| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses turf transplanting, suggesting that "there are many ways by which turf may be transplanted, most of which are wasteful of time, labor and money and which give very poor results at best." Details a possible method to transplant turf, stating "the first thing to do is to form the sub-surface of the new green with the desired undulations...Then cover the surface with an inch coat of finely sifted compost preferably made up of the following: for a heavy soil, one third top-soil, one third humus, and one third sharp river or bank sand; for a sandy soil, half humus and half top-soil." |
