than shade that causes those bare spots in the lawn.

Lawn makes a beautiful turf in the shady spots.

GRASS MIXTURE FOR ANNUAL SEEDING 
There are often places the sun cannot reach and usu- 
ally in these spots, grass does not thrive for any length 
of time. We suggest sowing quick growing grasses that 
will cover the ground and remain green until the late 
summer. Ground that is heavily shaded has to be 
fertilized and reseeded each year. Our annual seeding 
mixture is made up of grasses which are most suitable 
for this purpose. Sow about | lb. to 200 square feet.

BEETLE DAMAGE IN LAWNS 
Considerable damage from the larvae of the Japanese 
Beetle and the common June bug is being reported. If 
you notice brown spots in your lawn and find that the 
grass roots have been eaten, you will probably find the 
white grubs within the top few inches of soil. 
Treatment for this damage is to rake off dead grass 
and treat with arsenate of lead at the rate of 1 pound per 
hundred square feet of lawn. (See page 36.) This 
may be mixed with 10 gallons of water and applied 
as a spray, or with a sprinkling pot, or it may be mixed 
with fertilizer and applied directly onto the affected 
spots. Seeding may be done immediately after this 
treatment.
