PEAT MOSS 
We consider Peat Moss to be one of the most valuable 
materials for conditioning soil which we have yet found. 
Peat Moss is remarkable in its ability to absorb and 
retain moisture. 
We use a large amount of Peat Moss in our green¬ 
houses and in the open ground. Soil mixed with Peat 
Moss makes ideal material for seedlings and potted 
plants. It has good drainage and will not crust or bake 
after watering. Peat Moss becomes incorporated in the 
soil and adds humus to it. 
HARRIS’ PEAT MOSS is a very superior brand finely 
granulated, and free from any foreign matter. It is 
put up in bales, enough to cover more than 250 square 
feet 1 inch deep. 
Price—Single bale $2.75; 3 bales or more at $2.60 
per bale. Purchaser pays transportation. Write for 
prices on larger quantities.
