FOR SEEDING DOWN NEW LAWNS AND RENOVATING OLD ONES 



In seeding down a lawn or grass plot, first, prepare the ground so as to 

 have a fine, smooth seed-bed; second, put on plenty of seed; third, 

 start the lawn mower as soon as weeds are tall enough to catch the machine, 

 and keep them mowed off close till the grass has time 

 to start and become well established. The seed should 

 be lightly raked in and the ground made smooth with 

 a roller.
