L/VWISJ GRASS 



TERRACE SOtt 



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 

 washing 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 introducing coarse grasses into your lawn by sowing 

 this mixture, for though strong-rooted, the grasses are equally 

 as fine as those used in the "Henderson" mixture. 



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

 4 quarts, $2.00 pk., $7.00 bush, of 20 lbs. 



"/ have used your 'Henderson' Lawn and Terrace Sod 

 grass seeds on the lawns and banks here with most excellent effect."

LAWN QRASS § EED. 



On nearly all lawns there are un- 

 sightly 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 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 feet, 

 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 furnished a bushel of 'Shady Nook' 

 Grass Seed which did unusually well in our yard, where we 

 have many oaks and sugar maples."

H ENDERSON'S »SEA SIDE" 

 Lawn Grass Seed. 



Along our seacoast there are many beautiful summer homes 

 and resorts with such sandy saline surroundings that a turf of the 

 favorite lawn grasses cannot be produced. We have so often made 

 up a mixture of special grasses to thrive under these trying condi- 

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

 who may be having the same "trouble in getting grass to grow." 

 We do not claim that our "Sea Side" lawn grass will make a lawn 

 equalling in fine velvety texture those produced with the " Henderson 

 Lawn Grass Seed," but our "Sea Side " mixture will make a good 

 turf of green on sand where the finergrasses 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 "Sea Side" 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. 



The lawns surrounding the Manhattan Beach and Oriental 

 Hotels, Long Island, illustrated herewith, were made years ago 

 under the exact conditions we describe above with our special 

 "Sea Side" Lawn Grass mixture, and they still remain in beautiful 

 condition, excepting in places where the salt spray dashes. Use at 

 the rate of 1 quart for 300 square feet; 5 bushels per acre.

it having stood the drought 



better than any of the others 



I sowed." W. S. KEEFER,
