First Aids for Better 
Water Gardening 
Fine Fish and Lilies Are 
Easy to Keep That Way 
As the world’s largest producers of goldfish and all 
kinds of water plants, we have, by necessity, learned 
much about caring for them in sickness and in health. 
Years of experimentation and trial have shown to us 
those foods on which fish and plants thrive best, and 
those treatments which most quickly and most effi- 
ciently cure the various ills which may beset fish. 
All fish and plant foods, pool treatments and pool main- 
tenance items listed on this page are products we use 
ourselves, and we guarantee that none better can be 
found. 
Planting Tubs 
The tubs we now have are the 
best we've found for plant and 
fish culture. They are of white 
cedar, 20 inches diameter at the 
top, 10 inches deep, and of ex- 
cellent cooperage, being tight 
enough to set on a porch or ter- 
race without seepage. Long life, 
either standing out or sunken 
into the ground. $2.85 
Planting Boxes 
Almost all water gardeners 
with whom we correspond pre- 
fer this size, shape and type of 
incidental planting box. The 
boxes are cypress—best water- 
resistant wood we know — 15 
inches square at the top, 10 
inches square at the bottom. Fill 
them, plant your lilies in them, 
then set them into the pool just 
where you want them. $2.00 
Concrete Enamel 
This especially formulated 
non-poisonous paint enhances 
the appearance of aquariums, 
lily pools, swimming pools — 
any concrete which is constantly 
under water—taking away that 
drab wet cement look. It is a 
restful shade of sky-blue, espe- 
cially chosen to give the water 
an attractive, natural back- 
ground. $1.50 quart can, $5.25 
gallon can, express collect. 
- postpaid. 
If fish develop tail rot, 
fungus or similar disease, our 
Fungus Cure will cleanse 
them if applied soon enough. 
As a preventative, our Fish 
Dip is considered first grade. 
Each item, with directions, 
35c per box, $3.60 dozen 
boxes. 
Fish Food 
A granular, perfectly balanced fish 
food, exactly what your brood fish 
need for spawning, and what small 
fish need for full and rapid growth. 
Our fish thrive on it. The finest, least 
expensive fish food available. Pint 
package 65c, quart package $1.00, 
Both fish and pools fall heir to vari- 
ous ills from time to time. Seldom 
are they of a serious nature, but they 
do demand attention. If your pool is 
not properly balanced, or if for some 
other reason it develops a green scum 
or algae, our Algae Treatment will 
correct it. Use it with confidence, ac- 
cording to directions, for we guaran- 
tee it will not injure your fish or lilies. 
Fish, in a run-down condition, can 
become infested with lice. Lice are 
introduced into a pool most frequently 
by the purchase and addition of cheap, 
run-down fish. If our Lice Remedy is 
applied before the fish are too weak- 
ened and run down by infestation, 
several treatments will cleanse them. 
Directions on package. Each treat- 
ment 50c per can, 3 for $1.25.

Fertilizer 
Hardy water lilies, tropicals and 
lotus thrive in a mixture of two- 
thirds good topsoil and one-third 
well rotted cow manure. But they 
attain finest size, color and vigor 
only when that mixture is enriched 
further with a balanced fertilizer. 
Our fertilizer has been developed 
over a period of many years and 
is especially adapted for water 
garden culture. We use it, and we 
recommend it heartily. Two pounds 
75c, 3 pounds $1.00, 5 pounds 
$1.50, 10 pounds $2.75, 25 pounds 
$6.00.
