Abstract/Contents: | Profiles "a field of twenty-two and a half acres growing potatoes...[which was to be converted] into a general sports ground," indicating that "the soil was a very fertile brick earth." Explains that a grader was used "to remove soil from high spots or ridges and deposit it in minor depressions," adding that "its action was rather severe as it took away too much top soil." Indicates that "the seeds mixture sown contained two fescues with New Zealand Browntop." Concludes that "the grass has made excellent progress...[but] the thin areas which resulted by the use of the grader...gave rise to many anxious moments." |
