GRANULATED IMPORTED PEAT 
Used for Top Dressing on Lawns and for Mulching 
Bulbs, Shrubs and Roses 
Granulated peat moss is a light 
brown colored virgin soil formed 
years ago by the growth and de¬ 
cay of mosses (mostly Sphag¬ 
num) and various aquatic plants, 
in and along the shores of fresh 
water lakes. It is a soil medium 
that is free from fungus and free 
from weed seeds, highly absorb¬ 
ent and retentive of moisture, 
rich in carbonaceous matter, and 
has no detrimental mineral con¬ 
tent. 
Established lawns should be covered % inch deep 
with Granulated Peat Moss in the late Fall. It will 
almost disappear by Spring. If the Fall covering has 
been omitted cover lightly in the Spring and occa¬ 
sionally during the growing season. It soon works in 
about the grass roots. 
Large bale, about 150 lbs. (cover 290 square feet 
one inch deep). Price, per bale, $3.00. 
ADCO FOR ARTIFICIAL MANURE 
Dry leaves, mixed with Adco and kept moist, turn

Adco is a powder which, mixed with vegetable 
matter and kept moist, turns the latter into real 
Manure, but without the odor, flies, etc. Directions 
enclosed in bags. Price, 25-lb. bag, $2.00.
