Henderson's Special Grass Mixtures 



PERMANENT HAY Special Grass Seed Mixture 

 Supplies a Good Crop of Hay in Dry Seasons 



Although the most widely cultivated Hay Grass in the United States is Timothy, or a 

 mixture of Timothy and Clover, and while they answer the purposes admirably on farms where 

 the soil is suitable and where the usual three and four years' 1 rotation is carried on, yet there 

 are many other Grasses which will yield more profitable returns. 



An acre of Henderson's Special Grass Mixture for Permanent Hay will yield double the 

 quantity of an acre of Timothy and Clover, and the farmer whose land is sown with a proper 

 mixture of Permanent Grasses, requiring only an occasional top-dressing of manure of fer- 

 tilizer to maintain heavy cropping qualities for twenty years or more, avoids the expense of 

 the yearly plowing, and cultivating necessary in rotation cropping. Sow 40 lbs. per acre. 



Price, lb. 50c; 10 lbs. $4.00; 25 lbs. $8.75; 100 lbs. $30.00; transportation paid. 



PERMANENT PASTURE Special Grass Seed Mixture 



There is no more important part of a farm than a good pasture, and that can only be 

 obtained by the use of the proper Grasses, varieties that have different root formations and 

 different habits and season of growth, in order to maintain a rich, close turf throughout the 

 entire season. Timothy should never be used for pasture because it will not stand trampling, 

 and soon runs out when heavily pastured and at best is short-lived, as compared with the 

 permanent Grasses used in our Special Mixtures. These Mixtures contain over a dozen of 

 the best permanent Grasses, both American-grown and imported. All are permanent, and when 

 once established will last indefinitely, if the fertility of the soil is kept up by occasional top- 

 dressing. Sow 40 lbs. per acre. 



Price, lb. 50c; 10 lbs. $4.00; 25 lbs. $8.75; 100 lbs. $30.00; transportation paid. 



WOODLAND PASTURES Special Grass Seed Mixture 



Is composed of a selection of Grasses which will thrive under trees. Orchard Grass is one 

 of the best Grasses for the purpose, but this mixture is much superior as it will make a closer 

 and more even pasture than Orchard Grass alone. Sow 40' lbs. per acre. 



Price, lb. 60c; 10 lbs. $5.50; 25 lbs. $11.00; 100 lbs. $40.00; transportation paid. 



RENOVATING MIXTURE For Impoverished Grass Lands 



Sow the grass seed at rate of 40 lbs. to an acre. 



Price, lb. 50c; 10 lbs. $4.00; 25 lbs. $8.75; 100 lbs. $30.00; transportation paid. 



MIXED PERMANENT CLOVER 



On account of their greater weight, should be sown separately, but at the same time as the 

 Grasses. This Mixed Clover comprises White Mammoth Perennial or Cow Grass, Alsike, etc. 

 Sow 10 pounds per acre. 



Price, lb. 65c; 10 lbs. $6.00; 25 lbs. $13.75; 100 lbs. $50.00. 



Purchaser pays transportation charges.
