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 experience I 

 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 greater 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 arc not all affected 

 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. 



HENDERSON'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. Henderson'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. 



Putting Green Mixture 



Putting Greens sown with a properly blended mixture of grasses are in 

 most cases far superior to those on which only one variety was sown. 

 They come into play quicker after seeding, they present a more attractive 

 appearance from early spring to late fall; and due to the fact that the 

 roots draw their nourishment from various depths in the soil, a more 

 resistant and durable turf is formed. 



Henderson's Putting Green Mixture is the best that scientific skill 

 and many years of experience can produce. Sow from 7:> to 100 lbs. for 

 the average sized 90 x 90 ft. green. Price per lb., 85c; 25 lbs. (1 

 bushel), $20.00; per 100 lbs. $75.00. 



Special Mixture for Tees 



The Tecs arc 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 tliat will stand great wear is com- 

 bined with the stolonifcrous 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 lbs. $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 

 o0ered here in order to produce a fair, though 

 not unduly troublesome penaltv for the players. 

 Price per lb., 50c; 100 lbs., $40.00. 



Special Mixture for Bunkers 



As bunkers and mounds frequently become 

 extremely dry and parched, we have developed 

 a mixture that will give satisfaction under these 

 trying conditions. Price per lb., 65c; 100 

 lbs., $S5.00.

Fair Green Mixture 



On most Golf Courses the Fair Greens receive far less attention than the 

 Putting Greens; it is therefore important that a mixture of grass seeds be 

 sown that will produce a fine, well knit elastic turf, requiring a minimum 

 amount of attention. The importance of good Fair Greens cannot be over 

 estimated, for walking on a springy turf that is pleasing to the eye. is one 

 of the added attractions of the game. 



Henderson's Fair Green Mixture is specially blended to fulfil these 

 requirements Sow 150 to 200 lbs. per acre, according to the nature of the 

 soil. For renovating use half this amount. Price per lb., 60c; 100 lbs.. 

 $50.00.
