RESEEDING LAVN. 



We have a large lawn located on a 

 hillside, which dried out in spots last 

 Slimmer on account of dryness and which 

 is now covered with a thick growth of 

 vines and weeds. Should it be plowed 

 under or spaded? What is the best lawn 

 seed to use for itf Would one- half white 

 clover and one-half lawn seed make a 

 good lawn and would spring be a good 

 time to do it inf Are wood ashes a 

 good lawn fertUizert F. W. H. 



The early part of September would 

 have been an excellent time to spade or 

 plow over the bare spots spoken of. Un- 

 less they are of a considerable size, spa- 

 ding will probably be the neatest method 

 to adopt. Clean off the weeds thoroughly, 

 or bury them deeply. It will be of Uttle 

 use sowing seed now. Better wait until 

 frost leaves the ground early in April. 

 Some thoroughly decayed old manure can 

 be advantageously worked into the soil 

 which is to be seeded. Pall is to be pre- 

 ferred to spring for lawn seeding, as 

 often severe droughts come early in sum- 

 mer and grasses started in fall are better 

 able to withstand them. 



White clover is an excellent drought 

 resister, but you must not use as large a 

 proportion as one-half, or you will 

 smother out all your grasses. As your 

 land is probably rather high and dry, I 

 would use Kentucky blue grass freely. 

 Let it form one-half of your seed. Some 

 short bottom grasses, like Bhode Island 

 bent and sheep's fescue, should be used, 

 but small quantities only of timothy and 

 red top, which succeed better in moist 

 soil. I would recommend this mixture 

 for an acre: Twenty pounds of Ken- 

 tucky blue grass, four pounds of sheep's 

 fescue, six pounds of Rhode Island bent, 

 three pounds of red top (fancy seed), 

 three pounds of timothy, two pounds of 

 white clover and two pounds of creeping 

 fescue. 



Wood ashes are a good but not com- 

 plete lawn fertilizer. Use some fine bone 

 with them. It is a good plan to change 

 the class of fertilizer each year on lawns. 

 One' year bone and ashes, then sheep or 

 well decayed cow manure and a third 

 year some special lawn preparation of a 

 high grade character. C. W.
