Henderson’s 
SPECIAL GRASS SEED MIXTURE FOR 
Hay and Permanent Pasture 
It Produces Wonderful Hay Crops and Luxuriant Pasture 
Maintaining Its Cropping Qualities Twenty Years or More 
This famous mixture has seeded thousands of acres of meadow 
and pasture land for progressive farmers and stock raisers in vari¬ 
ous parts of the United States, with most gratifying results. It 
is a well-balanced combination of a number of native and accli¬ 
mated foreign Grasses and Clovers, blended and improved upon 
during exhaustive trials under widely varied conditions, soils and 
localities for several years, until practically perfect, our aim be¬ 
ing to produce, under the extremes of the American climate of 
heat, drought and cold, a Permanent, dense and deep-rooting 
turf that would yield year after year the maximum quantity of 
forage. These Grasses are of superior quality, inviting, sweet and 
nourishing, whether used as hay or pasture. That we have been 
successful is attested by the numerous letters of praise for these 
special Grass mixtures that we have received from the users, and 
the tributes to their merits published in many of the agricultural 
journals. 
In preparing these mixtures the greatest care is exercised in 
selecting such varieties as are suited to the soil to be sown, and to 
realize the object in view. Therefore a description of the soil 
and climate, and the purpose for which sown, and if with or with¬ 
out a grain crop, should accompany each order. Sow 40 lbs. 
per acre. Full directions for sowing enclosed in every bag. 
Price, (purchaser paying carriage), 36c. per lb.; TO lbs., $3.25; 
100 lbs., $30.00.

Regarding Glovers 
Do not omit to sow Clovers with the Grasses, as they add 
to the yield of hay and pasture, and by their ability to collect 
atmospheric nitrogen and store it in the root nodules, assist the 
growth of the Grasses and are of considerable benefit to sub¬ 
sequent crops. i 
Mixed Permanent Clovers, on account of their greater weight, 
should be sown separately, but at the same time as the Grasses. 
This Mixed Clover comprises White, Mammoth Perennial or 
Cow Grass, Alsike, etc. Sow 10 pounds per acre. Price, 60c. 
per lb.; 10 lbs., $4.75; 100 lbs., $45.00. _
