A good lawn is unquestionably the most beautiful and most 

 essential feature of the home grounds; or of any landscape de- 

 velopment. Nothing else can set off the architectural beauty of a 

 building to better advantage than a well-made, well-kept lawn. 

 A beautiful lawn is not only valuable from an aesthetic view- 

 point, or because it promotes pride of ownership; but, it also 

 has intrinsic value, actually increasing the value of the property 

 upon which it grows. 

 A lawn made with THE "HENDERSON" LAWN GRASS SEED is practically permanent. Customers tell us 

 that lawns made with this mixture twenty or more years ago, are as beautiful today as when they were first made. 



It should be borne in mind when considering the making of a lawn that the cost of the seed represents only a small part 

 of the actual investment. The labor cost is usually far in excess of the cost of the seed. It is therefore false economy 

 to save a few cents by buying a mixture of grass seeds obtained from a questionable source, only to be obliged to endure 

 the annoyance and expense of continually repatching a weedy, irregular turf, and perhaps being forced to do the entire 

 work over again in a short time. 



Henderson's celebrated Lawn Grass Seed Mixture has been thoroughly tested by country- wide use during three-quarters 

 of a century. It is the fruit of years of our personal experience and study, coupled with that of many of America's foremost 

 gardeners, who steadfastly maintain and unite with us in saying that it has no superior for American conditions and the 

 American climate. The rapidity with which it will form a deep green velvety turf, has been the delight of gardeners since 

 its introduction in 1847, for, under ordinary conditions, the bare soil will be clothed with an emerald carpet of living 

 green in four weeks' time.
