PLANT HORMONES AND 
s VITAMINS 
Chemistry has now provided the gardener 
with tools as important to the successful

spade. These tools are in the form of hor- 
mones and vitamins that invigorate all types 
of plants and that stimulate root-growth so 
that plants thrive better, are more drought-

uf ARSPLANTONE 
TRANSPLANTO 
is a vitamin-hormone 
stimulant for rooted

wider range of soils 
than B-1 alone.

applied in water solu- 
tion to the soil around 
the roots of plants, 
shrubs, trees, and 
seedlings. It increases 
root-growth, vitalizes the plant generally and

planting.
