THE ‘‘ HENDERSON ’’ LAWN GRASS SEED produces a perfect and enduring lawn of luxuriant richness, with closely inter- 
woven, firm, deep and elastic turf, and it is often ready for cutting in four weeks from time of sowing. This celebrated Lawn Grass 
is composed of a thoroughly balanced combination of various native and foreign fine-leaved, deep-rooting grasses of interweaving 
habit, that flourish under our varied conditions soils and climates, growing during different seasons of the year, so that a deep green, 
smooth, and velvety sward, free from clumps, is maintained from snow to snow, year after year, and without burning brown in sum- 
mer, its constant luxuriance rivaling the famous lawns of Old England. 
THE BEAUTIFUL LAWNS at the Lewis and Clark Exposition, Portland, Oregon, the Jamestown Exposition at Norfolk, the 
Pan-American Exposition, Buffalo, and also at the World’s Fair in Chicago, were produced in six weeks’ time with The ‘‘ Henderson’’ 
Lawn Grass Seed, which was awarded the highest medals at these Expositions; but what we prize more than gold medals are the hun- 
dreds of letters of praise we have on file from the users of The ‘‘ Henderson ’’ Lawn Grass Seed in almost every State in the Union. 
THE ‘‘ HENDERSON ”’ LAWN GRASS SEED is, relatively speaking, the cheapest seed offered, because, while other lawn grass 
mixtures on the market will not average over 14 lbs. to the bushel, this weighs 20 Ibs. per measured bushel. It is also the Purest, 
Cleanest and Heaviest lawn grass seed ever offered and it is absolutely free from weed seeds. 
It sows evenly—wind 
or no wind.
