THE HENDERSON 



l^awn Cjrass Seed 



Is Used On The Most 

 Beautiful Lawns in America 



A lawn made with THE "HENDERSON" LAWN GRASS 

 SEED is practically permanent. Customers tell us that lawns made 

 with this mixture twenty or more years ago are as beautiful today 

 as when they were first made. 



It should be borne in mind when considering the making of a 

 lawn that the cost of the seed represents only a small part of the 

 actual investment. The labor cost is usually far in excess of the 

 cost of the seed. It is therefore false economy to save a few cents by 

 buying a mixture of grass seeds obtained from a questionable 

 source, only to be obliged to endure the annoyance and expense of 

 continually repatching a weedy, irregular turf and perhaps being 

 forced to do the entire work over again in a short time. 



Henderson's celebrated Lawn Grass Seed Mixture has been 

 thoroughly tested by a country-wide use during three-quarters of 

 a century. It is the fruit of years of our personal experience and 

 study, coupled with that of many of America's foremost gardeners, 

 who steadfastly maintain and unite with us in saying that it 

 has no superior for American conditions and the American cli- 

 mate. The rapidity with which it will form a deep green, velvety 



turf, has been 

 the delight of 

 gardeners since 

 its introduction, 

 for, under or- 

 dinary condi- 

 tions, the bare 

 soil will be 

 clothed with an 

 emerald carpet 

 of living green 

 in four weeks' 

 time.

SHADY NOOK 



Henderson's Approved Formula — 



The Ideal Qrass Seed Mixture 



for Shaded Areas 



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 further difficulty. It is a com- 

 bination 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 defec- 

 tive 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 

 excellent corrective and sweetener, but the moss should be first 

 raked off. Sow seed at the rate of 1 lb. for 200 sq. ft.; 5 lbs. for 

 1,000 sq. ft. 



Price, Vi lb., 45c; lb., 85c; 5 lbs., $4.00; 10 lbs., $7.50; 

 25 lbs.. $18.00; 100 lbs., $70.00.
