LAWNS WITHOUT WEEDS.

At last. the NEEDLESS lawn! Needless,
moreover. by inexpensive scientific treat
ment and not through back breaking toll.
This has ben announced possible to every
home owner, gardener and cultivator of
the open lawn. 1t win mean much to
this adult fraternity. hut Willie and his
gang are the ones who will truly bene-
fit. as that ancient slogan, you can't
go till you've weeded the lawn" is num-
bered with, the ages.
For centuries gardeners the world over
have sought for a fertilizer which would
grow grass but discourage weeds. 1t has
been proved at Rhode Island State col
lege. after 20 years of experiment, that
the secret lies in using ammonium sui
phate instead of nitrate of soda for the
annual fertilizing.
Nitrogen is the chief element in grass
food. Heretofore gardeners have sup
piled this through applications of nitrate
Of soda. But the soda tends after n
time to create an alkaline condition of
the soil. detrimental to grass and stimu-
Iating to weeds. 1t has been found that
the ammonium sulphate, on the con-
trary. supplies the nitrogen just as well,
yet promotes an acid condition of the soil
encouraging the growth of grass but
weakening the weeds so that they are
eventually crowded out Naturally this
requires some time. But the encOurag
ing thing about it is that the ammonium
costs no more than the soda, and is work
ing with the gardener instead of against
him.

Although it does not appear in news
paper accounts, possibly NJ. z. Maurice
of this town prefaced his remarks at the
legislative hearing on education in Mont
pelier last week by the statement that
they were not based on his experience
with or knowledge of Brattleboro schools.
He should have done so, at any rate, for
however much Mr.. Maurice may know of
educational methods in general he hasn't
lived in Brattleboro long enough to speak
with authority on the efficiency of the
local school system. Brattleboro always
has been proud of its schools, and per-
sons who have watched them over a per-
icd of years Know that their improvement
has been continuous. For this reason
they dislike to think of the differences
