Care should be taken when mowing or watering the newly seed ed areas to avoid disturbing the young grass. This caution always applies in a measure to fall seeding, although there is not so much danger of damage in the case of the latter. Fertilising. The management of tho lawn after it ls once established is an extreme ly important matter .and there are a few general practices that should be followed carefully. Beginning In the early spring, the first thing to do ls to remove with a rake the top dress ing that has been applied the fall be fore. After removing this it is us ually advisable to apply nome fertili zer, ovjen though- the soil in already reasonably fertile. One of the very best fertilizers for the lawn in the spring it nitrate of soda, but on ac count oj} MB quick action and tts caustic effect extreme caution should be used in its application. Five pounds of nitrate ot soda are sufficient for 1,000 square feet of lawn, and if ap plied In solution with the watering pot and the grass then thorougl ly watered with a hose, there Is little danger of i-caldlng. Bone meal is probably the best commercial fertili ser to use on a lawn, considering the danger-from the misuse of ni tarante of soda.' Bone meal can be used with out taking any special caution in ita application, aa lt ls in no way injur ious to the grass. Eight pounds to 1,000 square feet is a liberal applica tion. Any commercial fertilizer that fa used should be applied early In the spring when the grass begins to grow. In fact, bone- meal can bo used to ad vantage every month during the grow ing season, except perhaps July and August. Fertilising ?through the sea son ls especially beneficial In keep ing tho grasa, stimulated at tiraos when lt would otherwise he more or lesa Inactive. Pulverized limestone aa'a top dressing is very helpful, and an application of this substance can be made either la the fall, winter, or spring.. Lime corrects the acidity ot the surface soil and ur useful In checking the growth *tf moss and va lions other plants that are detrimen tal to the grass.
