...THE SUPERIORITY OF... 



THe "Henderson" Lawn Grass Seed 



has already drawn forth favorable comment 

 from the Managers of the Pan-American 

 Exposition Grounds, as follows: : : : 



' ' It affords me great pleasure to inform you 

 that .your Lawn Grass Seed has come up 

 splendidly. It is the best seed that I have 

 ever seen and by far superior to any other 

 that has been sown here." R. ULRICff, 



Sup't Landscape Dep't. 

 And later Mr. Ulrich informs us: 



" The lawns from your seed are the finest on 

 our grounds; they are of that BEAUTIFI'L 

 RICH GREEN color, so much darker and 

 different fromany of the others, some of which 

 are of such a pale yellow green that I tear we 

 shall have to plow them up and resow with 

 your seed."

THE "HENDERSON 1 " LAWN GRASS SEED will form a close, thick turl 

 in a few weeks' time, with no tendency to stool or grow in clumps. It roots deeply and 

 withstands severe droughts without turning brown, maintaining its beautiful deep 

 green color throughout the season. We have made the formation of permanent lawns 

 a study for years, and the Finest Lawns in this country to-day were obtained 

 by using' the " Henderson " Lawn Grass Seed, which is composed of various 

 grasses that grow and flourish during different mouths of the year, so that a rich, deep 

 green, velvety lawn is constantly maintained, rivaling the famous lawns ol Old 

 England

 cheapest seed offered, because, while the lawn grass mixtures of other seedsmen will not

"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, bnt with
