Loosens soil—ideal for top dress¬ 
ing on lawns and for mulching bulbs,

Our imported peat moss will do 
wonders for any tight soil and im¬ 
prove the moisture holding qualities 
of any soil. We recommend mulch¬ 
ing established lawns from *4 to 
1-inch deep either in the fall or 
spring. Use peat moss on your rose 
and flower beds, around shrubs, or 
anywhere you desire to loosen soil 
and hold moisture.

important. Very fine seeds should be plant¬ 
ed on the surface and pressed into the 
soil, then sprinkle over the surface a 
light mulch of finely sifted manure or 
silt. This will keep the soil from crust¬ 
ing and aid germination. Medium sized 
seeds should be planted % to % inch 
deep, while larger seeds such as Sweet 
Peas, should go deeper. A light mulch 
should be spread over all seeds planted, 
as it is the best method of keeping the 
soil moist and cool. Water with a fine 
spray to avoid washing the soil from the 
seeds. When large enough, thin young 
plants from 2 to 12 inches apart, de¬ 
pending on the variety. Give them plenty 
of room to develop, allow plenty of mois¬ 
ture and good drainage and the results 
will surprise you.
