THE CHAS. G. CURTIS CO., 
HUMUS FOR PLANTING 
Our humus is actually a natural leaf mold soil. It differs from other 
commercial soils in having a texture more like a forest leaf mold, than a peat. 
By scientific experiment it has been determined that our product contains 
a very high plant food value as well as high in acidity and moisture holding 
properties. 
We will be glad to send you a sample on request.
