HENDERSON'S WORM-KILLING GRASS FOOD 



Henderson's Worm-Killing Grass Food not only stimulates the grass ou 

 lawns, putting-greens, tennis courts, croquet grourids, etc., into rich green 

 growth but it quickly climirates the earth or angle worms that burrow in the 

 turf, causing the soil to beccme sticky, sour and loosening the roots so that 

 hot sun and dry weather cause the grass to turn yellow and die out in spots. 

 For putting-greens it is invaluable, keeping them free from worm casts, level 

 and true without the trouble and expense of daily brushing and rolling. Use 

 one i:>ound for each two sfpiare vards.
