Injury to tho grass, bypropor spray
ing with an Iron sulfato solution.
Ordinarily, four or fivo applications
aro required. Tho first spraying should
ho mado in May just boforo the first
blooming period. Ono or two othors
should follow at intervals' of threo 6r
four weeks; and finally ono or two
moro m the lato summer or fall. Dur
ing tho hot, dry wonthor of mid-summer
spraying should ho discontinued
becauso of tho dangor of injury to thh
grass. A conspicuous .blackonlng ot
tho lawn which follows each appli
cation would disappear if tho grass Is
growing vigorously. Of tho otler com
pion lawn weeds, somo aro killed
Lwhllo others aro but slightly injured
by tho spraying. Unfortupatly, whit a
clover is also killed. Spraying should
bo supplemented by tho nso of fertil
izers and tho application of grass sooj
in tho spring nnjl fall of oach year.
With proper management it is neces
sary to spray only about overy third
year In order to keep a lawn practi
cally freo from dandelions.
Our experiments nt Geneva, New
York indicate that nt least threo (or
usually, five) .thorough applications
during, a se.nson nro necessary to
orndicate tho dandelions from tho av
erage lawn in this state. To be the

when tho leaves nro throe or four
ln,ches long. This forces tho plnnts to
use upthelr reserve food stored In
the roots, nnd eventually starves
them. On tho Station lawns, which
were exposed to dandelion seeds from
adjoining untreated lawns, it was
found necessary to spray overy sec
ond or third year, and to supplement
tho spraying with other control
measures.
Tho tlmo of application appears to
ho Important In our tests, tho host
results wore secured .when tho Jlrpt
application was mado In early spring
Tho spray solution Is prepared by
dissolving ono and ono-halt or tvo
pounds-ot iron sulph'nto (also called
copperas and green vitriol) in oach
gallon of wntpr. Tho weaker solu
tion appears to bo ontiroly satisfac
tory, and is probably tho ono to bo
proforrcd. Used at this strength tho
quantity of Iron sulphnto (required
for a Blnglo application is approxi

phate for spraying purposes is usu
ally offered for salo in tho granular
or "sugar" form, which Is readily sol

expensive, costing, usually, from ono
to two dollars per bag of one hundred

solution should bo prepared in wood

dolions depends, to a consldornblo ex
tent, upon tho manner in which it Is
applicjl. Tho best results aro secured
whon tho solution is applied In tho
form of a flno mlRt-iko spray woll
driven down among tho follago.
Wlillo fairly satisfactory results may
bo expected when tho solution Is ap
plied judiciously with a sprinkling
can, it is recommended that Bomo
fonn of a spray pump' bo used. Tin
kind ot outfit selected should doponfl
upon tho size of tho area to be treat
ed. For sranll lawns a compressed air
sprayer, knapsack sprnyor, dr good
"bucket pump with brass cylinder,
and equipped with a flno nozzle will
bo found satisfactory;. While lor largo
lawns a sprayer mounted on- wiioels
Is dcslrcablo.
Tho spray solution should bo strain
ed through a flno strajnor or two
tliickiicssos of cheesecloth to roniovo
any particles which would clog tho
nozzles.

Iron surphato solution produao.8 a
conspicuous yollowlsh-brown rusty
stnln which Is extremely difficult to
romovo. Accordingly, caro should be
taken to avoid getting any ot tho spray
on ono'a clothing or on Bldownlks,
building foundations, momtmonU-,
curbstones and . tho Hko, Evon tho
dragging of tho wet hoso across stono
or comont sidewalks will stain thorn.
Aftor using, tho sprayer sltoulU bo
washed out thoroughly wflth clean
water to provont serious rusting. Tho "
working parts of tho spray should, ho
kept well oiled.
It is necessary to supplement tho
spraying operations with nt least two
aftor treatment measures, namoly,
fertilization nnd rcsoodlng.
