plant food for 
lawns, flowers, gardens, shrubbery and 
trees. It is easy to apply; results are 
quick and certain. 
Clean, dustless, weedless, and odor¬ 
less! Vigoro is not to be compared with 
any other plant food you have ever 
known. It isn’t at all costly.
