 no tendency to stool or grow in clumps. It roots deeply and withstands severe droughts wiihout turning- 

 brown, maintaining its beautiful deep green color throughout the season. We have made the formation of 

 permanent lawns a study for vears, 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 nourish during 

 different months of the year, so that a rich, deep green, velvety lawn is constantly maintained, rivaling the 

 famous la vns of Old England. . , '. . , ^
