LAWN-MAKING 



The essentials for a fine Lawn are: First, a rich, well-drained soil; Second, careful preparation 

 of tlie ground, making it as Una and smooth and mellow as possible; Third, a wise selection of seeds; 

 Fourth, sowing at such a time as to give the young plants a chance to become well-established before 

 being subjected to very dry or cold weather or to the direct rays of the hot summer sun. However 

 much care is bestowed on the soil and seed, no lawn will be beautiful without frequent mowing and 

 rolling. Too much care cannot be exercised upon the selection of grasses, as some varieties are most 

 luxuriant in spring, others in summer, others again in autumn, and a combination of the proper sorts 

 is required for a perfect carpet-like lawn. I have given much thought to this question and made 

 many experiments to secure the best selection. I think my White House Mixture is the best possible 



for permanent lawns. It may be planted early in spring or fall and should be sown at the rate of 50 

 to 60 lbs. per acre; much more is required than for hay or pasturage. If sown in the spring, sow as 

 early as possible, making the surface very fine and smooth, then raking it over and sowing the seed just 

 before a rain, which, if the surface has just been raked, will cover the seed sufliciently. If the expected 

 rain does not come, cover by rolling with a light roller. For fall seeding, sow before the fall rains and 

 early enough to enable the young grass to become well established before very cold weather, when a 

 light dressing of Pure Raw Bone should be given; i lb. of this mixture is sufficient to sow 400 

 square feet. 



SHADY PLACE MIXTURE. On nearly all lawns there are shaded, bare and unsightly spots on 

 which the owners have difficulty in getting a stand of grass; for such places this mixture is adapted

LAWN ROLLERS 



The Use of a Roller on Lawns 



The benefit derived from using a roller on the lawn, 

 especially in the spring, is not fully understood. The 

 action of freezing- and thawing causes the ground to 

 heave, and if the sod is not firmly pressed back with a 

 roller before hot weather, the gross is apt to be killed 

 or injured, leaving tlie lawn full of bare spots.
