REPAIRING AND MAIN
TANNING LAWNS
Late Summer and Early Autumn Best
Season for Rejuvenating Grass Plots
in North Central and Middle
Atlantic States.

The work of lawn repair, like that oil
of the U. S. department of agriculture
is best performed in early September in
the regions south of New England and
north of the Potomac and Ohio rivers
To improve an old lawn that has run
down is often more difficult than to make
/ a new one, but if reasonably good turf
exists, it can be bettered materially by
reseeding and fertilizing. If the lawn
, is patchy, the small areas should be
! scratched with a steel rake, dressed with
| loan or compost and the seed sown on
| this. If large areas of the lawn have a
thin covering of turf it will be advan-
tageous to use disk seeder. After
seeding a second dressing of loan or
compost should be applied and the areas
rolled lightly.
In New England and the other states
of the northern tier, similar procedure
should be adopted in renewing the lawn,
but the work should be done in the
spring Care should be taken in water
ing and moving all new paintings of
lawn grass not to disturb the young
plants.
Careful attention is necessary if an es-
tablished lawn is to be kept in good con-
dition Most lawns need an occasional
application of some good fertilizer re-

ing is the best time for watering on
bright, hot days. Weeds are troublesome
in all lawns throughout the growing sea

part of June until frost. Pulling or cut

the most satisfactory way of Kidding

weeds and undesirable grasses can best
be accomplished by raking prior to NOW

that the mower blades will clip them
The use of chemical sprays on lawn
weeds has not given very satisfactory
results. On the whole. the weed prob

conditions as favorable as possible for
the turf grasses and maintaining strict
watch at all times to remove trouble
some weeds as they appear. A grass
seed mixture rich in red fescue will grow
better in shady places probably than
other mixtures. BY thorough watering
