Henderson's 



SPECIAL GRASS SEED MIXTURE FOR 



Hay and Permanent Pasture 



It- Produces Wonderful Hay Crops and Luxuriant Pasture 

 Maintaining Its Cropping Qualities Twenty Years or More 



This famous mixture has seeded thousands of acres of meadow 

 and pasture land for progressive farmers and stock raisers in vari- 

 ous parts of the United States, with most gratifying results. It 

 is a well-balanced combination of a number of native and accli- 

 mated foreign Grasses and Clovers, blended and improved upon 

 during exhaustive trials under widely varied conditions, soils and 

 localities for several years, until practically perfect, our aim be- 

 ing to produce, under the extremes of the American climate of 

 heat, drought and cold, a Permanent, dense and deep-rooting 

 turf that would yield year after year the maximum quantity of 

 forage. These Grasses are of superior quality; inviting, sweet and 

 nourishing, whether used as hay or pasture. That we have been 

 successful is attested by the numerous letters of praise for these 

 special Grass mixtures that we have received from the users, and 

 the tributes to their merits published in many of the agricultural 

 journals. See Henderson's Farmers' Manual for testimonials. It 

 is sent post free on request. 



In preparing these mixtures the greatest care is exercised in 

 selecting such varieties as are suited to the soil to be sown, and to 

 realize the object in view. Therefore a description of the soil 

 and climate, and the purpose for which sown, and if with or with- 

 out a grain crop, should accompany each order. Sow 3 bushels 

 per acre. Full directions for sowing enclosed in every bag.

Regarding Clovers 



■Do not omit tc sow Clovers with the Grasses, as they add 

 to the yield of hay and pasture, and by their ability to collect 

 atmospheric nitrogen and store it in the root nodules, assist the 

 growth of the Grasses and are of considerable benefit to sub- 

 sequent crops. 



Mixed Permanent Clovers, on account of their greater weight, 

 should be sown separately, but at the same time as the Grasses. 

 This Mixed Clover comprises White, Mammoth Perennial or 

 Cow Grass, Alsike, etc. Sow 10 pounds per acre. Price, 40c. 

 per lb.; 10 lbs., $3.75; 100 lbs., $35.00.
