Began feeding it on Plantabbs and is now beautiful, healthy and new fronds bursting out. Take a look at the beautiful fern shown above. Would you believe that a year ago it was sickly, with leaves turning brown and withering, ap- parently ready to die? It hardly seems possible that PLANTABBS could have made so great a change in so short a time— yet here is the actual photograph to prove it. Let us tell you more about this fern. Twenty-two years ago it had just a few fronds, small, delicate ones like all young plants. Patient care and kindly attention nursed it through the next two decades and up till recently it was greatly ad- mired because of its great beauty. Then, about a year ago, like a worn out piece of machinery or an! signs _of ill health, The fronds turned brown and died at the tips, no more new shoots a , and its, owner, becoming di Knmud, sold it to us. We, of course, knowing it was %reolubly survini, for lack of food, began feeding it PLANTABBS immediately. The photograph above gi some idea of how wendarllfil itm improved . under the PLANTABB treatment. If you could see the fern itself and notice the many new shoots coming up and its surprising health, rich color and growth since receiving the proper food, you ‘wouldn’t allow any plant in your house or garden go another day with- out PLANTABBS. PLANTABBS are little tablets aged human body, it began to show just chock full of good-things for| plants_and flowers to eat. Ferns and all other potted plants grow like magic when fed PLANTABBS, and outdoor plants and flowers re- spond just as quickly. Florists and rofessional gardeners use PLAN- "4sBBS, because they are more ef- fective than the finest fertilizer. La- dies like them because they are easy- to-use, clean and have no odor. For best results start using PLAN- TABBS now! ' They come in 25-cent, 50-cent and $1.00 packages, and the professional size containing 1,000 tablets for $3.50. Full directions in all sizes.
