BARTELDES & CO., LAWRENCE, KANSAS. FANCY MIXED LAWN GRASS SEED, HOW TO MAKE A LAWX. The ground should be spaded deeply and thorough ly, and a good compost of decomposed and finely pulverized manure or rich loam spread over the ground. It would be well, also, to give a sprinkling of bone dust. Then use a slanted tooth harrow and' a light or medium roller until the soil is smooth,: even and firm. Then sow the seed and harrow again' and smooth off with a common garden rake. When the grass has grown two or three inches in height,, use the lawn mower guaged to cut full one inch above' the ground; repeat the same as often as it grows to that height. The weeds and foul grass can be kept, down and destroyed by the repeated mowing. If this! is neglected they will spread and take possession of the soil, but being constantly clipped, the leaf and seed stalks are destroyed and the foul vegetation disappears. As a guide for the proper quantity to order, we may state that one pound of Fancy Mixed Lawn Grass is sufficient to thoroughly sow an area of twenty feet by fifteen feet—300 square feet; or to cover an acre five bushels will be required. It should be borne in mind that, in order to produce the best results, grass seed for la wns should be sown at least twice as thickly as if sown for hay.
