Hendersons Fertilizers 



Prices Subject to Change NA/'ithout Notice 



We herewith offer the best fertilizers procurable for the various crops recommonded, but all commercial fertilizers for 1917 will be shy in 

 potash, the source of supply having been shut ofif by the European war. Agricultural experts claim that most soils will retain sufficient potash 

 for another year's crop. However, we advise those of our patrons doubtful of their soil's supply, especially if planting crops requiring an 

 abundance of potash, to apply in addition to the fertilizer used, not less than 1,000 pounds of wood ashes per acre, or 3 to 5 pounds- per 100 

 square feet. Mucky, and light or sandy soils usually need potash. 



Bone Fertilizers 



Decompose slowly in the soil, and therefore form 

 excellent permanent improvement, less likely than 

 any other fertilizer to waste. With bone there is 

 no danger of burning the plants. Excellent for 

 top-dressing lawns and grass lands, for garden and 

 field crop?. 



Quantity Required. For lawns, pasture and mow- 

 ing lands, }A to 1 ton per acre. For trees and vines, 

 S to 4 quarts each. For field and garden crops, % 

 to i ton broadcasted and harrowed in. For rose 

 beds, pot plants, etc., one part to about fifty of soil. 



Raw Bone Meal. This is ground very fine, de- 

 coniposes more rapidl.v in the soil than the coarser 

 grades, and is therefore more quickly beneficial.

 per ton of 2.000 lbs., .S35.00. 



Raw Ground Bone. This is moderately fine and 

 particularly adapted for general fertilizing; the 

 finer particles are immediately beneficial, the coarse 

 keeping up the supply of plant food for a long period.

THE ''HENDERSON" LAWN ENRICHER-Odorless-Quick^Acting 



For New and Old Lawns, Tennis Courts, Putting Greens, Etc. Quickly Induces a Luxuriant Rich Green Growth 



The Henderson Lawn Enrioher is a clean and odorless lawn dressing 

 which never fails in inducing a rapid and rich green growth. It should 

 be sown broadcast in the spring or fall, and a remarkable improvement 

 will soon be observed. If applied during the summer use half of the 

 quantity and during rainy weather or water in thoroughly with a hose. 

 The use of "Henderson Lawn Enricher" entirely does away with the 

 old practice of top-dressing lawns with stable manure, so objectionable 

 on account of unsightliness, disagreeable odors, and the fact that it is 

 so often full of weed seeds which in most cases germinate, and ruin 

 the appearance of the lawn. 



QUANTITY REQUIRED 



For forming a new lawn a 10-pound package is sufficient to go over an area 

 of 300 square feet, or 1,000 to 1,500 pounds per acre, or a smaller quantity for 

 renovating an old lawn. 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 during rainy weather or water in 

 thoroughly with a hose.
