Henderson's " Tou^h Turf " Grass Seed 



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



Under congenial conditions it will be ready for mowing 4 weeks from sowing, and in 6 weeks ready for playing 



The turf required for outdoor sports must be closely interwoven, 

 firm, elastic, smooth and durable. These requirements are met in 

 Henderson's "Tough Turf" Mixture. It quickly forms an inde- 

 structible turf, standing wear and tear of outdoor games, and is 

 constantly green; is composed of native and acclimated foreign fine- 

 leaved, fibrous, deep-rooting grasses, that spread and intermingle, the 

 seeds of which are blended in the proper proportions to form and 

 maintain a tough, matted, evergreen sward, even in dry weather. 

 These varieties, 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; half thai 

 quantity will do for renovating.

Henderson's "Special Grass Seed Mixture" for 



Cricket, Polo and Ball Grounds 



This is a special blend of deep-rooting, fine-leaved, turf-forming 

 grasses, especially suited for cricket grounds, nolo grounds, ball 

 grounds, etc. This mixture forms a thick, strong, enduring turf 

 thai will stand any amount of hard usage without showing wear and 

 tear. It grows quickly, and if soil and conditions are at all favorable, 

 with attention to rolling and mowing, should be ready for hard use in 

 eight weeks from sowing. The polo grounds at Lakewood. Newport, 

 Meadowbrook, Rockaway Hunt, Saratoga and others, were laid with 

 our Special Grass Seed. As for cricket and ball grounds on which our 

 grass seeds have been used, they are too many to mention. 



Sow 50 to 100 lbs. per acre; the larger quantity if quick and very 

 best results are desired.

WE have given much attention to grasses for Golf Courses. The 

 Mixtures we offer below are largely composed of foreign varieties 

 that will thrive herewith the addition of several equally fine American 

 varieties, and are the result of experiments conducted on our grounds, 

 as well as careful watching for several years of the practical results 

 obtained on Golf Courses sown with our grass seeds, such as the Golf 

 Courses named above, and nearly all well-known Courses in the United 

 States. By the use of these Mixtures, and with proper care, the finest 

 Fair Greens and Putting Greens in the world can be successfully 

 rivaled, and. if conditions are favorable, a good playing turf may be 

 secured in eight weeks from time of sowing and lasting indefinitely. 

 Several members of our establishment are golfers, and we thor- 

 oughly understand the requirements, and will at all times be pleased 

 to correspond with and advise Greens Committees.
