It is so often difficult for amateurs to procure the right kind of potting soil that we have concluded to furnish it to our customers at practically cost to us, including packing. It will be the same that we use in our extensive green- houses. It is composed of sod and rotted man- ure, thoroughly turned and mixed several times during the year it takes to prepare it, when it is considered fit to use. As needed we mix with it peat, sand and pure raw ground bone meal—it is then friable, rich, and will cause plants to grow and bloom luxuriantly. PRICE, 25c. per peck bag, 75c. per bushel bag, $ per barrel (purchaser to pay freight)..
