Our Native Peat 



To grow Azaleas and Rhododendrons successfully 

 you must have leaf mold, peat in some form or some 

 similar substance. We have used Russian, German 

 and Holland Peat., leaf mold collected from under trees 

 in our local forests, but by far the best material we have 

 ever used is a form of native peat, a deposit of which we 

 have found near here. It runs from twelve to twenty 

 four inches thick and is composed of thoroughly de- 

 cayed leaves, and other material in a maple s~ -3.:v.r 

 which has been generations in the making. The D B 

 Dept. of Agriculture are users of this material. 



If you would like to try it we will send you a two- 

 bushel bag for $1.00. Will quote special prices on car- 

 load lots or less. Try a sample bag. ^e believe you will 

 like it so well you will want more.
