Gloucester Fishing Craft Aground on Rocks Careful Preparation Needed To Grow Lawn Growing a really beautiful lawn is much harder than keeping grass out of row crops where it is not wanted, said Glenn O. Randall, horticulturist at State college. . To establish a. good lawn, prepar ation of the soil should start at least one year before planting time. The first step is td grade the grounds, if necessary, then apply plenty of organic matter to provide plant food and to keep the soil from baking hard. Green manure crops such as soy beans or cowpeas may be plowed under, or rotten stable manure and leafmold may be spread over the ground at the rate of one to two cubic yards for each 1,000 square feet. After the manure has been work ed in, broadcast fertilizer over, the area and rake r disk it in. In the mountain section apply about 500 pounds 4t8-4 fertilizer per acre. The ground should be firm be neath the surface,' but should be loose, fine, and mellow on top. The best 'time to seed a lawn in North Carolina, is the last of August or first of September. Use only the best seed, divide the seed into two parts and sow each part .at right angles to the other to in sure uniform distribution. Harrow or rake in the seed, but don't cover it hem with more than half an inch . of dirt. A good lawn can be sown with 40 pounds of Italian rye grass and five pounds of white clover seed per acre, with Bermuda grass root cut tings dropped six to eight inches apart in eight to ten inch shallow furrowa. Put in the cuttings, cover them up, the.n sow the seed. -s- SAT" iV mmmmm 'ifr-r 'aa r .l1 9o9 An. ill i.&Cff r- 5 www. 4 0 Ripped by jagged rocks where she ran aground ofl Gloucester, Mass., the 100-foot fishing seiner, Uncle Sam, was pronounced a total loss by coast guardsmen after being abandoned by her captain and crew.
