SHADY NOOK 
The Ideal Mixture For Shaded Areas 
TFtender sons Special Nixtur ZA) of SSawn YASS Seed 
It is a combination of fine, dwarf growing, 
evergreen varieties which in their wild or natural 
state are to be found growing in the woods or 
other sheltered and shaded spots. Ground that 
has been densely shaded by trees is frequently 
“sour” and if the drainage is defective it is apt 
to be covered with moss and coarse grasses. In 
such cases an application of slaked lime, at the 
rate of one hundred pounds to each thousand 
square feet, or two tons to the acre, is an ex- 
cellent corrective and sweetener, but the moss 
should be first raked off. (See illustration.)

“SPECIAL BENT FORMULA” 
It Makes Every Lawn Like a Putting Green 
‘It is imperative in maintaining a lawn of this 
type, that the grass should be kept cut short and 
well rolled all through the season. Starvation of 
the grass plants is the most frequent cause of 
unsatisfactory lawns, and grass needs constant 
small applications of fertilizer and plenty of water 
to maintain a perfect lawn.

SEASIDE 
Our “Seaside” mixture will make a good turf of green on sand 
where the finer grasses are not so likely to thrive, though, of course, 
the sand must be top-dressed with not less than 2 inches of soil before 
even our “Seaside” Grass Seed is sown, to enable the young grass to 
get a start after which the long roots—peculiar to the varieties we use 
in this mixture—drive down deeply in the sand and remain perma- 
nently self sustaining, if attention is given to sprinkling during dry 
weather.

TERRACE SOD 
A special mixture of grasses best suited for sowing on terraces, 
embankments and hillsides. These are varieties that produce long, 
strong, spreading roots, preventing heavy rains from washing them 
out and that will withstand drought, thrive on shallow soils, and at 
the same time produce a rich, velvety green turf throughout the season.

Several varieties are blended in 
the proper proportions to form 
and maintain a tough matted

liberally if a playing turf is de- 
sired quickly.

LAWN ENRICHER and Top Dresser 
For New and Old Lawns, Athletic Fields, Golf Courses, etc. It is 
Oderless, and Quickly Induces a Luxuriant Green Growth 
The constant mowing of grass and removal of clippings also 
removes a proportion of digested plant food. Therefore, if the 
luxuriance of a lawn is to be maintained, it must be top dressed 
at least once a year with suitable fertilizer. The Henderson Lawn 
Enricher is a clean lawn dressing which never fails in inducing a 
rapid and rich green growth. 
For a new lawn a 10-lb. package is sufficient to cover an area 
of 200 square feet; per acre, 1,000 to 1,500 lbs. Apply broadcast 
with machine or by hand as evenly as possible on a quiet day 
and preferably just before rain. If applied during the summer use 
half of the quantity and water in thoroughly with a hose.
