L-awn Grass Seed 



Will form a close, thick turf in a few week's time ; with no tendency to stool or grow in chimps 

 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 studv 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 ot Old England. 



If people only knew how comparatively easy it is to make a lawn with the " Henderson " Lawn Grass 

 Seed, the days of using Sod, with all the attendant expense, would soon be over. 



The beautiful Lawns at the World's Fair in Chicago we produced in six week's time with 

 the "Henderson " Lawn Grass Seed Not one of the charming features of the Exposition was so 

 universally admired as our " setting of emerald velvet," which notwithstanding the long continued 

 drought of the summer, retained its verdure throughout (he entire season Besides being the only lawn 

 grass seed granted a medal, we exhibited the separate grasses used in the mixture and received Seven 

 Awards for superior quality and purity of samples. 



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.

BUFFALO, N. Y., 

 The Superiority of 



The " Henderson" 

 LAWN GRASS SEED 



has already drawn forth favorable com- 

 ment from the Hanagers of the 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. U LRICH. 



Sept. /st, iqoo. 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 BEAUTI- 

 FUL RICH GREEN color, so much darker 

 and different from any of the others, some 

 of which are of such a pale yellow green that 

 I fear we shall have to plow them up and re- 

 sow with your seed."
