It now is quite generally recognized that practically all types of soil may be 
greatly improved by the addition of ground peat. It lightens heavy soils and helps 
to bind light, sandy soils. P. P. Peat basically is 98% pure sphagnum peat which is 
the result of glacial action through thousands of years on Arctic sphagnum moss 
which, by this action, and because covered so long with water, has not decomposed 
or fermented, but has CARBONIZED. The organic matter thus has been completely 
preserved and very highly concentrated. 
We have used this peat for nearly ten years and would hardly know how to 
get along without it. 
Because of its all-organic composition, P. P. Peat cannot burn or injure plants 
in any way. 
Being composed of millions of minute cells, P. P. Peat is an ideal breeding 
ground for plant bacteria, and provides Nature’s most concentrated organic fertility. 
P. P. Peat is capable of absorbing many times its own weight of water, so it 
not only prevents quick drying out of the soil, but also aids in maintaining a more 
uniform soil temperature—a very important factor in the production of better plants. 
When properly used, it prevents baking of the soil and aids in its free aeration. 
Greatest of all advantages, P. P. P., by a special process is inoculated with 
the greatest possible bacteria count and at present is the only product of its kind 
with a guaranteed bacterial count. It immediately inoculates the soil to which it is 
applied and so makes it at once more productive. Besides being a concentrated fer¬ 
tilizer, it makes quickly available otherwise unavailable food elements in the soil. 
P. P. P. is odorless, pleasant to use and to work, can be stored anywhere without 
danger of deterioration. 
P. P. P. is a local scientific product that has achieved wide distribution because 
of its inherent merit. 
P. P. P. is ideal for use in making lawns, flower and vegetable gardens, seed beds, 
in planting trees, shrubs and evergreens, and in greenhouse benches and potting soil.
