Henderson’s Special Grass Seed Mixture For— 
Hay and Permanent Pasture 
Produces Wonderful Hay Ay and Luxuriant Pasture, Maintaining Its Cropping Qualities For Twenty Years 
This famous mixture has seeded thousands of acres of meadow and pasture land for progressive farmers and stock raisers in various parts of the United 
States, with most gratifying results. It produces wonderful Hay crops and luxuriant pasture, maintaining its cropping qualities twenty years or more. It is a 
well-balanced combination of a number of native and acclimated 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 being 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 foliage. 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. 
In preparing these mixtures the greatest care is exercised in selecting such varieties as are suited to the soil to be sown and are likely to realize the object in 
view. Therefore a description of the soil and climate, and the purpose for which sown, and if with or without a grain crop, should accompany each order. Sow 
40 lbs. per acre. Please state when ordering if wanted for Light, Medium or Heavy Soils.
