Henderson Lawn Grass Seed. 
The "HENDERSON" Lawn Grass Seed 
Sown in the Autumn, produces Enduring Turf which will withstand Summer Droughts 
For a long time we have urged the' Fall planting of grass seed, for either the new lawn, or the renovation of the present one, and 
year after year, the results have shown the wisdom of following the natural way. 
Grass seed planted, in the Fall, germinates rapidly, and will attain a strong growth by the time frost comes. Even with the 
rigorous Northern winters there is very little danger of its being injured by the cold weather; in fact, our advice is not to protect it 
in any way. 
Even before the frost is completely out of the ground, we find that the young grass responds to the first warm days. Weed 
seeds from the previous Summer will not start until weeks after the Fall-sown grass has become strong and vigorous enough to with- 
stand their more rapid growth; in fact, if it has been planted thickly, the grass will often crowd out the weeds. 
Any lawn will be improved by a light sowing of the appropriate Henderson mixture during early September, together with an 
application of one of the Henderson fertilizers. You will find a list of our various grass mixtures for particular places on Page 44 and 
whether you are going to make a new lawn, or renovate the old, we strongly urge your doing so at once. 
A copy of our pamphlet "How to Make a Lawn" is sent with every package of the Henderson Lawn Grass Seed. 
In the latitude of New York, the seed may be sown up to the first of October, farther south later, and farther north up to about 
September first.

Mr. John J. Harvey, 
Troy, N. Y. 
I have been buying seeds and plants from you a number of years and have found everything to 
be all right in every way. I live within 50 feet of the railroad station and have many compliments 
on my lawn, the seeds ordered from you. Passengers on the trains would call me to get the address 
of my grass seeds.
