Nothing adds so much to the attractiveness of a country place as a well-kept velvety lawn. In order to secure this it is necessary that, the proper grasses should be sown.

With our mixture, oats should never be sown, as our seed comes up quickly and strongly, and is better without than with them.

The lawn is now ready to be sown. When the seed is sown a light harrow should again be applied, and after that a thorough rolling given, so that the surface is made as smooth as possible.
