Ox of the principal elements of success in 
the growing and flowering of plants and nN 
bulbs is proper soil. No matter how much gy 
care and attention are given afterwards,if the as 
soil is not right best results cannot be at- an 
tained. It is so often difficult for amateurs 4 
to procure the right kind of potting soil that 
we have concluded, after many solicitations, # 
to furnish it to our customers at practically 
cost to us, including packing.

POTTING SOIL. 
HIS ‘Prepared Potting Soil’’ will be the 
same that we use in our extensive green- 
* houses. It takes a year or more to prepare it 
by first placing a layer of inverted sod, cover- 
ing it with alayer of rotted manure, then 
another layer ofsod,andso on. This ‘‘mold 
’ is allowed to stand about six months, 
the last six months, when it is considered fit 
yx. to use. As needed we mix withit peat, sand 
and pure raw ground bone meal—it is then 
friable, rich, and will cause plants to grow 
and bloom luxuriantly.
