PLANT FOODS For SpPEcIFIC GRroupS—SpRAYS Ro 
For Healthy, Vigorous, Profuse, Blooming Roses 
Roses are really easy to take care of although one wonders sometimes 
from the many things that have been heard if a 24-hour watch is not 
needed. We would like to dispel this frightening idea with simple 
directions for care. 
Roses, like all plants, thrive on being well-fed. We recommend either 
AGRICO ROSE FOOD or FARMANURE. Mix this with the soil 
before planting new Roses or place on soil around plant and hose in. 
AGRICO ROSE FOOD 
Is an especially formulated plant food to supply the 
elements—both organic and inorganic—essential to the 
growing of finer Roses. We suggest applying at the rate of 
a good handful per plant.

Roses and we recommend its use at the rate of at least two double handsful

Dusts and Sprays for Roses 
Roses are the favorites of the Garden World and unfortunately some 
insects and diseases find them choice too. To combat this we advise a 
weekly DUST or SPRAY, using 
DU PONT’S FLORAL DUST 
This is a complete control of many insects and diseases affecting flowers 
and is especially effective on Roses. (Controlling such things as leaf spot, 
mildew, aphids, beetles, etc.) Comes in Dust Gun for easy application or 
may be mixed with water and sprayed on. This is NOT a major operation !

MULCHING ROSES 
Is particularly beneficial and desirable. A 2 to 3 inch application of Peat 
Moss will not only keep the roots from drying out but will eliminate to a 
large degree the weeding between plants. You will find Peat Moss listed 
under MULCHES on page 38. 
RA-PID-GRO 
THE FOLIAGE PLANT FOOD FOR ALL TYPES 
OF PLANTS 
SAFE—EASY TO APPLY—FAST-ACTING 
This remarkable balanced plant food may be sprayed on the leaves 
and absorbed quickly through the leaves or may be applied when 
watering plants and absorbed through the roots. RA-PID-GRO 
may be mixed and applied with most insecticides and fungicides— 
thus eliminating one entire spray process. 
There is no danger of burning or overfeeding. It is very inexpensive.

For Flower and Vegetable Gardens 
A beautiful flower garden is becoming more and more popular along 
with the increased interest in flower arrangements. Also, with the 
advent of a freezer in almost every home, fresh home-grown vege- 
tables are more and more in demand. To help you obtain these desired 
results, we suggest using AGRICO for GARDENS as a plant food 
or one of the following: 
AGRICO FOR GARDENS (5-10-5) 
This is a special-purpose fertilizer for flowers and larger yields of vege- 
tables. Rake in after spading soil before planting. After planting, make 
an application from time to time using 40 lbs. per 1000 square feet.
