"It was decided last fall to start a fairway devel-opment plan because the fairway turf was thinand spotty. It was thought that a great deal ofreseeding and relearning would be necessary.After making 3 applications of Agrieo for Turfresults were so gratifying that a continued feed-ing program was all that was necessary. The over-all picture one year later has shown remarkableresults produced by this program; dense, darklycolored turf that has been most gratifying to ourmembers.
