A Beautiful Lawn and How to Make It It is universally conceded that nothing contributes so much to the beauty and attractiveness of the Home Grounds, the Park and the Cemetery, as a smooth, uniformly rich-green, well-kept lawn, which, to be perfect and a pleasure to walk on, should have a firm yet elastic and carpet-like surface. To secure this, it should therefore be the first consideration in laying out or renovating old grounds. Turfing with fine old pasture sod, at one time a popular method of making a lawn, is now almost entirely superseded by seeding, because of the expense and difficulty in obtaining good, clean turf. On the other hand seeding is not only inexpensive but is in reality the only means of securing a fine and permanent lawn, depending only for its complete success on the thoroughness with which the ground is prepared, the quality and quantity of the Seed sown, and the subsequent care of the lawn. Our extensive experience in the seeding of lawns and experi- ments with all kinds of lawn grasses have demonstrated beyond a doubt that while many kinds are valueless, being too coarse or bunchy or otherwise unsuitable, one kind of grass alone can not be relied upon, in our climate, to produce and maintain a fine lawn. It is only by using a proper combination of several suitable varieties, sown liberally, that satisfactory results can be obtained. CURRIE'S LAWN GRASS MIXTURES are the result of years of study and careful observation, and, if our directions are followed in seeding, they never fail to produce quickly a thirfty growth of fine, velvety, rich green grass, continuous in verdure from early spring to winter, and creating a springy, dense, carpet-like turf and perma
