The Most Beautiful Lawns in America

FOUR WEEKS FROM SOWING , IT IS READY FOR MOWING 
iiiiHiunniiiiiiuiiirai 
This celebrated lawn grass seed mixture has been thoroughly tested 
by country-wide use for more than half a century. IT IS THE 
FRUIT OF YEARS OF EXPERIENCE AND CLOSE STUDY 
OF AMERICAN CONDITIONS AND IS UNDOUBTEDLY 
THE BEST FOR THE AMERICAN CLIMATE. By its use 
a deep, green, velvety sward, free from clumps, can be produced in 
from four to six weeks’ time. 
The “HENDERSON” LAWN GRASS SEED is an intelli¬ 
gently arranged combination of fine-leaved, dwarf Grasses, which 
are at their best during different months of the year, thus keeping 
a lawn constantly covered with enduring green. It is impossible to 
make an enduring lawn by sowing seed of a single variety, which 
will only grow vigorously for a portion of the year. Kentucky Blue 
Grass, for instance, which is sometimes recommended for lawns, 
grows but sparsely during midsummer, is slow to form a close sward, 
requiring two years to do that, and loses color in hot weather. Be¬ 
sides its country-wide use on the home grounds of the people, the 
“HENDERSON” LAWN GRASS SEED has invariably been 
chosen to produce lawns at many of the most famous institutions 
in the country. It has been used for a number of years with ex¬ 
cellent results, on the Parade Grounds at the United States Military 
Academy at West Point, N. Y. (see opposite page). The refreshing 
green and the close turf which attract the attention of the hundreds 
of thousands who annually visit the baseball grounds in this country, 
particularly the Polo Grounds in New York and Ebbets Field in 
Brooklyn, were produced wit! the “ HENDERSON ’’LAW N GRASS 
SEED. At the various International Expositions held in the 
United States — notably the Centennial at Philadelphia, the Colum¬ 
bian at Chicago, the Pan-American at Buffalo, the Louisiana Pur¬ 
chase at St. .Louis, the Lewis & Clark at Portland, and the Jamestown 
at Norfolk, — gold medals were awarded to lawns made with the 
“HENDERSON” LAWN GRASS SEED. 
“HENDERSON” LAWN GRASS SEED is sold 20 lbs. per 
bushel, being practically free from chaff and other foreign matter. 
The quantity required for new lawns is 5 bushels per acre. For a 
plot 15 x 20, or 300 square feet, use 1 quart. For renovating old lawjis, 
use one-half of above quantities. Full instructions in cvefy bag and 
package.

Henderson’s Shady Nook 
LAWN GRASS SEED 
On nearly all lawns there are unsightly bare spots under the shade 
of the trees, which have baffled all efforts to get into grass, but 
with this mixture there need be no further difficulty. It is a combi¬ 
nation of fine, dwarf growing, evergreen varieties, which'in 
their wild or natural state are to be found growing in the woods 
or other sheltered and shaded spots. Ground^ that has been 
densely shaded by trees is frequently “sour,” and if the 
drainage is defective it is apt to be covered with moss and 
coarse grasses. In such cases an application of slaked 
lime, at the rate of one bushel to each thousand square 
feet, or forty bushels to the acre, is an excellent cor¬ 
rective and sweetener, but the moss should be first re¬ 
moved by the use of a sharp rake.

4 qts., $2.75 pk. of 5 lbs-, $10.00 bu. of 20 lbs. 
“On July 15 th we seeded many bare spots'under the large trees 
with Henderson's Shady Nook Grass Seed. 
Now in thirty-five days of midsummer, the spots are closely 
covered with beautiful green grass greatly admired by all.'

Henderson’s Sunny South 
LAWN GRASS SEED 
It is especially prepared for the South, and contains all 
the best grasses that are by nature adapted for hot, dry situ¬ 
ations. In the South, Bermuda Grass is frequently used, but it 
remains green only in the summer months, turning brown in the 
winter; but by using this mixture, and with some care and attention 
to watering, an all-the-year-round lawn can be maintained in bouthern 
States where grasses do not usually thrive. , -
