Frequent mowing will serve to keep down most weeds. The deep- 

 rooted perennial kinds, like Dandelion, should be cut out by hand or 

 with some sort of weed puller 



In shady places sow Shadyland Grass Mixture and give extra attention 

 to fertilizing and watering, as trouble under trees and shrubs is due more 

 often to fact that their roots have absorbed all food and moisture from 

 the soil, than to their shade. 



Top-dress the lawn with manure in the fall, at least every other year. 

 Frequent applications of Bone Meal (see inside back cover) during the 

 season are excellent for maintaining the rich color and vigor of the turf. 

 If the soil is sour, apply lime or wood-ashes. The latter is a particularly 

 desirable lawn fertilizer. 



Even on well-established turf it is advisable to scatter seed every 

 spring and fall. One third to one-half of the quantity recommended for 

 seeding a new lawn, is generally sufficient for this purpose. Bare spots 

 on old lawns should be dug up, well fertilized and re-sown. Thin places 

 need only be scratched up with the rake, seeded and rolled. 



Special direction for special problems will be gladly furnished on 

 request.
