HENDERSON'S 
SPECIAL GRASS 
SEED MIXTURE' 
FOK CRICKET, POLO 
AND BALL GROUNDS. 
This is a special blend of deep-rooting, fine- 
leaved, turf-forming grasses, especially suited 
for cricket grounds, polo grounds, ball 
grounds, etc. This mixture forms a thick, 
strong, enduring turf that will stand any 
amount of hard usage without showing wear 
and tear. It grows quickly, and if soil and 
conditions are at all favorable, with attention 
to rolling and mowing, should be ready for 
hard use in eight weeks from sowing. The polo 
grounds at Lakewood, Newport, Meadow- 
brook, Rockaway Hunt, Saratoga and others, 
were laid with our Special Grass Seed. As for 
cricket and ball grounds on which our grass 
seeds have been used, they are too many to 
mention. 
Sow 50 to 100 lbs. per acre; the larger quan¬ 
tity if quick and very best results are desired.

We have given much attention to grasses for Golf Courses. The Mixtures we offer below are 
largely composed of foreign varieties that will thrive here, with the addition of several equally fine 
American varieties, and are the result of experiments conducted on our grounds, as well as careful 
watching for several years of the practical results obtained on Golf Courses sown with our grass seeds, 
such as the Golf Courses named above, and nearly all well-known Courses in the United States. By 
the use of these Mixtures, and with proper care, the finest Fair Greens and Putting Greens in the 
world can be successfully rivaled, and, if conditions are favorable, a good playing turf may be 
secured in eight weeks from time of sowing and lasting indefinitely. 
Several members of our establishment are golfers, and we thoroughly understand the require¬ 
ments, and will at all times be pleased to correspond with and advise Greens Committees.

HENDERSON'S 
“TOUGH TURF" :: :: 
:: :: :: GRASS SEED. 
For Tennis Courts, Croquet Grounds, 
Bowling Greens, etc. 
Under congenial conditions it will be ready for mowing 
4 weeks from sowing, and in 6 weeks ready for play. 
The turf required for outdoor sports must be closely inter¬ 
woven, firm, elastic, smooth and durable. These require 
ments are met in Henderson’s “Tough Turf” Mixture. It 
quickly forms an indestructible turf standing wear and tear 
of outdoor games, and is constantly green; is composed of 
native and acclimated foreign fine-leaved, fibrous, deep-root¬ 
ing grasses, that spread and intermingle, the seeds of which 
are blended in the proper proportions to form and maintain 
a tough, matted evergreen sward , even in dry weather. 
These varieties, being low-growing and fine-leaved, require to 
be sown liberally if a playing turf is desired quickly; not loss 
than one quart should be used for 300 square feet, or five 
bushels per acre; half that quantity will do for renovating. 
Price, delivered free in the U. S., 30c. qt., $1.00 for 
4 qts., $1.75 pk., $6 bus. of 20 lbs. 
For those who have preference for any one variety of Grass, or desire to make up Special Mixtures of their own, we can supply finest Recleaned Qjjalitie 
of the separate Grasses as offered on page 71.
