SP5EE 



We herewith offer thoroughly reliable and properly balanced chem- 

 ical fertilizers compounded for the best growth of various crops. Only the 

 choicest, most soluble and easily assimilated ingredients are employed, 

 and while quickly taken up by the plant will not waste in the soil. 



It is well understood among progressive gardeners and farmers, that com- 

 mercial fertilizers have become a necessity and that it is not possible to 

 produce maximum crops without their assistance even where good animal 

 manures are used.

Henderson's Garden Fertilizer 



Best Grade — Highly Concentrated 



Contains all the Food Elements Required for Quality Vegetables and Flowers 



No successful gardening and farming operations can be carried on without 

 fertile soil. While most soils contain some of the plant food elements in a 

 natural form, these elements are often confined in the soil in such a manner 

 that a great period of time may elapse before they become actually available 

 as plant food. It is for this reason that a soil analysis is often misleading 

 inasmuch as it does not show the availability of the fertilizing elements. 



Practical fertility such as will produce a large, profitable crop, depends 

 on the actual available plant food content of the soil; and this plant food 

 must be supplied in such a form, so that it becomes quickly soluble, as then 

 only can it be assimilated by the plants. The most approved method of 

 maintaining a high degree of fertility in the soil is to work in a liberal appli- 

 cation of a well balanced, complete fertilizer before sowing each crop. 



Henderson's Garden Fertilizer is strictly high grade, complete, highly 

 concentrated, fine and dry. It is free from objectionable odor, and contains 

 all the food elements needed by vegetables and flowers, for their quick growth , 

 early maturity and perfect development. This is a matter of great impor- 

 tance particularly when growing vegetables, for those that mature quickly 

 are invariably finer flavored than if their development is drawn over a more

Early maturity is also of vital importance for the commer- 



extended period, 

 cial grower. 



The ingredients of Henderson's Garden Fertilizer are quickly soluble 

 and immediately commence to feed the plants when incorporated in the soil, 

 stimulating them into healthy, luxuriant growth, and feeding them until the 

 end of the season. Even if the soil has received an application of stable 

 manure, Henderson's Garden Fertilizer should be applied in conjunction 

 with it as manure is rich in nitrogen, but deficient in potash and phosphoric 

 acid, both of which are absolutely necessary in order to furnish the plants 

 with a properly balanced ration. 



Henderson's Garden Fertilizer is a properly balanced mixture, and with 

 its continued use especially if a system of crop rotation is followed, a uniform 

 degree of fertility may be maintained in the soil. It should be applied 

 after plowing or digging and just before harrowing or raking at the rate of 

 H to 1 ton to the acre or ten pounds for plot 10 x 20 or 200 square feet. A 

 light top-dressing applied at intervals while a crop is growing, will produce 

 magnificent results.

Henderson's 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 year with suitable 

 fertilizer. The Henderson Lawn Enricher is a clean, odorless lawn dressing 

 which never fails in inducing a rapid and rich green growth. It should 

 be sown broadcast in the spring or fall, and a remarkable improvement 

 will soon be observed. If applied during the summer use half of the 

 quantity and water in thoroughly with a hose. The use of "Henderson 

 Lawn Enricher" entirely does away with the old practice of top dressing 

 lawns with stable manure, so objectionable on account of unsightliness, 

 disagreeable odors, so often full of weed seeds. 



QUANTITY REQUIRED 



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.

lawn." MRS. J. T. ADAMS, Macon, Georgia.

cut five times and is ready to cut again and it is beautiful." 



MRS. A. A. SI'AUR, Sidney. Montana. 



"I have a large trad of land that is situated up on a hill, and it is sandy soil.

 where the people in that neighborhood said it would never gri one oj 



the most beautiful lawns in our section."
