HENDERSON'S SPECIAL GRASS MLA LUINis 
FOR HAY AND PERMANENT PASTURE. 
Consisting of the following varieties, Orchard Grass, Meadow Foxtail, Sheep’s Feseuss Rhode Island or Creeping Bent, Hard 
Fescue, Sweet Scented Vernal (True Perennial) Meadow Fescue, English Rye Grass, Italian Rye Grass, Red Top, etce., 
as recommended in our book, **How the Farm Pays,”’ blended in proportions which, we have found from actual use, give the most 
satisfactory results 
On ordinary fertile soil 3 bushels of this mixture is sufficient to seed an acre, but where the land is poor a larger quantity will be necessary 
Taking one soil with another a fair average would 
be 3 bushels to the acre. 
For Light soils...

Heavy soils. | 20 bush. lots.¢2.20 per bush.

To these mixtures. intended for either Mowing 
Lands or Pastures (but which on acconnt of their 
greater weight should be grown separately) are to be 
added 10 lbs. of Mixed Clovers, comprising White, 
Mammoth Perennial or Cow Grass, Alsike, Trefoil, 
etc., but these should only be sown in the spring, as 
they are rather tender in this latitude if sown in the 
fall. 
The quantity needed (10 lbs.) of 
MIXED CLOVERS to sow an acre 
we will sell for $1.80.
