You may not be interested in straw- 

 berry culture, but the principle of mois- 

 ture conservation and increased soil 

 temperature that stimulated this straw- 

 berry plant applies to practically every- 



thing that grows. The elimination of 

 weeds not only means less work for the 

 planter but more food for the plant. 



Use Gator-Hide this year and watch 

 a miracle at work in your own garden.
