SANI-SOIL 
Sani-Soil is the remarkable new protective mulch and soil conditioner— 
made from the short, fluffy fibers in the bark of the Giant Redwoods. It 
forms a perfect insulation against excessive heat and extreme cold, yet it 
keeps the soil properly air conditioned and lets moisture seep through 
so that the earth is constantly moist and friable. Sani-Soil is clean and 
sanitary and possesses inherent qualities which repel insects and discourage 
fungous diseases. Does not rot or make humus quickly so it can be used 
over and over again—economical and easy to apply. This amazing prod- 
uct is an ideal mulch for Roses, Shrubs, Rhododendrons, Evergreens, 
Strawberries, etc. For greenhouse use Sani-Soil has unlimited possibilities.

SUPER ADCO™ 
For making Artificial Manure. Dry leaves, mixed with Adco and kept 
moist, turn into excellent manure. So do flower-stalks, cuttings, pea vines, 
and almost any other kind of non-woody vegetable waste. Adco is a powder 
which, mixed with vegetable matter and kept moist, turns the latter into 
real manure, but without odor, flies, etc. The process is perfectly simple 
and not at all laborious. Use 25 lbs. with about 12 wheelbarrow loads of 
garden waste. (Directions accompany each shipment).

FINE HORTICULTURAL PEAT MOSS 
One of the best known and most widely used commercial products for 
conditioning soil and for mulching. Except for old-fashioned barnyard 
manure, no other product so nearly fills the need for organic matter in soil. 
The addition of substantial quantities to the garden will add to the soil’s 
ability to hold moisture through dry weather; will aerate the ground and 
will so improve the texture of clay soils that they will not form a hard top 
crust. It is impossible to mention the many spots where it may be used to 
advantage but for mulching Evergreens, Roses or Strawberries it is hard 
to beat. A full carton bale will cover 250 square feet approximately 
1 inch deep. Only 11% bu. size is mailable.

Chemical and Bacterial Aids te Plant Growth 
(NOT FERTILIZERS) 
FOR BIGGER 
AND BETTER 
CROPS 
Legume inoculants are cultures of living root-nodule bacteria and 
Legume-Aid is an outstanding brand name among these inoculants. 
Treating seeds before sowing with these bacteria causes nodules to de- 
velop on the roots of legume crops. These nodules gather nitrogen from 
the air and convert it into plant-food.

begins. Fruitone is also used on other fruit and vegetable crops as an aid 
to pollination. If the flowers of such plants as Beans, Peas, Tomatoes, etc. 
are sprayed with Fruitone a much larger percentage will set fruit or seed 
and the resulting crops will be increased.

with each bottle. Postpaid, 2-oz. bottle 50c.
