Directions For 



Grass is Nature's Carpet, ;in(l when a lawn i> 

 composed of suitable grasses, compactly- eoveiing the 

 entires uifai-e. it Iwcomes a surjiassing jdeasure and 

 ornamentation. The eye never tires of the delicate 

 evergreen so restful to the sight. Lawns should be 

 sown with blended gras.ses, which will hold their 

 green through the hot, dry summer, and not lose color 

 during the "freezes" of winter. A first-class lawn 

 will continue indefinitely its lieautiful. velvet surface, 

 ahd can Vie kept in f»erennial freshness by an annual 

 top-dressing of |»ure raw bone. A level surface is 

 preferr«fl for lawns to avoid washes at the time of 

 severe freshets, but a gentle incline may be desirable 

 i:nd is certainly beautiful. Springtime and autumn 

 are the favorite seasons for making lawns, but any 

 time from eiirly spring to fall will do. unless a severe, 

 protra<ted drought prevails. Spade deeply, make the 

 grounfl fihe. sinfKith. and mellow; then rake the soil 

 and ^>w the seed. If a rain occurs, simnlt-'neouslv

Seeding a Lawn. 



I with the -eed sowing, it will cover tlie seed enough; 

 but if dry, the s()il should be pressed with the back 

 of a spade or rolled with a light roller. A suitable 

 fertilizer should be incorporated with the soil wlien 

 the lawn is being prepared, and bone is prefeiTed 

 because its fertilizing quality is gradually imparted 

 to the soil, and its eflfect is lasting. A top-dresser 

 at any time imparts new thrift to tlie sod. Be care- 

 ful to sow the secfl regularly and evenly over the 

 entire surface, otherwise bare s])aces will disfigure 

 the lawn; but when this happens rake over the bare 

 places and sow seed there. Be liberal in the us<i of 

 seed when making a lawn, for if done rightly, a 

 young, healthy, beautiful, velvet green sod will soon 

 delight the eye and reward all labor and e.xpense.
