These mixtures are composed principally of native Grasses, mingled with a few 

 varieties of foreign origin. They are undoubtedly the best for the 



AMERICAN CLIMATE and AMERICAN CONDITIONS. 



Hendersons Shady Nook 



LAWN GRASS SEED 



On nearly all lawns there are unsightly bare spots under the shade 

 of trees, which have baffled all efforts to get into Grass, but with this 

 mixture there need be no further difficulty. It is a combination of 

 fine, dwarf growing, evergreen varieties, which in their wild or 

 natural state are to be found growing in the woods or other shel- 

 tered and shaded spots. Ground that has been densely shaded 

 by trees is frequently "sour," and if the drainage is defective it 

 is apt to be covered with moss and coarse Grasses. In such 

 cases an application of slaked lime, at the rate of one bushel to 

 each thousand square feet, or forty bushels to the acre, is an ex- 

 cellent corrective and sweetener, but the moss should be first 

 removed by the use of a sharp rake.

 "/ have used your Shady Nook Lawn Grass Seed for bare spots 

 under the trees, and I cannot recommend it too highly."

 FLOURISHES UNDER GREAT ELMS 

 "The Vestry has authorized me to order as enclosed, finding nothing 

 but your 'Shady Nook' grass grows under our great elms."

Hendersons Seaside 



LAWN GRASS SEED 



Along our seacoast there are many beautiful summer homes and resorts with 

 such sandy saline surroundings that a turf of the favorite lawn Grasses cannot 

 be produced. We have so often made up a mixture of special Grasses to thrive 

 under these trying conditions that we have concluded to offer it for the benefit 

 of others who may be having the same "trouble in getting Grass to grow." 

 Our "Seaside" mixture will make a good turf of green on sand where the finer 

 Grasses are not so likely to thrive, though, of course, the sand must be top- 

 dressed with not less than 2 inches of soil before even our "Seaside" Grass Seed 

 is sown, to enable the young Grass to get a start, after which the long roots — 

 peculiar to the varieties we use in this mixture — drive down deeply in the sand 

 and remain permanently self-sustaining, if attention is given to sprinkling during 

 dry weather. Use at the rate of one quart for 300 square feet ; 5 bushels per acre. 

 Price, delivered free in U. S., 25c. qt., 85c. for 4 qts., $1 .50 pk., $5.00 bu. of 20 lbs.

Henderson's Sunny South 



LAWN GRASS SEED 



It is especially prepared for the South, and contains all the best Grasses that 

 are by nature adapted for hot, dry situations. In the South, Bermuda Grass 

 is frequently used, but it remains green only in the summer months, turning 

 brown in winter; but by using this mixture, and with some care and attention 

 to watering, an all-the-year-round lawn can be maintained in Southern States 

 where Grasses do not usually thrive.

., A GREEN LAWN IN TEXAS 

 At my former home at El Paso I had a lawn of your Sunny South Lawn Grass 

 Seed which under irrigation produced the heaviest lawn I ever saw, necessitating 

 cutting three times weekly in order to make it look trim. I use your Ball-Bearing 

 Lawn Mower. L. H. VANDERWERT, Willcox, Ariz. 



Henderson's Terrace Sod 



LAWN GRASS SEED 



A special mixture of Grasses best suited for sowing on terraces, embankments 

 and hillsides; Grasses that produce long, strong, spreading roots, thus prevent- 

 ing heavy rains from washing them out; 

 that will withstand drought and expos- 

 ure, thrive on shallow soils, and at the 

 same time produce a rich, velvety-green 

 turf throughout the season. There need 

 be no fear of introducing coarse Grasses 

 into your lawn by sowing this mixture, 

 for, though strong-rooted, the Grasses 

 are equally as fine-leaved as those used 

 in the "Henderson Lawn Grass" mix- 

 ture. 



Price, delivered free in the U. S., 35c.

IT SAVES THE TROUBLE AND 

 EXPENSE OF SODDING 



"The Terrace Sod Lawn Grass Seed 

 I had from you last year does well in- 

 deed. It holds the soil firmly. "
