HILL EVERGREENS 
GPM Peat Moss is a virgin soil, formed centuries 
ago by the growth and decay of mosses and various 
aquatic plants. It has many uses in gardening. 
1. Organic material, contributing to humus con¬ 
tent of soil. 2. Assures constancy of moisture about 
the plant root level. 3. Has special root growth 
promoting substances. 4. Lightens heavy clay soil. 
5. Binds and holds moisture in sandy soil. 6. Free 
from fungus growth and weed seeds. 7. Clean, odor¬ 
less and pleasant to work with. 8. Economical to use. 
9. Good winter mulch, as it insulates soil against 
frequent freezing and thawing effects. 10. Good sum¬ 
mer mulch, as it conserves moisture and prevents 
soil from baking and crusting. 11. Reservoir for 
plant food. 12. Fine medium for packing and storing 
bulbs, roots and fruits. 13. Enables you to grow 
healthier evergreens, as it supplies a desired acid 
reaction. Mix with top soil at the rate of 25% Peat 
Moss and 75% soil. 14. Good basic soil material for 
lawns. 15. Conveniently packed. 
“GPM” is packed in tightly compressed bales, bur¬ 
lap wrapped, well sticked and wire strapped. And, 
each bale of “GPM” contains twenty (20) bushels of 
loose Peat Moss—even though the bales will be of 
different weights—which will cover between 250 and 
300 square feet, one inch deep. It is not sold by weight 
because the weight of the bale is dependent upon the 
technical moisture content at the time of bailing and 
varies in accordance with atmospheric conditions. 
”GPM” is of superior quality and the finest medi¬ 
um that money can buy. There is only one “GPM” 
brand—the pioneer Granulated Peat Moss, in all 
America.
