make a good mixture on Dela-
ware lawns, Mr.. Vapaa said. On
sunny ground, sow rs percent
bluegrass and 25 percent fescue.
A $3.50 mixture will do we'll on
shady spots. Apply the seed at
the rate of three to four pounds
per 1000 square feet of lawn.
Since both grasses are fairly
slow starting, add 10 percent of
red top to the mixture for more
rapid growth.
No time interval is needed be-
tween seeding, fertilizing and
lining lawns, the agricultural
agent said. Spread 5-l0-10 fer
tilizer before seeding at the rate
of 20 pounds per 1000 square
feet of lawn.
Mr.. Vapaa said the lawn
should be kept moist until seed
ings get established. Then u.s.
ual watering practices can be
put into operation.

Fall Seedlings
Aid Lawn Growth

Fall lawn seedlings have been
suggested by George X. Vapaa,
county agricultural agent. Fall
lawn seedlings have less COM
petition than in spring from an
nual weeds.
Fall seeding allows the grass
to get established before hot
summer weather, and it will
probably have more moisture
too.
The agent recommended a firm
compact seedbed with clods
broken up. If the area has just
been filled, be sure a good rain
has fallen or the soil is watered
down and has settled. Other
wise the land may settle un-
evenly, causing a poor-looking
lawn. On established lawns, use
rake or similar tool to rough
up at least a one-half inch of
loose soil. Then SOW and rake
in seed, and roll or wet down
to firm the soil.
MIR. Vapaa said that seeding
over an old lawn without pre-
paration is waste of time and
money, because little of the
new seed will be covered. Seed
should be put in not more than
one-half-inch deep on both new
and old lawns.

SURVEY PLANNED
FOR GEORGETOWN

The District Commissioners
again will seek funds for a sur.
vey Of old Georgetown to de-
termine which buildings are
worth preserving.
An $4,000 item is included in
the city executive Offices pro-
posed $4,000 budget for the
fiscal year beginning next July
i. A similar request for the
current budget failed to clear
Congress.
The proposal is an outgrowth
Of a dispute over the Com
missioners' application of the
Old Georgetown Act, which
was aimed at preserving struc-
lures with historical and archi-
tectural value.
The survey would produce
needed information for deci-
sions by the Commissioners on
requests to build, renovate or
raze Georgetown stru ctures.
The 1850 act. which authorized
such a survey. gave the Federal
Fine Arts Commission advisory
authority on such requests.
Also included in the proposed
budget was about $31. 1000 to
finance staff operations Of the
Human Relations Council
Funds for the staff have come
from q $4,000 private grant,
which will run out in October.
The city's public relations unit
requested $4,000, an increase
Of about $1,000 over its current
budget. The extra money would
be used to hire a fifth staff
member and for camera equip
ment and overtime pay.
The total budget for the
executive Office, as recon-
mended by budget officials, is
about $4,000 higher than the
current figure.

and economy in the city oper-
alton.
Instead, the number has
grown from 10000 to $4,000
and 1t seems to be constantly
going higher" he said. He
declined to suggest which de-
partments might cut their en-
ployment figures.
The budget proposed to the
District Commissioners by their
financial aides for the fiscal
year beginning next July 1
totals $248.2 million. This is
higher than the current years
budget by $50 million.
The proposed increases in
clude higher taxes on real
estate, cigarettes, beer and
liquor. Removed would be ex-
emptions from the unincor-
porated business franchise tax
and the levy on local telephone
service.
Speaking for the 400-member
merchants group, Mr.. Kane
pointed out that the downtown
business area, while represent.
ing only 2 per cent of the city's
land area. pays 20 per cent Of
Washington's revenues.
Mr.. Norris termed the neces-
sity for such tax increases ire
grettable" but said the Board
of Trades official statement Is
awaiting further studies.
He released the following
comments, however:
I'VE have had some discus
sions with officials Of the Dis
trict government respecting the
fiscal outlook for the next few
years and it would appear that
IL additional revenues amount
ing to more than $12 million
are needed, the program adj
vocated by the finance oficer
is pretty well conceived.
THE proposals are being
studied now by our staff and
the Municipal Finance Com.
mittee and the committees
recommendations will be for.
warded to the board of di.
rectors promptly, after which
the ofiicial position of the
Board Of Trade concerning the
proposed additional levies will
be set.
AT this time, ] can only
say that it is extremely regret.
table that the people Of this
community must be subjected
to still further tax increases
on top Of the very heavy ones
enacted in the last several
years. primarily because the
Congress has failed to appro-
pirate funds representing an
equitable Federal payment in
an amount authorized by the
Congress"
