Excerpt from Vick's Illustrated Catalogue and Floral Guide for 1871 It will be strange if a great array of weeds do not appear with the grass, but do not take it for granted that these weeds came _fromthe grass seed sown, as many have done, because if you had not sown any grass the weeds would have been just as abundant. The farmer who finds the weeds among his corn and potatoes never imagines that he planted them with his seed. As soon as the grass and weeds get high enough to be cut with a scythe or Lawn Mower, cut close and evenly, and repeat this operation as often as possible. The weeds will soon disappear. A few, perhaps, it may be necessary to remove by hand, but this will not often be the case. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
