Botanist Says
Rake Up Leaves
for Lawns Sake

Other Professors
Agree.

Lincoln. Oct. 3f.--"There is as
much excuse for man to allow the
leaves 10 lie on his lawn as there Is
for him TO go without shaving" DR..
E. II. Barbour of the University Oh
Nebraska declared today. DIR. Bar
bour's beautiful gardens have Tor
wears been the object OF admiration
here. and he has gained more than
local reputation for his knowledge OF
plant life.
.Why should leaves be allowed TO
lie on the lawns" he continued,
when you can buy for 81 more fer
tility than you can get from leaves
in many years. l believe that 1t mas
been shown that a quarter inch OF
humus is produced from a layer Oh
leaves in a century. and that is
hardly sufficient excuse for the ugly
sight of leaves covering a beautiful
lawn.
THE best lawns that | know OF are
those that are most carefully cut anu
raked." he said. Instead of leaves
helping a lawn they may actually 90
il harm. When wet leaves overlap
they will smother out lawn ana
leave bare spots. | know OF no rea-
son for ugly sights and sounds ana
noxious smells, and lawn covered
with leaves is an. ugly sight. nave
found that blue grass luxuriates
when no leaves are allowed to lie on
it."
Several years ago the subject ~
allowing leaves TO remain on law"
was a bone of contention between
DIR Barbour and the late DR.. Charles
p Bessey. DR.. Bessey always main
tained that the leaves were helpful
and another Of his theories was that
fine lawns we're produced by allowing
the grass TO go to seed.
Professors Paul Sears and h. D.
pool of the university botany depart
nent were interviewed on the SUD
ject of leaves.
Pool said the fertility value OF
leaves ON lawns is nil, and that the
only value is that they may protect
the grass against winter XIII when
there is no protecting blanket Oh
snow. He agreed with DIR. Barbour
that they may damage the lawn II
they become wet and matted. HIS
term was that they might burn out
the grass He advised that the
leaves be piled up to form composite
heaps that will have fertilizer value
after several years.
Sears said leaves will not add 10
fertility of soil here. because the ch'
mate is not wet enough. In east
ern communities. where there Is more
moisture, it would. He advises bury
ing of the leaves, after soaking them
thoroughly, and then digging them
up after n year and spreading on
lawns in. the spring. lie Is not GER
tain whether leaves left on the lawn
