Marigold : Sagetes 
In autumn when many bedding and other plants are past their prime, Marigolds afford a wealth of color

FOOD FOR THOUGHT 
As Well as For Your Flowers 
Plants, anything that grows in the soil, are exactly the same in their food needs as humans. There are 
plenty of what might be called the shot-in-the-arm kinds of ready mixed fertilizers. But, they are mostly 
only stimulants. 
_ What your plants need is a balanced organic food. Not just a stimulant. They need one céntaining in 
right amounts, those things that make plenty of strong roots, produce good sturdy stalks, thrifty foliage 
and an abundance of good sized blooms. 
That’s exactly the kind of Plant Food we use at Wayside. Much of our success in growing such unfail- 
ingly fine plants is due to it. 
What it has done and is doing for our 600 miles of plants, it will do for your garden.
