QUANTITY REQUIRED 
For forming a new lawn a 10-pound 
package is sufficient to go over an area 
of 300 square feet, or 1000 to 1500 
pounds per acre, or a smaller quantity for 
renovating an old lawn. Apply broad¬ 
cast with machine or by hand as evenly 
as possible on a quiet day and prefer¬ 
ably just before rain. If applied during 
the summer use half of the quantity

of a lawn is to be maintained, it must be top dressed, at least once a 
year, with suitable fertilizer. The Henderson Lawn Enricher is a 
clean and odorless lawn dressing which never fails in inducing a rapid and 
rich green growth. It should be sown broadcast in the spring or fall, and a 
remarkable improvement will soon be observed. If applied during the 
summer use half of the quantity and during rainy weather or water in thor¬ 
oughly with a hose. The use of “Henderson Lawn Enricher” entirely does 
away with the old practice of top-dressing lawns with stable manure, so 
objectionable on account of unsightliness, disagreeable odors, so often full 
of weed seeds.
