Aid to Lawn

From Mrs. L. H. p, 46O8 Rus
sell avenue NE. What should !
do this fall to improve my
lawn? Answer-It is quite likely
that an application Of pulverized
limestone, turf food and blue
grass seed could be helpful. A
soil test is needed to tell the ex-
act amount of lime needed. It
can be obtained from the Soils
Laboratory, University Of Mary
land. This test is free only to
Maryland residents. Approx
mately as pounds Of a 1864 turf
food per 1000 square feet
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-09-22

should be adequate. For sunny
lawns use / pound Of common
Kentucky blue grass seed per
1000 square feet. Apply the lime
and the fertilizer first-the seed
a week later. Don't tear up your
lawn.

vice workers, while the relative
demand for unframed and unskilled
workers is declining with a pre-
sently heavy Over-Supply.

cations does not represent the

unemployed. Anyone may file an
application for work. and some
who are looking for Jobs better

were filed by $4,000 individuals.
These people either had never
filed a work application before
or, if they had. it had been so long
since they contactedthe local office
that the application was obsolete
due to more recent work exper-
ience and training. Of all new ap-
plications received during the
