WELL-LIGHTED YARD MAKES FOR SAFETY Floodlighting the yard and walks around the home or screenhouse makes for safety and security. This is made easier and cheaper by the self-contained reflector flood and projector spot lamps which will stand the weather. Special receptacles are available for these lamps. These have swiv- el joints to make it easy to focus and direct the lights. Recent development of a low wattage control system further reduces the installation cost be- cause wires servicing the lamps need not to be extended to the switching points, and small capac- ity wires interconnect the control switches. This means that any or all of the lights can be turned on from a number of different switch locations. MOST LAWNS NEED LIME Most lawns need lime. Without it, grass lacks the extra strength required to carry it through the summer. Ralph E. Engel, turf specialist at the College of Agriculture, Rutgers University, says that lime usually is needed at the rate of 50 to 75 pounds per 1,000 square feet, every two or three years. A soil test will tell for sure if a lawn needs lime. Early application of lime will give the most benefit to the lawn.
