with sorts which do well in full light; may be used on both sunny 
and shaded areas of the lawn. In poor soil it may be necessary 
to renovate the lawn every season for several years, proceeding 
thus: Add lime every winter at the rate of 50 pounds per 1000 
square feet; fork the land lightly in the spring, and apply Saw- 
conure, 50 pounds per 1000 square feet and 20 pounds of Emerald 
Grass Fertilizer; rake smooth and sow Shady Place Lawn Seed.

These amounts will give satisfactory results 
under average conditions, but if time is not im- 
portant, and if your soil is good and rich, they may 
oe reduced. Sow Creeping Bent at half these rates. 

Sow during spring, autumn or 
winter. Avoid hot weather. 
Quantities are sometimes doubled by experienced 
turfmakers, especially when a lawn is sown in the 
spring. Heavy seeding means fewer weeds. However, 
sow Creeping Bent at the smaller rate listed above.
