Can't get mower to start without jumping off?

I get a new battery each spring and by the end of the first month I have to either charge the battery or jump it off. Sad to say but I never thought to run a test on the battery to see if it had a charge, but this always works. By the end of the summer it gets harder and harder to get to start by using this process.
