PEAT MOSS 
K7 Large Bag, 
50 to 60 Pounds, Each $1.75 
You pay the express or freight charges. 
Order early so it can be shipped by 
freight as freight is cheaper, but takes 
longer. We have 2 kinds of Peat Moss. 
One is Acid for using with Azaleas, 
Blueberries, Blue Hydrangea and other 
acid-loving plants. The other type is 
Neutral. This is used with Roses, Shrubs, 
Perennials, Lawns and general use. 
Peat Moss is a very fine soil conditioner. 
It mellows heavy soils and helps bind 
sandy soils. It is a pure source of humus, 
needed by most soils. It is weed-free and 
odorless and helps the soil to hold mois- 
ture and retain plant food. Use 14 Peat 
Moss mixed with the soil when planting 
and you will get better results.

An ideal way to water because the water 
seeps through the entire length of the 
porous canvas and wets the ground thor- 
oughly without waste and without wetting 
the flowers or foliage. Is flexible so you 
can place it right where you want it. You 
simply put it on the end of your garden 
hose. We have tried many sprinklers and 
this is the best we have ever seen or tried.

RA-PID-GRO 
For Better Flowers, Better Lawns, Better 
Shrubs and Trees, Better Gardens 
Here is a product that we would like to have everybody 
use. When planting, you simply put 4 level teaspoon- 
fuls of RA-PID-GRO in 1 gallon of water (8 level tea- 
spoonfuls in 2 gallons water, etc.). Soak the roots of 
Roses for 3 minutes. They will start much more quickly 
and bloom much sooner. Soak roots of shrubs for 3 
minutes; roots cf trees for 4 minutes; just dip Perennial 
roots for a second or two. Strawberry plant roots are 
dipped for just a second or two. . Raspberry, Black- 
berry, Boysenberry, Healthberry roots, Grapes, Goose- 
berries, Currants and Blueberries are dipped for one 
minute. After dipping, plant right away, keeping all 
roots protected from sun and wind. When through 
planting, pour the solution around the newly planted 
stock. Then every 2 to 3 weeks, use RA-PID-GRO and 
you will get the very best results. 1 pound makes 22 
gallons of quick-acting fertilizer. 
It is marvelous for invigorating lawns. For using on 
the lawn and large areas, we have a special nozzle. 
It costs $1.50 Postpaid. It automatically measures out 
the right amount of RA-PID-GRO. However, you do 
not need this nozzle for ordinary garden use. You sim- 
ply put RA-PID-GRO in water in a pail or sprinkling 
can, then pour it around the stock you wish to fertilize. 
We realize the soil in most yards is not as fertile as it 
should be. RA-PID-GRO will overcome this and you 
will be greatly pleased at the increased growth you get. 
Try it at our risk. If you are not entirely pleased, your 
money will be refunded. Instructions on every package.
