L^XWM GRASS 



"SHADY NOOK" 



LAWN 



GRASS SEED. 



On nearly all lawns there are unsightly bare spots under the shade of trees, which 

 have baffled all efforts to get into grass, but with this mixture there need be no fur- 

 ther difficulty. 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 bog grasses. In such cases an application of slaked lime, at 

 the rate of one bushel to each thousand square leet, or forty bushels to the 

 acre, is an excellent corrective and sweetener, but the moss should be first 

 removed by the use of a sharp rake.

"Last year you iurnished a bushel of 'Shady Nook' Grass Seed, which did 

 unusually well in our yard, where we ha re many oais and sugar maples." 

 Mrs. WM. J. ROBERTSON, Charlottesville, Ya. 



"SUNNY SOUTH" Lawn Grass Seed 



Is especially prepared for the South, and contains all the best grasses 

 that are by nature adapted for hot, dry situations. In the South, 

 Bermuda grass is frequently used, but it remains green only in the 

 summer months, turning brown in winter; but by using this mixture, 

 and with some care and attention, an all-the-year-round lawn can be 

 maintained in the Southern States. 



Price, delivered free in the U. S., 35c. qt., $1.25 for 4 qts., $2.00 

 pk., $7.00 bus. of 20 lbs. 



"My grass, the 'Sunny South,' is just as fine as can be. Will put all the 

 balance of the lawn in 'Sunny South, 1 it having stood the drought better than 

 am/ of the others I sowed." 



Tl". S. KEEFER, Thomasville, Ga. 



TERRACE SOD 



LAWN GRASS SEED. 



A special mixture of grasses best suited for sowing on terraces, 

 railroad embankments and side hills — grasses that produce 

 strong, spreading roots, thus preventing heavy rains from wash- 

 ing them out; that will withstand drought and exposure, thrive 

 on shallow soils, and at the same time produce a rich, velvety 

 green turf throughout the season. There need be no fear of in- 

 troducing coarse grasses into your lawn by sowing this mixture, 

 for though strong-rooted, the grasses are equally as fine-leaved 

 as those used in the "Henderson" mixture. 

 Price, delivered free in the XT S., 35c. qt., $1.25 for 

 4 qts., $2.00 pk., $7.00 bus. of 20 lbs. 



" Your ' Terrace Sod ' lawn grass seed has made our terraces 

 beautiful and green and it has bound the soil so firmly that even 

 excessive rains have not caused a washout." 



ALFRED DONNELLY, 

 Gardener to C. H. Mackay, Esq., Roslyn, N. Y. 



Hendersons "SEASIDE" 



LAWN GRASS SEED. 



Along our seacoast there are many beautiful summer homes and 

 resorts with such sandy saline surroundings that a turf of the favor- 

 ite lawn grasses cannot be produced. We have so olten made up a 

 mixture of special grasses to thrive under these trying conditions 

 that we have concluded to offer it for the benefit of others who may 

 he having the same " trouble in getting grass to grow." We do not 

 claim that our "Seaside " Lawn Grass will make a lawn equaling in 

 fine velvety texture those produced with the "Henderson Lawn 

 Grass Seed," but 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 permanently self-sustaining, if attention is 

 given to sprinkling during dry weather. Use at the rate of one 

 quart for 300 square feet; 5 bushels per acre. 

 Price, delivered free in the U. S., 25c. qt., 75c. for 4 qts., 

 $1.25 pk., $4.50 bus. 



"My small lav:n produced from your Seaside. Grass Seed has been 

 most satisfactory, considering the extremely sandy soil." 



FRANK H. COLE, Asbury Park, N. J.
