ering shrubs, fruit bushes, and trees. A 
liberal application mixed into the soil

The success of your garden depends upon the quality of the soil. All plants need ample plant-food. By ample is meant not only the quantity but also the availability. 
The soil must hold plant-food and moisture, yet be in such condition that the plant roots can absorb what is needed. It should be sufficiently rich in humus or decayed 
vegetation to absorb excess moisture and hold it for later use. It should have enough clay to give it some body and enough sand to make it porous and friable. But even 
with a perfect soil, plant-food must be added each year to replace that which is consumed. 
Cow-Manure. [ dry pulverized form 
peri eet AES and easy to handle. This 
is an ideal soil-builder and mulch, particu- 
larly for perennial beds. It is fine for lawn, 
garden and greenhouse and excellent to mix 
with compost. When used for top-dressing 
it works down into the soil leaving no 
waste to be raked off later. 50 Ibs. $1.75;

apply. This complete all-organic fertilizer 
and soil-conditioner is free from weed 
seeds, insect infestation and trash of any 
kind. The peat moss prevents burning as 
it holds the plant-food and moisture until 
they are used up by the plant roots. Dri- 
conure is ideal for top-dressing lawn or 
garden. 50 Ibs. $1.75; 100 Ibs. $3.25; 500 Ibs.

= [awn or garden is a pure 
organic material similar to leaf-mold but 
of finer texture and is non-acid. Humus

soils lighter in character and more aérated; 
binds together sandy soils; and increases 
the moisture-retaining quality of all soils. 
It its odorless, dry, and easily handled, and 
absolutely free from weed seeds. Fine for 
mixing with potting-soil. On new lawns, 
apply 100 pounds per 60 square feet. In

Granulated Peat Moss 
It is a well-known garden fact that mechanical soil-condition contributes largely 
to the success of any garden. Granulated Peat Moss, incorporated liberally into the 
soil, prevents baking and crusting, improves aération, contributes to the formation of 
humus, lightens and makes the soil more friable, acts as a reservoir for soil-moisture 
and concentrated plant-fertilizers, and assures maximum root-development. 
By mixing Granulated Peat Moss liberally into the soil at the time of planting, 
you will be assured of more luxuriant growth of flowers, lawns, and shrubbery during the 
growing season. 
For mulching purposes, it is used extensively both for summer 
moisture-retention and winter-protection, about roses, evergreens, perennial beds, and 
shrubbery.
