Peat Mess 
The Great Soil Conditioner

We offer three outstanding types, to fit special needs.

Another is acid in reaction and must be added to soils 
when growing Blueberries. The third is neutral, and 
recommended for general planting—a fine mulching 
for lawns and gardens. Peat Moss lightens the too heavy 
soil, gives body to sandy soils and helps retain moisture. 
Weed free; odorless.

Packed in large burlap bag, approximate weight 
90-100 Ibs. 
(2) Acid Peat. Use this when growing Blueberries. Dig 
a large hole for each plant, then mix one bushel 
of Acid Peat with one bushel of soil, filling the hole 
with this mixture and pack firmly around the roots; 
water thoroughly. Furnished in large burlap bag, 
approximate’ weight 50-60 lbs. 
(3) Neutral Peat. Soil conditioner par excellence. For 
gardens, lawns, ornamental borders; especially 
fine for evergreens and roses. Use about 14 Peat 
Moss to 34 soil when planting. Packed in large 
burlap bag, weighing approximately 60 lbs.
