UNITED 
PLANT FOOD 
A balanced diet for your lawns, 
shrubs, gardens, and potted plants. 
Growing plants must eat and have a 
balanced diet just as human beings. 
Nature in the raw usually provides the necessary plant 
foods in the soil for vegetation, but the constant feed’ng of 
the plants for a period of years and erosion has naturally 
reduced the original supply of plant food to such an extent 
that the plants are stunted, and in some cases the plants 
literally starve to death. 
It becomes necessary then that this plant food be restored 
to the soil, in order that the plants may have a healthy and 
vigorous growth. It is here that UNITED PLANTFOOD 
comes to the rescue by supplying this needed nourishment. 
In addition to the major plantfood elements—nitrogen, 
phosphoric acid and potash, VITAMIN B-1 and the following 
rare mineral elements—manganese, boron, zinc, iron, copper, 
rare mineral elements—manganese, borax, zinc, iron, copper, 
sulphur. magnesium and calcium have been added to UNITED 
PLANTFOOD LAWN AND GARDEN FERTILIZER. 
The addition of VITAMIN B1 will make plants more vig- 
orous than even nature and virgin soil could. It develops root 
systems and enables plants to withstand longer periods of dry 
weather.

PLANT MAGIC 
Vitamin B1 Tablets 
Vitamin B-1 develops and invigorates roots of plants. 
Therefore, to get best growth and bloom results, since larger 
root systems can assimilate more food, you should fortify your 
soil with a good plant food after three weeks of B-1 use. It 
is especially valuable in transplanting. It prevents shock and 
wilt, making a greater number of plants grow and saves one 
or two weeks which are necessary for the plants to recover. 
After root'ng cuttings use Vitamin B-1 and they will grow 
much quicker.
