Many lawn owners not only fail to achieve these objects but also succeed in ruining their lawns by faulty mowing, states J. H. Boyce, Division of Forage Plants, Dominion Experimental Farms Service. Height of cut is one of the most imâ€" portant considerations in mowing. The common lawn grasses will not with â€" stand very closs mowing. Even when maintained at moderately short heights ordinary lawn grasses suffer because of the continual defoliation and beâ€" cause the roots, which tend to mainâ€" tain a balance with the amount of top growth, become restricted to the top few inches of soil, thus limiting their feeding range for plant food and moisâ€" ture, and consequently reducing the ability of the turf to compete with weeds and to withstand heat and drought. If the grass is permitted to grow too long, on the other hand, a spindly growth is produced and a thin, Importance of Proper Mowing of Lawn Maimntenance ture, and consequently reducing the In continental Europe, troops are in ability of the turf to compete with the ranks of sweated labour.

An Italian infantryman gives his services for $1.70 a month and the French soldier gets 50 cenis per month. But in Turkey, the scale THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO lawns never be cut to a height of less . than one inch. A height of 1‘4 to 2 inches is much to be preferred in most cases. This height encourages a dense, healthy turf, providing other maintenâ€" ance practices are correct, and at the same time permits sufficient top and root growth to «allow the leaves and roots to function properly. lligherl mowing is particularly important in shady locations where decreased sunâ€" light makes a larger amount of follâ€" age desirable and on terraces whers increased leafage and deeper root sysâ€" tems help to control soil erosion. ‘The above _ recommendations _ concerning height of cut do not apply to bent grass lawns which require very close mowing and other special maintenâ€" ance practices. In order to secure best results, a reâ€" gular mowing programme imust be folâ€" lowed based on the amount of being produced rather than on a time schedule, as is so frequently the case, It is suggested that the grass be allow-{ ed to make not more than one inc:i of new growth between mowings. Thus mowing may be necessary twice or even three times a week during the sprlng,‘ but may not be necessary oftener than once every ten days or two weeks durâ€" ing the warm months. In the fall it is recommended thai mowing be concluded at a time which will allow the grass to attain a height of 2 to 3 inches before growth ceases. In the spring it is desirable to permIt the grass to make some new growt(h before mowing is started. This will permit the new roots which are being formed at this time to become well established. It is important that the mower be kept sharp at all times. Most lawn mowers, as a rule are set to cut too low. ~The height of cut can be adjusted by raising or lowering the rollers.
