HOW TO A> ATTRACT i VE !
LAWS
Raleigh, Sept. 8. ? "How can I secure
a good lawn?" and "What can I do
tp restore the fresh and velvety ap
pearance of my lawn?" are two ques
tions coming constantly to horticul
tural workers of the State College Ex
tension Division.
"We have found" says C. D. Mat
thews. Chief of the Division of Horti
culture. "that the most satisfactory
way to renovate the old lawn is o
make a liew one; consequently dlrsc
tions ft* establishing a lawn will ap
l/!y to |hos; who ask both o? the above
questions. The time of year is ap
proaching when work on establishing
a satisfactory lawn can be done with
advantage. Much work on the lawn,
usually done under high pressure In
the busy, crowded months ot April
and May, may be very successfully
performed with com|\aratlve leisure In
Autumn. At this time the soli is In
admirable condition for working."'
Mr. Matthews statu that It is not
easy to have a good lawn but it care
ful attention is given to the different
factors Involved one may be secured
thatwlll be a source ot satisfaction to
the home owner. It ft impossible to
get soil too good for making' a lawn.
The best soil is a rich loam contain
ing a fair portion of clay with a ten
dene y to be rather heavy and com
pact and fairly retentive of moisture.
It should be deepand porous so that
the roots can penetrate deeply. Wet
soils should be properly drained, and
sandy soils Improved with humus. The
soil around new building Is generally
unsuited as it consists mostly of un

'fertile subsoil mixed with building
debris. In such a case soil from a
cultivated field should be hauled in
to a depth of 12 Inches.
A reasonably fertile soli should
be plowed or spaded to a depth of 6
inches, An application of 1,000 pounds
of lime per acre should be spread
ever the surface. Since the lawn is
permanent proposition every means
should be taken to bring the soil into
a high state of fertility. One thousanr
pound s to the acre of equal parts of
ground bone and cotton seed meal
v ould be p ralue.
"For eastern and central Carolina."
says Mr. Matthews, "the type of grass
es to be grown will depend on whether
or not the lawn can be watered regul
arly and given good attention. It the
iiwn can be given the best of atten
tion 100 pounds per acre of a mixture
made of equal parts of Kentucky Blue
grass creeping Bent grass, -Sheep fes
cue and Perennial rye grass is recom
menced. This mixture should be seed
ed in October or November after the
ground has been properly prepared
and the fertilizer added.
"If it is impossible to water the
lawn regularly it will be necessary
tc use a combination of Bermuda and
rye grass. Bermuda may be regarded
as the permanent lawn grass in the
l&wer Piedmont and Coastal Plain of
the South. It i b a rapidly creeping
gruPE, makes a substantial growth in
warm weather but unfortunately suf
fers from cold and turns brown as
frost touches it. Though the roots are
frermanent and will survive the win
ters, the tops die and it Is necessary
to use a companion grass to give a
green appearence in winter. By sow
ing in October a generous amount
of perennial rye grass on the Bermuda
sod and adding at the same time a
good application of bone meal and cot
ton seed n]eal a green cover may be
had throughout the winter. The Ber
muda lawn may be secured by sowing
the chopped up runners in March or
6 pounds per acre of the Bermuda
grass seed may be sown in eary
Spring."
