Making a JLawn*
As a lawn Is to be a permanent
affair, the preparation of the aoll
Should be deep and thorough, and
the surface well fined and leveled.
If not already rloh the aoll ehould
be heavily fertilized. Then you can
never have a good lawn If the whol
space la covered with big treea, par
ticularly oak trees. Elm treea will
.allow grass to grow under their
shade better than most trees, and
their shade Is not so dense and thel
roots run down deep and do not dry
out the surface like oaks do .
But If you are planting- a place
and making a i awn where there arc
no trees, plant the trees and ahrub
bery around as a frame for the law
and) have an open scope of graaa In
front of the house. A dwelling com
pletely embowered In trees Is seldon
so healthy a place as one where the
Bun strikes the house, and we ubo
the porch more for sitting in shade
than we do the trees. Of course, w
want trees, and fine ones, and I am
?only insisting on a proper way to
plant them. Wide shrubbery bor
ders planted with a variety of shrub
bery that will bloom at different
times make a good border between
the trees and the open lawn.
One of the chief faults in lawn
making is the sowing of 'too' little
seed. Where Kentucky blue grass
thrives ? and It can be made to
thrive anywhere in the Piedmont
section of the South, If the soil Is
kept fertile and occaslonalyl dressed
wltli lime ? I would use three bush
els of Kentucky bluegrass an acre.
This will bo seventy pounds of seed
and that is what I always sow.
On the sandy soils of the South
ern Coastal Plain bluegrass 1b hard
ly available, but Bermuda grass will
make a very good summer lawn and
If it is mixed with Texas bluegrass
you can have a green lawn In wIut
ter when the Bermuda gets brown,
for the Texas bluegrass (Poa arach
ntfera) growB better in winter than
summer. In the far Southeast the
carpet grass (Paspalum platycaulo)
will make a fine lawn.
But to keep a fine lawn, the lawn
mower is essential. It should be
started In the sprii^g as soon as the
grasp it* tali enough to catch and
the mowing should be done once .a
week in growing weather. Cut in
this way, the cut grass can be left
to lie where cut, and will soon dis
appear and will be constantly add
IV# mulching material to the sod.
Letting the grass ? grow till tall
makes It necessary to rake it off,
tand this is exhaustive to tho soil.
Then every spring give the lawn a
'good dressing of raw bone meal, an

owing to" its late appearance tba
damage to the crop will uot be vary

"L he cotton caterpillar la rapidly
