MISCELLANEOUS TOOLS AND FARM SUPPLIES 
HORMODIN A 
New root-forming chemical speeds rooting of cuttings. 
Hormodin A is the first Hormone solution to successfully 
stimulate rapid root growth on leafy cuttings. Hormodin as¬ 
sures quicker and better rooting of cuttings. Many species here¬ 
tofore impossible to propagate from cuttings may now success¬ 
fully be grown from cuttings treated with Hormodin. Hormodin 
reduces the time it takes for roots to develop. Hormodin comes 
in liquid form and is applied as a dilute, water solution. The 
cost is only a fraction of a cent per cutting. WRITE FOR

fruit boxes. It mixes easily and quickly in cold or warm water.
