T HERE is nothing more essential to a rural or suburban residence than a beautiful lawn with its close, velvety turf. In sowing down a lawn be 
sure the soil is perfectly clean, and if poor a good dressing of loam should be well spread over about three or four inches deep. After 
being well rolled and raked very tine the seed may be sown broad cast and as evenly as possible, then rolled down. In a few weeks the 
grass will appear and be ready for cutting, which operation should be often performed, using the scythe until the lawn be well established, when 
it may be cat with machine and rolled as frequently as required. Sow per acre from three to four bushels.
