Peat Moss 



19^2 bu. bale 



Mulch your rhododendrons, kalmias ferns and roses with Peat Moss. An 

 ideal mulch for your bulbs and lawn. Used in proper proportions will bring 

 your soil to the highest state of physical condition. It helps to bind together 

 and give more body to loose sandy soil; it will break up and render more 

 friable heavy clay soil: it makes all soil easy to work, highly retentive of 

 moisture so that it will hold the plant food which has been dissolved in the 

 soil moisture; it will prevent baking and caking, develop necessary soil bac- 

 teria and in general condition your soil so that it is sure to produce better 

 crops or flowers. 1 bale #4.25; 5 or more bales, #4.00 per bale. 



THE IDEAL PLANT FOOD 



This article is a plant food of very high quality; a specific. It is prepared 

 especially for Lawns, Flowers, Shrubbery and Gardens, Fruit and Ornamental 

 Trees and Vines. 



It is a complete plant food, containing all the necessary elements except 

 those present naturally in all fairly good soils. 



With thorough preparation of the ground, and with good drainage, and 

 under the influence of the air, light and warmth and when used as directed, 

 BAUGHGRO is almost a miracle worker. In its make-up emphasis is laid, 

 first — on the element nitrogen or ammonia, which encourages luxuriant green 

 growth; second — on that valuable element, phosphoric acid, one of the es- 

 sentials to healthy growth to hasten maturity; third — on that element or 

 constituent potash, which has so much to do with firmness and excellence of 

 plant tissues. All of these three elements are derived from unexcelled high- 

 grade sources and processed in well-balanced combination. 



BAUGHGRO is odorless, it does not contain any weed seeds and it will 

 not injure the hands. 



50 cts. per 5 lbs., #1.75 per 25 lbs., #3.00 per 50 lbs., 

 #5.00 per 100 lbs., #47.00 per * 2 ton, #90.00 per ton.
