 A^iii{;cc kJ|JCi.iai Liawil varass oeeu by careful experiment and comparison. It produces a smooth, 

 velvety green sward of attractive appearance. In preparing the ground for seeding, break it 10 to 12 inches 

 deep with plow or spade and pulverize thoroughlv. The surface should be raked perfectly level to prevent the 

 formation of pools after heavy rainfalls. Sow the seed carefullv and evenly at the rate of one quart to a 

 space equal to 15x20 feet; two bushels .will sow one acre. After sowing, cover the seed by raking or harrowing 

 It. Rolling is also in general practice. Seeding mav be done at anv time during spring, summer or fall, but the 

 best results are obtained by sowing during April, May, September or October. Where fall sowing is practiced, 

 a top dressing of manure is recommended to protect the roots of the young grass during the winter. Price: By 

 mail, 45c. per lb.; in bulk, by express at purchaser's expense, 35c. per lb.
