pulverizing the clods. Work fertilizer into the soil and rake till smooth.

the soil to provide a firm seed-bed. Cut when two inches high and cut regu¬ 
larly. Water generously twice a week; oftener in dry weather. Pull out 
weeds and coarse grasses with a lawn weeder (see page 88) and sow seeds 
where the weeds were. For lasting results give the lawn a good application 
of fertilizer in the fall and spring. Ask jor our Lawn Grass Circular.

good fertilizer generously (see below). Stir the soil with a sharp rake. Sow
