PEAT MOSS IN THE GARDEN 
Peat Moss is Nature’s answer to the gardener’s two most 
perplexing problems-—how to correct a defective soil, and how 
to provide a source of constant moisture supply. 
A good practical peat moss represents the best combined 
efforts of nature and man. The quality of the moss is de¬ 
termined by the conditions existing during the formation 
of the peat itself. The moss is vegetation in a state of 
arrested decay, obtained primarily from old lakes that have 
been drained. 
Just as nature has provided for England the woolen in¬ 
dustry, and for France, wine, so are Sweden and Germany 
favored as the source of the finest peat moss. 
The less humid climate and the more severe winters, es¬ 
pecially in Sweden, have favored the growth of the one 
particular species of sphagnum moss which is the purest, 
most absorbent and least decayed of all deposits of peat moss 
so far discovered. j 
To these natural advantages is added a superior method of 
processing, cleaning and preparing for the market, as in 
both of these countries the peat moss industry is recognized 
as a primary one. 
The result is a clean, finely granulated product, fluffy, 
porous and highly absorbent that has no superior for chang¬ 
ing a heavy soil into one that can be penetrated easily by 
plant growth, or for providing body and water-holding 
powers to light soils. 
Gardeners who have never used peat moss will be sur¬ 
prised to discover its useful properties in the all-year-round 
garden program. 
Soils which are not naturally good, because of too much 
sand or gravel, which lack life and vigor, or are stiff,, hard 
clay, difficult to work, cold and uncongenial, can readily be 
corrected by the addition of generous quantities of granu¬ 
lated peat moss. It provides humus (without adding weed 
seed), promotes helpful bacterial action and creates an ideal 
friable, loose, porous soil. Hard-caked top crusts become a 
thing of the past, and tedious cultivation is no longer 
necessary. 
The cell-like, fibrous structure of peat moss enables it to 
absorb and hold water, just like a sponge. Everywhere, 
gardeners are finding that peat moss gives a natural moisture 
reservoir which saves water, conserves seed and plants and 
produces a more vigorous and luxuriant plant development. 
Peat moss is harmless. It will not burn or injure the 
plants, regardless of the amount used ; it is also odorless, 
pleasant to work with and when used as a mulch, adds to the 
neatness and attractiveness of the garden. 
For lawns, for preparing the soil for garden beds, seed 
flats, greenhouse benches, for rooting cuttings, as a summer 
or winter mulch peat moss is a ready and efficient aid, truly. 
Nature’s gift to gardeners. Per bale of 6 cubic ft,, $2.00;
