GOLF CLUBS TO PLANT
TWO MILLION POUNDS OF
GRASS SEED THIS YEAR

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-Golf clubs
will use 2.oo0,O 900 pounds of grass
seed this spring for seeding the $500
links extant and for planting approx.
imateiy zoo new courses, according to
the estimate made by seed dea,er.
The outlay of golfers for grass
seeds is approximately 100000 a
year.
The department Of agriculture has
discovered that the surest n quick.
est way to produce putting greens is
by rolling into the prepared ground,
cutting of grass. pulled from the
propagating beds. The buried grass
roots sprout may freely and sturdily
making a fine green in a couple OF
wee15s. whereas the tender blades
from reed need be nursed for a whole
season before tho green as useable.
AS golf clubs spend from $4,000 to
$50, 900 yearly for the upkeep OF their
links, the cost OF seed is a small per.
centags of the total upkeep.
