LAWN ENRICHER and Top Dresser 



For New and Old Lawns, Athletic Fields, Golf Courses, Etc. 

 It is Odorless, and Quickly Induces a Luxuriant Green Growth. 



The constant mowing of grass and removal of clippings also removes 

 a proportion of digested plant food. Therefore, if the luxuriance of 

 a lawn is to be maintained, it must be top dressed at least once a j-ear 

 with suitable fertilizer. The Henderson Lawn Enricher is a clean, 

 lawn dressing which never fails in inducing a rapid and rich green- 

 growth. 



For forming a new lawn a 10-lb. package is sufficient to go over an 

 area of 200 square feet, or 1,000 to 1,500 lbs. per acre, or a smaller 

 quantity for renovating an old lawn. Apply broadcast with machine 

 or by hand as evenly as possible on a quiet day and preferably just 

 before rain. If applied during the summer use half of the quantity 

 and water in thoroughly with a hose.

WORM-KILLING GRASS FOOD 



HENDERSON'S 



It not only stimulates the grass on lawns, putting greens, tennis 

 courts, croquet grounds, etc., into rich green growth, but it quickly 

 eliminates the earth or angle worms that burrow in the turf in almost 

 unbelievable quantities. Apply at the rate of y 2 pound to a square 

 yard and water in with a hose. The worms will then almost imme- 

 diately come to the surface. It is a non-poisonous powder not injurious 

 to animal or bird life. Its fertilizing properties, while combined into a 

 well-balanced grass food, are not so strong but that it can safely be 

 applied on grass in warm weather according to directions.

HUMUS Hyper Pulverized 



Nature's Product for Enriching Lawns and Gardens 



Humus is not a chemical fertilizer, but a natural organic substance 

 consisting of deposits of decomposed vegetable matter that have 

 been accumulating for countless ages. 



Hyper Pulverized Humus is black in color, it is easy to apply, and 

 serves many functions in the soil. It loosens heavy clayey soils, and 

 promotes aeration. It increases the moisture absorbing power of light, 

 sandy soils and corrects the mechanical condition of medium soils.

 desirable for starting seedlings indoors, also for potting bulbs and 

 other house plants.
