PIONEER PEAT MOSS 
Many garden soils are rather heavy for flower and 
vegetable growing. If you have this condition in your 
garden, spread Pioneer Peat Moss to a thickness of 2 to 
4” and work into the soil to a depth of 6 inches. Such 
an application loosens the soil and holds moisture in dry 
weather. Bales 40x21x19 inches, protected by heavy 
asphalt paper and wooden veneer strips, weigh approxi- 
mately 100 lbs. $4.50 per bale, not prepaid. 
GARDEN STAKES 
Excellent for marking rows where seed has been 
sown, these smooth, painted, wooden stakes are of 
best quality. 10 inches long; 7% inches wide. Bundle 
of 25, 50c; 250, $3.50; 1,000, $10.40, prepaid. 
STAPLED WOOD VENEER PLANT BANDS 
A heavy, well made plant band for use in starting 
melon, pepper, tomato, eggplant, etc. in green- 
house or coldframe. These bands come packed flat 
but are stapled and are easily shaped by a pinch of 
the fingers. Band need not be removed when trans- 
planted in field if directions are followed. Full in- 
structions with every order.
