Highlights of Lawn Care You remember I told you in our last little chat that weeds are the result of thin, sickly grassâ€"and that the best way to improve the| grass and get rid of the weeds is to feed theâ€" grass. 1 recommended that you use a complete plant food, one that supplies all eleven of the food elements your growing things need from the soil. And you reâ€" member I stressed the point that lawn feeding should be done good and early, so as to give the grass a good head start over the weeds. Feed, Reseed Early By early feeding, I mean just as soon as the frost is out of the ground the first two or three inches. After you‘ve given the grass a square meal you can wait a bit, till the soil is completely thawed out and dry enough to work. ‘Then go after the places where the grass was killed last summer. Try to anâ€" alyze each spot and see what caused MmODERATE PRICES! QUALITY 163 2. CLEANERS & DYERS Dealers in Oriental Ruga the trouble. If the soil had too much clay in it, so that it baked hard and dry, spade in some sand or finelyâ€"sifted ashes to loosen it up. If on the other hand it was too sandy, so that it couldn‘t hold water muhlotthmmnllxu by mixing in heavy loam, or peat moss, or wellâ€"decayed mulch such as last year‘s dead leaves and grass clippings. Then mix in some complete plant food. If you‘re working on small patches of ground, use about one heaping ublupoonfull of food to every square foot. On larger areas you can figure two quarts to every 100 square feet. Mix it well into the soil, working it down three of four inches into the ground. ‘Then apply your grass seed, using the very best seed you ean and plenty of it. Rank the seed lightly into the soil and water gentâ€" ly but thoroughlyâ€"and don‘t let the soil ever get really dry until the new grass is growing strongly. Now I‘d like to say a word about rolling a lawnâ€"a subject very few people really understand. A lawn should be rolled just once a year, and there‘s only one correct time to PROTECT YOUR FURS The beauty and long life of your furs depend upon the systematic and careful attention given to them during the warmer seasons. do it..

Now, about cutting grassâ€" let it get three lndu'm in the spring before you cut it the first time. If it‘s newly planted grass, set your mower to. cut no closer that two inches. If it‘s pretty well established, you can cut it down to an inch and a half. And it‘s wise to use a grassâ€"catcher on your mower; clippings left on the lawn tend to form a sort of mat that hurts the grass. 3 And now just a word ~about watering. It‘s a good idea to water your lawn less frequently and do a more thorough job of it. You see, fresuent light waterings draw the grass roots up near the surface. Then when the sun gets good and hot these shallow roots dry up and die. But if you give the soil a real drenching, get it wet down at least three or four inches, your grass will grow deep, strong roots ::& will resist hot weather much er. t Miss Isabel O‘Brien, for many years a resident of Highland Park living at 415 Sheridan road, passed away April 7th at Lake County General hospital, where she had been a patient for some time. drapes. ,:I'In rlem will be rich e r n usix 7 Dc Get rid of the dirt and grime DRAP ES DdIsCOUNT CASH AND CaRRY
