Every time ynu mow the lawn yon take oflf a erop, and during tbe entire season these crops amontit to a large weight of grass. Wben the lawn is mowed the roots are stimnlated to renewed effort, the object of the plant being to produce seed and fulfill their purpose of reproduotion. No grass plot can stand this frequeut cropping without succnmbing unless the land is supplied with plant food to replenish the soil with that which is removed. A misture of 100 ponnds per acre of equal parts of nitrate of soda, sulpbate of potash and sulphur phosphate applied three times d.uring the year from early spring to October, with a liberal dressing of manure in November and wood ashes in Marcb, will give the lawn new life. Mrs. Morris and Miss Condón are spending the week in Jackson and attending the diocesan convention.
