All grasses must have some sun. So-

Mow 'bluegrass and fescue lawns short
and you . will have a thin, shallow-

every day.
Most grasses grow roots only when the
soil Is cool. Mowing the lawn short lets
sunheat warm the soil too much.
• Uneven ground leads to scalping,
weak and shallow-rooting, a spot
quick-to-brown.
