SEEDING IN FALL GIVES GRASS CHANCE TO ROOT Lawns in the North can be given a good start in the early falb. Thorough preparations of the ^oil before seeding is an essential to success. Plough or spade up the area to be sown for a depth of about 12 inches. Level and pul verize well. Rich topsoil is needed for the feeder roots and if the ground is not rich fertilization should be resorted to and well rotted ma nure is excellent for this pur pose. Heavy soils can be given a coat of lime. Be sure the fertil izer is near the top as grass roots do not run deep. The fall rains will usually give grass sufficient root development so that it will not winter kill. Use a quart of’ standard lawn grass mixture to 300 square feet. After sowing rake lightly and roll. Lndvr many trees large leaves VAN1LA flavoring Special fl/W0RlNG ^TracAl 50' HGO~D BROS."" th« will smother the young grass. Kentucky blue grass, red top and white clover are commonly used. In the South the conditions arc different and good lawns are dif ficult to grow-. Bermuda grass, St. Augustine grass, blanket or car pet grass, special mixtures and Italian rye are used. Sowing the area twice, but crossing the direction the second time, is recommended by most experts.
