Cutting the Lawn 



Use a good ball bearing lawn mower, as one of this type will outwear three or four cheap mowers, and can be 

 operated with much less energy, thus making lawn mowing a pleasure rather than a task. 



It is well ,to cut closely during the early Spring, and also the late Summer months when the weather is cool, but 

 during the hot midsummer months grass should not be cut closer than two inches, because the soil is often very dry 

 during this period, and by close cutting the hot sun will be allowed to reach the roots of the grass directly often 

 causing it to die. 



Eliminating Crab Grass and Other Weeds from the Lawn 



Most weeds found in the lawn are annuals, especially Crab grass and Foxtail, growing from seed only and living 

 but one year. These are about the two worst enemies of the lawn and usually make their strongest growth during the 

 latter summer months; being an annual grass, if much care is taken in cutting the lawn close during these months so 

 they will not be allowed to produce .seed, they may be eliminated. It is best to cut the lawn frequently both ways 

 so as to be sure of destroying all seed stalks. Crab grass especially will smother out lawn grasses in spots, but when 

 the weather begins to get cold, it will turn yellow and die: then is the time to fill in these spots by seeding carefully 

 and covering them with a light coating of rich top soil that is free from weed seed. 



Nearly all weeds found on the lawn are the result of using stable manure or filthy top soil for winter covering. 

 It cannot be too strongly emphasized that as a rule, prepared fertilizers, due to their purity from weed seeds, are 

 better for the lawn than stable manure or top soil.
