[describing the new Lakefront grounds] The grading is being done with loam and a mixture of street-dirt, the latter giving enough manure to the composition to insure the rapid growth of the grass which will be sown in the outfield. The diamond and a little space outside it will be covered with sod brought from outside the city.
