Most Beautiful 



Lawns in 

 America 



ARE MADE WITH 



THE "HENDERSON" 

 LAWN GRASS SEED 



This celebrated mixture has been thoroughly tested by country- wide use for more than half a centurv. IT IS THE FRUIT OF YEARS 

 OF EXPERIENCE AND CLOSE STUDY OF AMERICAN CONDITIONS AND IS UNDOUBTEDLY THE BEST FOR THE 

 AMERICAN CLIMATE. By its use a deep green, velvety sward, free from clumps, can be produced in from four to six weeks' time. 



THE "HENDERSON" LAWN GRASS SEED is an intelligently arranged combination of fine-leaved, dwarf Grasses, which are at 

 their best during different months of the year, thus keeping a lawn constantly covered with enduring green. It is impossible to make 

 an enduring lawn by sowing seeds of a single variety, which will only grow vigorously for a portion of the year. Kentucky Blue Grass for 

 instance, which is sometimes recommended for lawns, grows but sparsely during midsummer, is slow to form a close sward, requiring two 

 years to do that, and loses color in hot weather. 



THE "HENDERSON" LAWN GRASS SEED is in realitv as cheap as any other, notwithstanding its superior quality. For while many 

 mixtures on the market weigh only 14 lbs. to the bushel, THE "HENDERSON" LAWN GRASS SEED weighs 20 lbs. per bushel, being 

 practically free from chaff and other foreign matter. The quantity required for new lawns is 5 bushels per acre. For a plot 15x20, or 

 300 square feet, use 1 quart. For renovating old lawns, use one-half of above quantities. Full instructions in every bag and package. 



GOLDEN OPINIONS attest the SUPERIORITY, GOLDEN MEDALS mark the TRIUMPHS 



of the "HENDERSON" LAWN GRASS SEED 



That home-owners in all parts of the United States appreciate and value at its true worth this celebrated mixture is evidenced by the 



large number of letters of recommendation annually received by us, 



" Your Lawn Grass Seed has given great satisfaction in the past, and we are 

 desirous of continuing its use." 



March 21, 1914. LIVINGSTON MANOR CORP.. New Brunswick. N. J. 



"Your Grass Seed is indeed a wonder, both for quick growth and for beauty." 



July 34, 1914. C. N. LAWS, Rapid City, S. D. 



"I am highly pleased with the Lawn Grass Seed. In my opinion it is the best I 

 have ever seen. " 



January 24, 1914. PETER LANE, Sedalia, Mo. 



" The Lawn Grass Seed I purchased from you last spring did fine. I have a fine 

 set of Grass on my lawn and am well pleased.' 1 



March 4, 1914- J. J. NELSON, Palmyra, Mo. 



" We are delighted with the results from the SO pounds of Lawn Grass seed we have 

 used, and our lawns are looking fine. We will certainly have the grounds looking 

 charming after planting the next two bags. Pease send four bushels more. " 



June 24. 1914. Mrs. CHARLES L. BRODT, McLean, Va. 



"I want to say that I used your Lawn Grass Seed last year on my new lawn and 

 the results were most gratifying. The most pleasant part of it all was that there were 

 no weeds to dig out of the lawn planted with your seed. 



"In contrast to this I might say that unfortunately I did not order quite enough seed 

 to cover my lawn last year, and because of the lateness of the season I purchased several 

 pounds of lawn seed from a local dealer, and easily 75 per cent, of the yield was weeds. " 



April 14, 1914- Dr. A. F. STOTTS, Galesburg, III. 



" We are very much gratified to say that the seed we bought from you has turned 

 out first class, and has given the writer a beautiful lawn. " 



April 11, 1914- EDGAR D. TAYLOR. Richmond, Va. 



A few of those sent to us during the year 1914 we print below: 



"My lawn is the finest in town. I made it 25 years ago and got the seed of you. 

 No velvet carpet is softer. All I do to it is use hardwood ashes and phosphate twice 

 a season, and in the sprijig sow broadcast Lawn Grass Seed and roll it." 



April 20, 1914. D. R. SMITH, Adams, Mass. 



"I am becoming firmly convinced that there is but one good Grass Seed, Henderson's 

 Lawn Grass Seed." 



July 6, 1914. NATH'L R. BRONSON, Waterbury, Conn. 



" Wish to say that I had great luck with your Lawn Grass Seed last year. It was 

 0. K. Had fine lawn in about six weeks from time of planting. Could have mowed 

 it with lawn mower had I wanted to. " 



February 27. 1914. J- C. BARSTON. Willimantic, Conn. 



"I would like you to mail me your catalogue containing description of your Lawn 

 Grass Seed. I have used it for the past two years and all who have seen it say it is 

 the finest looking lawn in this city." 



August 1, 1914. THOMAS A. LEE, 112 Walcott Street, Pawtucket, R. I. 



"Really can't get along out here without Henderson's Grass Seed. Two years 

 ago I sowed part of my lawn with your seed. It is far ahead of anything else in the 

 neighborhood." 



August 24, 1914. HERBERT HUNT, 3730 N. 28th St., Tacoma, Wash. 



" Henderson Lawn Grass Seed is the best that ever came to Deadwood." 



April loth, 1914. W. J. THORNBY, Deadwood, S. D. 



" The seed used on my lawn at home is 'Dandy' and I now have a lawn as smooth 

 and velvety as a carpet." 



May 31, 1914. CHAS. E. MASON, Birmingham, Ala.
