Superior Mixtures 
FAMOUS SINCE THE ADVENT OF GOLF IN AMERICA : 
Grass Seed Mixtures Are Delivered Transportation Paid in the U. S., by Express, Freight or Parcel Post, at Our Option. 
Mixtures of Grass Seeds that have been scientifically blended by experts in the production of turf for Golf Courses are preferred by experienced 
greenkeepers. They have learned that a quicker and more uniform stand of grass is obtained where a mixture is employed; also that the resulting 
turf possesses siete qualities of endurance. 
In the first place a mixed turf is not so readily influenced by adverse atmospheric conditions of drought or excessive moisture as one 
composed of a single variety of grass, because the feeding roots are not all grouped in the same depth of soil and consequently are not all effected 
by a localized soil condition. Perhaps the paramount advantage, however, lies in the fact that it has been proven that turf composed of a mixture of 
grasses is far less susceptible to the ravages of fungus diseases—like Brown Patch—than a Green containing one variety of grass only. 
NDERSON’S GRASS SEED MIXTURES are the result of exhaustive research, and an extensive series of experiments and tests at our 
own trial grounds in New Jersey as well as in test plots in various sections of the country. These mixtures are composed of the most suitable 
native Grasses, mingled with the best imported varieties. Hendersonm’s Grass Seed Mixtures are famous since the advent of Golf in America, 
as we were the pioneers in the production of turf for Golf Courses. Many of the finest courses in America today were laid down with these 
mixtures. They are blended to suit the ground to be seeded; if your conditions are out of the ordinary, a description of the soil and notes on cli- 
mate and the lay of the land should be sent when ordering.

Special Mixture for Tees 
The Tees are the most abused parts of any 
golf course. Not only must they be able to 
withstand the divot taking onslaughts of the 
novices, but they also are obliged to endure 
the excessive foot-wear of all the players. This 
Special Mixture composed of extremely deep 
rooting grasses that will stand great wear is com- 
bined with the stoloniferous types that will 
cover the divot scars quickly. Sow at the rate 
of 10 lbs. to 1,000 square feet. Price per lb., 
60c.; 100 Ibs. $50.00. 
Special Mixture for the Rough 
As more attention is now given to the refine- 
ments of the game, the Rough is no longer 
allowed to be covered with weeds, but is sown 
with a recleaned grass seed mixture such as 
offered here in order to produce a fair, though 
not unduly troublesome penalty for the players.
