 no tendency to stool or grow in clumps. It roots deeply and withstands severe droughts wii hout turn ng 

 brown, maintaining its beautiful deep green color throughout the season. We have made th» 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 months of the year, so that a rich, deep green, velvety lawn is constantly maintained, rivaling the 

 famous lawns of Old England. 



THE "HENDERSON" LAWN GRASS SEED is, relatively speaking, the cheapest seed offered, 

 because, while the lawn grass mixtures of other seedsmen will not average over 14 lbs. to the bushel, this 

 weighs from 20 to 21 lbs. per measured bushel. 



Full instructions of "HOW TO MAKE A LAWN" are given with every package.

 a plot r$x20 y or 300 square feel, I quart is required for new, or 1 pint for renovating old lawns. 

 Prices, 20c. per quart, $1.25 per peck. $4.50 per bushel of 20 lbs.

"The /awns from your seed are the finest

 J fear we shall have to flow them up and re- 

 sozv with your seed.''
