PEAT MOSS 
Up-to-date flower growers 
keep a supply of imported Peat 
Moss constantly on hand. By 
its use heavy soils are made 
more friable, mellow, less likely 
to bake, and better aerated. 
Light sandy soils hold moisture 
better. Good for mulching. Peat 
Moss with some fertilizer added, and a little lime, makes an 
excellent substitute for stable manure, with the advantage 
of being free from weed seeds. Keep on hand a mixture of ^ 
sifted garden soil, }4 sand, and peat moss. Use this for 
seed sowing, transplanting, and potting. Peat Moss is the 
modern medium for packing and storing Cannas, Dahlias, 
etc. Clean, odorless and pleasant to handle. 
Comes in compressed bales which will “fluff up” into about 
20 bushels. We have this product shipped to you by freight 
direct from the wharf in New York Harbor, which accounts 
for our low price. Most houses get from $3.50 to $4 per bale. 
1 bale, $3.25; 2 bales, $6.25; 5 bales, $15.00
