| Annotation from Turfgrass History and Literature: Lawns, Sports, and Golf, by James B Beard, Harriet J. Beard and James C Beard: | "A rare summary of early research results obtained from 1931 through 1938 at the turfgrass field research grounds near Milford, Connecticut. The diversity of experiments ranged among cool-season turfgrass species, cultivars, and polystand assessments on various use sites such as lawn, sports field, putting green, cemetery, airfield, and shade. Also included were mowing, rolling, fertilizing, weed control, and seed timing studies." p. 464 |
