Magic Water Lily Food 
Beldt’s Magic Water Lily Fer- 
tilizer and Plant Food 
Has been perfected after years 
of experimenting. Magic does not 
foul or sour the water in your 
pool and leaves it absolutely free 
of foreign colors. In our experi- 
mental pools Magic Water. Lily 
Food proved that flowers will 
double in size and that especially 
newly planted water lilies and al] 
other aquatic plants will make 
as much growth in one month as 
they would in two months if 
planted in ordinary soil. Use 1 
pint of Magic Water Lily Food to 
mix with 1% bushels of soil. 
Complete directions with every 
carton.

I have had such wonderful results 
with your Magic Water Lily Fertilizer 
and Plant Food I thought I should let 
you know about it. You surely have it 
well named; it works like magic, and all 
of my lilies, also all of my other water 
plents, of which I have a great number 
which I bought from you, grow like 
Jack’s bean stalk. Plants you have listed 
to grow 2 feet grow as tall as I am and 
I am 5 feet, 3 inches. Our garden soil is 
very poor, only sand mostly, but when I 
used it to plant my lilies and other water 
plants and put in your Magic Water Lily 
Fertilizer, you would be surprised to see 
what big, husky plants I have, thanks 
to your fertilizer.

Asphaltum Enamel 
A new pool does not have to be 
seasoned if the pool is painted 
one coat of asphaltum enamel. 
The concrete walls must be per- 
fectly dry when appiyinge this en- 
amel. Just give it one good coat- 
ing, let it dry 24 hours and it is 
ready to be filled. Black asphal- 
tum enamel also has the wdvan- 
tage of keeping algea from form- 
ing on the walls. We can supply 
this enamel in black, green and 
blue. One gallon of Asphaltum en- 
amel will cover a_ surface of 
about 150 sq. ft., all depending 
on the smoothness of the concrete 
finish.

Colored Lily Pool Paint 
We highly recommend Seal- 
ment Water Proof Paint espe- 
cially prepared for cement walls 
and lily pools. After testing 
many materials manufactured for 
this use we selected Sealment as 
the best. If Sealment is mixed 
properly and applied according to 
complete directions which are 
furnished with every can, it will 
last as long as the pool itself 
and forms a part of the pool and 
not merely a surface coating. It 
is ideal for stopping leaks in 
pools. Sealment contains no 
poisonous chemicals, however, on 
account of lime content, pool 
must be seasoned with change of 
water before placing fish in same.

My orders of water lilies, etc., ar- 
rived in grand shape. Thanks. 
Mrs. BEN WEBB.

Attached is order for a few more fish. 
Several times in the past couple years I 
have made out orders for fish from you, 
then, after meditating over the matter, 
have destroyed them. This town of Nee- 
dles is unique in one way: it has about 
the hottest climate in the United States, 
Chamber of Commerce advertisements 
to the contrary, I know. For that reason 
I was afraid a shipment of fish coming 
here from any distance would arrive 
cooked. I finally grew brave enough to 
try a small order, July 30. They arrived 
Sunday, August 9, in excellent condition. 
Water temperature was 70 degrees in the 
can, while temperature outside registered 
115. I wouldn’t have believed it possible 
had I not taken the reading myself. 
Even with coolers going full blast, tem- 
perature in my tanks averages 95 in 
summer time; but with heavy eeration, 
my fish seem to prosper and deaths are 
few. I believe your claims now, that vou 
guarantee live arrival anywhere. I again 
express my appreciation for the excellent 
condition fish were received.

I wish you to know how pleased I am 
with the shipment of fish that I have just 
received. They are all alive and in very 
good condition.

The shipment of tropical fish and 
plants came promptly and in excellent 
condition and I am much pleased with 
them. A. R. FLETCHER. 
Chillicothe, Ohio. 
Everything was in very good condition 
and the fish were fine, of course. I 
haven’t had an opportunity to try the 
heaters but I was very well pleased with 
them. R. L. GALLIAN. 
Needles, Calif. 
Fish ordered from you August 25 re- 
ceived here afternoon of September 3. 
This shipment arrived in the same excel- 
lent condition as my first shipment. 
Temperature in one can was 72 end in 
the second can 74. Thanks a lot for the 
attention given this shipment and again 
thanks for your generosity in putting in 
the extra fish. LrRoy W. Parsons.
