TEN FALL FERTILIZERS FOR LAWN WathlnQton, D. C. To attmulAt* the growth of i lawn and to liriprov# it* ap* p+aranre for the following spring, no bitter treatment can »>e rrronunrn<lrd than the application of properly rotiei manure in the late fall, ar'ordltig to the United Si-itea department of Hgvicul lure's KpeclfUist. This application should not bn made until after the frost* have etopped t/ie growth of the grass Ten to twenty two-hor»# load* should he np plied to the arte, according a* the Mill is more or less rich. ft 1* most important that the manure should he thoroughly trotted before ap plication so that dl weed seeds are kill ed; otherwise damage done b; weeds will more than offset Ih* fertilizing value of the application.

Lei It stand a whole tear through sninmcv and whiter, forking It over two or three times during the year It wf 1 then ho ready for use on the l iwns and d uigrf from weed seeds will be maintained Ground Bone Meal and Wood Aahea. Many people object to the use of ma nure at all, not only because of the dan- IPV from weed seeds, but because of Its unsightly and insanitary appea ranee. These will undoubtedly prefer to use something else, and the most economi cal substitute Is finely ground bone or bone meal This should be applied at tfce rate of from s*K> pounds to on® ton pei acre, according ns the- ground Is more- or ess rich It should cost be tween K’f* and $&6 n ton. With the I ►one meal It is derivable 10 use double the quantity of wood ashes. These ashes contain consider able lime In a ven desirable form, as wall as other valuable elsments.
