HAT the "Henderson" Lawn 

 Grass Seed is the finest mixture 

 ever offered, the immense quan- 

 tity we annually sell is the best proof 

 we can offer. It is the best lawn seed 

 lor our American climate, and is com- 

 posed of various grasses that grow 

 and flourish during different months 

 ot the year, so that a rich, deep green, 

 \ t^vety lawn is constantly maintained. 

 The Henderson Lawn Seed is the re- 

 sult of several years' careful experi- 

 menting, and as we now offer it the 

 mixture is unequaled. It may not 

 also be generally known that it is, 

 ii4atively speaking, the cheapest seed 

 offered, because while the lawn grass 

 mixtures of other seedsmen will not 

 average over 14 lbs. to the bushel, the 

 Henderson Lawn Seed will weigli 

 fiom 20 to 21 lbs. per measured bushel. 

 The quantity required for making new 

 lawns is 5 bushels per acre, or for 

 renovating old lawns 1 to 2 bushels. 

 For a plot 15 x 20, or 300 square feet, 1 

 quart is required for new or 1 pint for 

 renovation. Price, 25c. per quart, 

 $1.50 per peck, $5.00 per bush. {If 

 by mail, add at the rate of 5c. per quart 

 for postage). 



TES TUMOJSTIALS. 



" The Lawn Grass ^vh^ch I bought of 

 you in April gave entire satisfaction, 

 iilthoughit had no opportunity to doits 

 hi-st on my place, where the soil is a stiff 

 :ilobe, in some places not afoot deep, 

 ooerlying a bed of gravel. Water runs 

 through it as th^-ough a sieve. Before 

 planting my own lawn, I had the year be- 

 fore bought the same kind of seed, Hendei son's 

 Lawn Grass, for a small place I was laying 

 out, and that bit of lawn is as perfect a piece 

 ^f turf as I could wish to see. It is on better 

 soil bid exposed to the full glare of the i^un all 

 the year, and the first season after it was 

 planted it had no icater for sLx weeks, yet did 

 not even turn brown. Ithitik it an excellent 

 grass for this climate, and one of its chief 

 merits is its being such clean seed — my lawn is 

 absolutely free from weeds."

' For eight or nine years my lawn has been sowed 



with your grass seed and strewn with your fertilizer, 



and there is no neater lawn on the island. I have one of 



your lawn inowers and one of your rollers. My last pur- 



cha.Ke was grass seed for a small place I own, where the soil is 



poor and sandy. It ivas sown early in the spring and has proved 



to be u'onderfidly adapted to so barren a spot. Indeed, it has greatly 



exceeded my expectations in making so rapid a growth, although we are 



subject here to severe drought and have to depend greatly on sprinkling 



and ivatering." CAROLINE PARKER HILLS.
