FINE HORTICULTURAL PEAT MOSS 
One of the best known and most widely used products for conditioning 
soiland for mulching. Except for old-fashioned barnyard manure, no 
other product so nearly fills the need for organic matter in soil. The addi- 
tion of substantial quantities to the garden will add to the soil’s ability to 
hold moisture; will aerate the ground and will so improve the texture of 
clay soils that they will not form a hard top crust. A full bale will cover 
250 square feet approximately 1 inch deep.

fungous diseases. This product is an ideal mulch for Roses, Rhododendrons, 
Evergreens, Strawberries, etc. A 25-lb. bag will cover 30 square feet,

food rich in vitamins! Use with a good commercial fertilizer, at the rate
