You Can Grow Better Plants With These Helps 
Thanks to recent developments in insecticides and fungicides, it 
no longer takes a whole string of chemicals to take care of your 
nursery stock. The few shown here are ample for the average home, 
and easy to use. We have chosen for you those we think are best— 
Du Pont for insecticides and fungicides, plus Hyponex for plant food.
