Henderson's SPECIAL GRASS SEED MIXTURE for 
- Hay and Permanent Pasture 
- This famous mixture has seeded thousands of acres of meadow and 
pasture land for progressive farmers and stock raisers in various parts 
of the United States, with most gratifying results. It produces 
wonderful Hay crops and luxuriant pasture, maintaining its cropping 
qualities twenty years or more. It is a well-balanced conbination 
of a number of native and acclimated foreign Grasses and Clovers, 
blended and improved upon during exhaustive trials under widely 
varied conditions, soils and localities for several years, until 
practically perfect, our aim being to produce, under the extremes 
of the American climate of heat, drought and cold, a PERMANENT 
dense and deep-rooting turf that would yield year after year the 
maximum quantity of foliage. These Grasses are of superior 
quality, inviting, sweet and nourishing, whether used as hay or pas- 
ture. That we have been successful is attested by the numerous 
letters of praise for these special Grass mixtures that we have received 
from the users, and the tributes to their merits published in many 
of the agricultural journals. Some of these encomiums are printed 
in Henderson’s Farmers Manual (sent free on application). 
In preparing these mixtures the greatest care is exercised in selecting 
such varieties as,are suited to the soil to be sown and are likely to 
realize the object in view. Therefore a description of the soil and 
climate, and the purpose for which sown, and if with or without a 
grain crop, should accompany each order. Sow 3 bushels per acre.
