HENDERSON'S 



"TOUGH TURF" GRASS SEED. 



For Tennis Courts, Croquet Grounds, Bowling Greens, etc. 

 It Quickly Forms an Indestructible Turf. 



SMOOTH, FIRM, ELASTIC, STANDING WEAR AND TEAR OF OUTDOOR GAMES. 



Under congenial conditions it will be ready for mowing four weeks from sowing, and in six 



weeks ready for playing. 



Henderson's " Tough Turf " Grass Seed is a blend of Grasses especially suited for the making 

 of Grass tennis courts, croquet grounds, bowling greens, etc. The turf required for outdoor 

 sports must be closely interwoven, firm, elastic, smooth, and durable to stand the wear and tear. 

 These requirements are met in Henderson's " Tough Turf " Mixture, which is composed of 

 fibrous, deep-rooting Grasses that spread and intermingle. The seeds are blended in the 

 proper proportions to form and maintain a tough, matted sward, constantly green, even in dry 

 weather. These varieties of Grasses being low-growing and fine-leaved, require to be sown 

 liberally if a playing turf is desired quickly; not less than one quart should be used for 300 

 square feet, or five bushels per acre although fifty per cent more may be used with advantage. 

 Half that quantity will do for renovating. . (See engraving.)

Henderson's "SlUmy South 



J J Lawn Grass 

 Seed. 



It 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 to watering 

 an all-the-year-round lawn can be maintained in the Southern 

 States where grasses do not usually thrive.

A GREEN LAWN IN TEXAS 

 " At my former home at El Paso I had a lawn of your Sunny South Lawn 

 Grass Seed which under irrigation produced the heaviest lawn I ever saw, necessita- 

 ting cutting three times weekly in order to make it look trim. I use yourBall- 

 Bearing Lawn Mower." L. H. VANDERWERT, Willcox, Ariz. 



Henderson's "Seaside 



77 



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. Our " Seaside " 

 mixture will make a good turf of green on sand, 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. Attention must be given to sprinkling during dry 

 weather. Use not less than one quart for 300 square feet; 

 5 bushels per acre.
