Answer to Question 1

Aeration is beneficial to lawn grass because it adds oxygen to the soil by breaking up
plugs of soil. It also stimulates root growth and promotes moisture intake.



Answer to Question 2

When more than one-third of the lawn grass plants are dead, and large bare spots exist,
it may be better to kill the existing grass with a nonselective herbicide and reseed the
entire area. For thinly covered lawns, spot seeding or spot patching with turf is often the
best option.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
