In making a new lawn it is of the utmost importance that the ground should 
be free from weeds, and to attain this end a thorough summer fallowing is the 
best method. Before sowing the ground should be carefully raked, and then 
.■^own evenly, and lightly raked in, after which it should be well rolled or 
'• tamped " down with the back of a spade. New manure should never be used, 
on account of the numerous weeds which it is sure to produce, lb. 30c.
