Feeds the Grass and Eliminates the Worms 
Henderson’s Worm-Killing Grass Food not only stimulates the grass on 
lawns, putting-greens, tennis courts, croquet grounds, etc., into rich green 
growth but it quickly eliminates the earth or angle worms that burrow in the 
turf in almost unbelievable quantities, causing the soil to become sticky, sour 
and loosening it and the roots so that hot sun and dry weather cause the 
grass to turn yellow and die out in spots. More lawn troubles are traceable 
to earth worms than most people realize and we advise all whose grass is not 
as good as it should be to apply Henderson’s Worm-Killing Grass Food at 
the rate of A pound to a square yard during rainy weather or else water in 
thoroughly with a hose. The worms will then almost immediately come to 
the suface and die. For putting-greens it is invaluable, keeping them free 
from worm casts, level and true without the trouble and expense of daily 
brushing and rolling. It is used by many Golf and Country Clubs and on 
many private grounds in the United States, and all users are gratified with the 
results. Henderson’s Worm-Killing Grass Food is a non-poisonous powder 
not injurious to animal or bird life. Its fertilizing properties while combined 
into a well-balanced grass food are not so strong but that it can safely be 
applied on grass according to directions at any season of the year. Use one 
pound for each two square yards. Though late in the season when the 
worms are deep in the ground the quantity may be increased.

“ Was more than pleased with your Worm- Killing Grass Food. It is a sure 
exterminator of the angle worm. Our grass was very much improved in quality 
and evenness of surface by the use of it. Will place another order for it with you 
next spring.” „ ,

Hendersons Fluid Weed Destroyer 
It completely destroys all weeds, wherever applied, and by its effect on the 
ground prevents the growth of fresh ones for a year afterwards, thus saving an 
immense amount of labor in hoeing, etc. For brick walks it is a boon. Its 
application is easy, being in a liquid form and only requiring to be mixed with 
water and applied with a watering can or sprinkling cart. If the ground is 
very dry it should first be sprinkled with clear water, so the Weed Destroyer 
will not soak away too quickly. Where large weeds and docks arc to be des¬ 
troyed it is best to mow or chop off the tops first. Full directions for use 
with each package. (Not mailable.)

the walks thoroughly in the spring with your 'Weed Destroyer' diluted with water, 
it has kept the weeds and moss away and the walks in apple pie order."

“Climax” Lawn Sand 
A non-poisonous. dried chemical, which evenly distributed at about 4 ounces 
per square yard kills weeds by adhering to their broad flat leaves, but falling to

a permanent growth quickly covers the portions previously occupied by weeds 
and moss.

texture and richer in color. It is marvelous how quickly the grass responds 
and how lasting the improvement. Price, 3 Yi lbs., 70c. {Mail 7veight 4 lbs.);
