Here's the formula experts call ''perfect'

Every growing thing must have food.
Every food - from eggs and bacon to
hay and nitrogen - is a chemical mix
ture.
The chemicals that make your blood
and your brain are different from those
that make your bones and teeth. And so
with plants: leaves and stalks must have
nitrogen. Cell-walls, fruit, flowers, and
seeds must have phosphorus. Stems,
roots, and sprouts must have potassium
(potaSh). And they must have other
things: manganese, copper, boron, zinc.
In Nurish, you win find all of these,
tions: 20% each of nitrogen, phosphorus
and potassium - not 5-10-5, not 15-30-15,
not 10-52-17. Naco scientists took the
necessary time and care to discover that
20-20-20 was erGctly right for sure and
best results.

Why this amazing new scientific discovery will
give you 'dream garden"-or your money back

Agricultural scientists have long
known that chemicals would increase
plant growth. But Federal, State, and
private laboratories discovered that
chemical combinations which worked
well under one set of conditions did not
fit the needs of others.
Naco had to find q combination that
would exactly fit the needs of home
gardeners like you.
So Naco scientists gathered informa-
ton from government agencies, from
experimental laboratories all over the
country, and tested one combination

PerenniuIs
Are Foundation
For Gardens

PerennlalS are the sturdy basis
on which most gardens are built.
Some gardens with busy owners
or owners without transcendent
love for nursemaiding plants are
completely made of them.
In the garden flower family
there are, broadly, three kinds Of
plants: perennials, ANIMALS and
diennials. Perennials are the ones
which flower year after year. after
surviving our cold winters.
Perennials range from the SUM-
loving to the shade-loving. Some
bloom early in the season, like iris
and bleeding heart, while others
come along in late August and
September like chrysanthemums.
Some like dry spots, other flourish
in wet grounds. BY careful Selec-
ton. proper placing and modest
amount of attention, the garden
owner can achieve succession of
bloom and have dependable plants
Towering in a variety Of locations.
Modest in Bloom.
Generally speaking, perennials
are more modest in their bloom
than the ANIMALS. Few of us would
like to contemplate a garden
composed entirely of ANNALS. be-
cause it would mean starting a
garden from scratch each year
There are. literally, thousands
of perennials from which to
choose in building a garden. There
are tall perennials as we'll as short
ones. With such a wide selection
available, every gardener has the
pleasure and privilege Of picking,
choosing and experimenting until
he has found a combination that
is pleasant. OF course no garden
is static, because half the JOY of
gardening is finding new things,
and developing ones. perennial
collection is particularly fasci-
mating.
Peonies Need Care.
There are the peonies, the old
fashioned ones, which demand
considerable attention, much fer
tilizer and have a short period of
bloom; and are worth every Sec
ond spent on them. Iris, another
of the spring blooming plants, isl
almost indispensable - bearded,
beardless Siberian or japanese.
So are bleeding heart, from the
small ones to the giants. They
are right handy to have around,
fiourishing in the shade as they
do.
Then comes columbine; a IA
vorite is the old-fashioned kind
Of purple blue, although there are
other, modern varieties. And del
phinium, Oriental poppieS which
make a brilliant splash of color,
delicate forget-me-n -nots of pink
and blue, the big dianthus family
and tall spreading phlox.
There are the small, brilliant
and long blooming coral bells, the
big lily family, lupine with their
fat spikes, airy gypSophila, fox
glove, the various and vari-coloredI
members of the daisy family
primrose, bee-balm which attracts
the hummingbirds and then, come
cooler weather at the end of the
summer, the chrysanthemums.
Those are just beginning-18I
perennials arbitrarily picked from
huge list. Most of them are not
too fussy about soil, are modest
in their appetites and most re-
warding in their habit of return
ing each year to life and new
bloom.

Copper or ferbam sprays will

Co.. Fletcher Turns Godqeeer Talents Toward Both Peace and War

While on q vacation trip year
or so ago, 1t. Col. Maurice j
Fletcher. an Army prosthetics ex-
pert. drove past a well-stocked
trout stream.
Col. Fletcher, an inveterate fish,
|erman, stopped and reached for
his fishing tackle. But the tackle
was buried beneath all his luggage.
Results:
/. No fishing that day.
2. No trouble on that score now.
Col. Fletcher, director of the
Army's Prosthetics Research Lab
|oratory at the Walter Reed Army
Medical Center. went home and
developed a small fishing rod
which fits in a car glove compart-
|ment.
Extended, the fishing pole is
about 18 inches long. But it can
be collapsed OF half that length.
Develops Reel, Too.
"I'm a nut on compact devices, =
says Col. Fletcher, who has now
developed a pocket-sized reel to
|go with the rod. The handle
folds back against the reel when
not in use.
Col. Fletcher also got tired of
Juggling around a heavy grill to
cook the fish he caught. So he
got an old cartridge case. built
|collapsible metal sides for it. and
made a small cooking surface.
Five pieces Of charcoal supply
enough heat to do all the cook
ing necessary at any one time.
He also has made collapsibie
minnow net. which slips into the
pocket like a large fountain pen,
and a fishhook case the size of a
cigarette package.
Col. Fletcher. who lives at 1897
South Wakefield street, Airing
ton. holds some 80 patents on
gadgets, as well as items neces-
sary in modern warfare.
During World War II service
with Army Ordnance, he devel-
|oped an automatic valve for use
when the MI rifle has a gre
nade-launcher attached. and ar
Automatic traverse mount for the
0-millimeter mortar.
After the war, the Army wanted
somebody who could "gadgeteer'
to head up their all-important
search for better artificial arm
and hand devices for amputees.
Col. Fletcher seemed to be Just
the man. s..
Under his close supervision, the
Walter Reed laboratory has de-
viSed the vastly improved arti-
fetal hand. This can be used as
easily as the better-known hook
and has fingers which can be
opened or closed.
Col. Fletcher points out it is
hard to measure the efficiency
of human hand, but says he
figures the mechanical hand can
do about rs per cent of the things
a human hand can.
Col. Fletcher began the invent
ing business while a boy in Des
Moines. Iowa. A magazine he
picked up one day listed several
things which a person could in
vent and make million dollars.
