‘From PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK 201 
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 use

" Henderson’s Garden Fertilizer 
Best Grade---Highly Concentrated 
Contains all the Food Elements Required for Quality Vegetables and Flowers 
: No xoemesstall 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 ean 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- 
eation 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 isa 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

extended period. Early maturity is also of vital importance for the commere 
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 1s followed, a uniform 
degree of fertility may be maintained in the-soil. It should be applied 
atter plowing or digging and just before harrowing or raking at the rate of 
4 to 1 ton to the acre or ten pounds for plot 10 x 20 or 200 square feet. A 
font top-dressing applied at intervals while a crop is growing, will produce 
magnificent results.

_ 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 dress- 
ing 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 during rainy weather or 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 
nsightliness, diagreeable odors, so often full of weed seeds.

For New and Old Lawns, Athletic Fields, Golf Courses, Etc. 
It is Odorless, and Quickly Induces a Luxuriant Green Growth 
QUANTITY REQUIRED 
For forming a new lawn a 10-pound package is sufficient to go over an area 
of 200 square feet, or 1000 to 1500 pounds 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 during rainy weather or 
water in thoroughly with a hose.
