This Tool Can Stimulate
Proper Lawn Growth
BY DOUGLAS TUOMEY

The man who takes care Of
his own property knows that
there are many spots in the lawn
where grass seems reluctant to
grow. Usually this is because the
soil is too hard or clayey and
will not permit the grass roots
to take hold.
Fertilizing does no good in
these spots, as the same hard and
impenetrable surface refuses to
absorb the nourishment. Nothing
but turning over the ground and
breaking it up seems to help.
A tool described here Is Just
the ideal gadget for this kind of
trouble. 1t can be used for pre-
pairing the surface of the ground
for seeding. The area can be a
lawn or bare spot. When COM
pared with the back-breaking
task Of digging up hard ground,
1t is a simple implement to use.
When it is employed before
seeding it permits the seeds 10
drop into the small holes made in
the surface and terminate prop
lerly without risk of being blown
Ior washed away. The toughest
surface imaginable will be pene-
trated by the sharp spikes. and
by twisting it around slightly,
1t breaks up any crust.
The implement is made by
taking a square piece of two
inch thick plank or board and
driving long. heavy galvanized
nails through it so that they pro-
trude in the manner of spikes

stains in this area. Nothing that
I have tried does any good to-
ward removing them. Have you
a SUGGESTION" Mrs. r. B. X,
writes.
Answer-When oak flooring
particularly red oak, is allowed
to remain damp. the water re-
acts with the tannic acid in the
wood to produce dark brown or
black stains. These are really
acid burns and removal is al
ways difficult and often impos-
sible. If the stains have not
penetrated too deeply, heavy
sanding of the floor may remove
them. The floor will then have
to be refinished.
Another method is to bleach
the stain with oxalic acid. Add
the acid powder to boiling water

until no more will be dissolved.
Mop this hot solution over the
stain after first removing all
varnish and wax with a liquid
varnish remover. Then carefully
brush up the powder. This acid
is poisonous and the dust is very
Irritating to the eyes and nose.
