emy of Sciences says: 
“I believe that Hyper- 
Humus is_ responsible 
for the general excel- 
lence of both lawn and 
plantings.”” For many 
years the U. S. Gov- 
ernment has used 
Hyper-Humus in the landscaping and planting of many 
of its Public Buildings, Post Offices, and Parks. It meets 
the Government’s standard for landscaping. and is ap- 
proved for Government plantings in Washington and 
throughout the East.
