dressing of Wizard Sheep or Cattle Manure, 100 Ibs. 
to 1000 sq..ft., or Bone Meal, 125 lbs. to 2000 sq. ft. 
Careful preparation of the ground, making it as fine 
and smooth and mellow as possible; a wise selection 
of seeds; sowing at such a time to give the young 
plants a chance to become well established before 
being subjected to very dry weather or to the direct 
rays of the hot summer sun. Too much care cannot 
be bestowed upon the selection of grasses, aS some 
varieties are the most luxuriant in spring, others in 
summer, others again in autumn and a combination 
of the proper sorts is required for a perfect, carpet-like 
lawn. It may be planted early in spring or fall and 
should be sown at the rate of 75 to 100 pounds per 
acre. If sown in the spring, sow as early as possible. 
Never work your soil while wet. This will sour 
the soil and your lawn will turn yellow during the 
growing season.
