About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ...the seed. After the land has been put in good condition it should receive about 100 pounds muriates of potash and 400 pounds ground bone per acre. A top dressing of nitrate of soda of say from 50 to 75 pounds would also greatly promote the growth of the grass. Blue grass weighs 14 pounds to the bushel, and is generally sown at the rate of three bushels to the acre. The seed sells for $1.50 to $2.00 a bushel, and can be purchased of every seedsman in the country. Some farmers plant a small lawn or orchard to this grass and save the seed for future field sowing. The seed can be best harvested by using a hand stripper, or tin fronted box, made for the purpose. This is nothing more than a box made like a dip net, with a tin front having saw teeth cut in small niches. It is pulled up through the ripened grass, and collects the seed in the box leaving the stems standing. Any man can make one in a few minutes and thus collect plenty of seed from the lawn. The grass should be cut just as the seed begins to ripen, if wanted for hay. If the mower does not leave it laying very thinly on the ground then it should be thinned with a fork, so that the curing may be done as soon as possible. Hay ought to be put up without rain or dew falling on it, and kept in good shelter. It is short, compact and nutritious and does not require so great a quantity in feeding as does timothy or other grasses. Many prefer to make a mixture of two or three kinds in order to secure a more perfect and satisfactory ration of forage. If fed in a close barn with suitable floors much of the seed will be saved and can be sown in the chaff the next spring. Mixed grasses, for both permanent pasture and hay meadows, are very desirable, and for lawns are most beautiful. For this..
