: Afterwards harrow or rake carefully, pulverize all 
lumps and remove all large stones. Soil may be enriched by bone meal or sheep manure 
fertilizer wherever necessary, then rake level and roll the soil well to make a solid bottom. 
Sow in March, April and May, also September and October. Scatter the seed evenly over 
the surface at the rate of one pound to 20x20 or 400 square feet, except where noted other- 
wise. Rake seed in and roll, water regularly and carefully, as the soil is liable to dry out 
in the heat of the day, and if it does while the seed is germinating it will invariably perish. 
When the grass is 3 inches high it should be cut and rolled, and repeat until the grass has 
become firm. A liberal dressing of Vigoro Fertilizer at this time will invigorate the growth 
and give the grass a rich, deep green velvety appearance.
