self will make a very good sod in a 

 short time. 



When the seed is sown it is a good 

 idea to cover the ground very lightly 

 with straw, as this saves considerable 

 watering, and watering with us in the 

 summer and f alL is often the most expen- 

 sive part of gardening. However, it is 

 necessary to keep the surface of the 

 ground constantly moist until the grass 

 comes up evenly. In about three weeks^ 

 at this season, it will be ready for the 

 first weeding, after which if any spots 

 appear bare a handful of seed may be 

 sprinkled on them. 



With Australian rye grass it is equally 

 as important to properly water, although 

 when th3 grass has grown for several 

 months it wUl get along with consider- 

 ably less attention. It roots very deep- 

 ly, will grow in almost any location and, 

 making such a dense mat, it chokes out 

 all foreign weeds in a short time. It 

 will stand considerable abuse from 

 tramping without dying out and if cut 

 suflBciently oftsn makes a very fair 

 sward. If allowed to go too long with- 

 out trimming it is very difficult to cut, 

 and then makes a very poor showing for 

 several weeks. It will stand for several 

 months with hardly any moisture and in 

 this regard is quite the reverse from blue 

 grass. The principal trouble with the 

 latter is to get it to survive the first 

 winter, for it is easily killed by too 

 much water or shade, but if once well 

 established it makes an ideal lawn and 

 lasts for years if noxious weeds are kept 

 from getting a foothold. It needs trim-
