Formosa Bamboo Canes 
Good Shade Trees are always in demand and 
nurserymen now realize that when they go to 
the labor and expense of planting a block of 
trees it pays to have every tree produce revenue. 
Crooked and “bow leg” trees are a dead loss. It 
pays to buy stakes and make every tree salable. 
First cost is very little as our stakes can be 
used over and over again. Due to present un¬ 
settled conditions in the Far East importations 
are uncertain, but we are fortunate in having a 
good supply on hand and can promise immediate 
shipment.

Granulated Peat 
Finest material for propagating purposes or 
for mixing with soil to loosen it up and add 
humus. Especially is this necessary where eri- 
caceous plants are propagated. Mixed with sand 
in your hot beds will give you a better stand of 
softwood cuttings and reduce fungus and damp¬ 
ing off. For winter mulching of lawns and for 
all kinds of flower and seed beds it is far supe¬ 
rior to manure, as it does not have to be raked 
off in the Spring and does not contain weed 
seeds. 
We are handling only the very best quality. 
All brands are not alike in quality. Some brands 
appear to be cheaper, but there is a great differ¬ 
ence in quantity packed in bale. Most cheap 
brands have 14 to 16 bushels per bale. Our bales 
run 20 bushels, dry weight. Therefore, in our 
bales you get a greater quantity of Peat. 
Due to present unsettled conditions importa¬ 
tions are infrequent and undependable, therefore 
making it unwise to list firm prices. Write for 
special quotations.
