Ways to Improve Your Soil 
HUMUS:—In some form, is useful to all plants. 
1. Lightens heavy soil. 
2. Adds water storage to light soils. 
3. Is nature’s own food. 
Warning:—Renew every two years. 
Peat Moss:—The best all around humus. Safe and 
clean. 
Leafmold, woods clearings, dead leaves, etc. Also 
good, though apt to be unsightly, unless finely 
shredded (see below). Best for acid plants. 
LIME:— 
1. “Sweetens” the soil—that is, reduces acidity. (For 
Lilacs, ete.). 
2. Promotes decay, so provides quick food from 
humus in soil. 
3. Flocculates clay soils-—Thus making clay into 
loam. 
(Nitro. Phos. Potash)

mulch. Moisture 25 to 40%. Sold in 
~ 100 lb. bags—$1.00 each. ($1.00 covers

(344—3—2) 
Bone-dry powder of poultry manure 
and peat moss. A superb all-round food 
supply. Must be used sparingly, and

than the above. The most fertilizer you

bags for $1.00 each. ($1.00 covers 1000 
sq. feet.)

ACID:—To acidify soils the safest thing is Aluminum 
Sulphate. Spread 144 cup on 1 sq. yd. This over 2 
months slowly dissolves in water. 
Al2S04+H20 = hee (sulphuric acid) 
Al,O— (sand-like, inert) 
FERTILIZER:—All plants in gardens benefit by havy- 
ing plenty of food. 
1. Strong growth—hence increased hardiness. 
2. More flowers. Beter colors. 
3. Healthy plants—hence freer of disease and insect 
troubles. 
There are 3 main foods needed:— 
Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium. These in vari- 
ous proportions are provided in Fertilizers. See 
below, at left.

Horticultural Peat Moss 
This product has been scarce since

ed by the war. Some has been available 
from American bogs, chiefly Michigan. 
But now we are able to offer a fine, well- 
dried, clean, high-quality peat moss from 
central New Jersey, with consequent 
savings in transportation and cost to 
customers generally in the Hast. Pro- 
duct is not diced and baled, but shred- 
ded. Soft and easily dug into the soil— 
less liable to wash off beds if used as a 
mulch. No bother of breaking up hard 
chunks before spreading.

proximately 100 pounds, though weight 
varies considerably between damp and
