A Beautiful Lawn 



There is nothing which adds more to the external attractiveness of a home than a beautiful lawn. You may have 

 such by providing the right conditions. These are: 



First. — A rich, properly prepared soil. If the ground is naturally rich, all that is necessary is that it be well spaded, 

 making it as fine and mellow as possible. If, as is often the case, it consists of the earth from the excavation for the 

 house, or is hard and lumpy, it should first receive a good dressing of manure which should be spaded in, mixing it with 

 the soil which should be made as fine and free from lumps as possible. It should then stand for a few days and if pos- 

 sible until after a good rain, when it should receive a second dressing of manure and be again spaded, making it fine 

 and free from lumps to the depth of at least a foot. In some cases it may be necessary to repeat this a third and even a 

 fourth time. In any case the surface of the soil should be made as fine and smooth as possible before sowing the seed. 



Second.— We must have good seed of the right varieties. Some sorts are the most luxuriant in spring, others in 

 summer and still others in auturan and a wise selection of varieties in proper proportions is very important. We have 

 given much thought and made many experiments to secure the best selection and think our Central Park Mixture the 

 best po.ssible combination to secure a fine lawn. 



Third.— It is important that the seed be properly planted. It should be sown at the rate of from 100 to 150 lbs. to the 

 acre. The more freely the seed is used the quicker a thick, velvet-like turf may be secured. One pound of seed is the 

 minimum quantity sufficient to sow 40) square feet. It may be sown in early spring or in the fall, but if at the latter 

 time it should be early enough to allow the plants to get well started before the ground becomes frozen. The surface 

 having been freshlj^ raked, sow the seed as evenly as possible and rake it in following if pos.sible with a roller. Having 

 secured a good growth, it should be kept close and velvet-like by repeated cutting, and if necessary, watering.
