LAWIM GRASS SEED 
SHADY NOOK” la Y r n asss EED 
On nearly all lawns there are unsightly bare spots under the shade of frees which 
have baffled all efforts to get into grass, but with this mixture there need be no f Ur 
ther difficulty. It is a combination of fine, dwarf-growing, evergreen varietV 
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 bog grasses. In such cases an application of slaked lime at 
the rate of one bushel to each thousand square leet, or forty bushels to the 
acre, is an excellent corrective and sweetener, but the moss should be first 
removed by the use of a sharp rake.

unusually well in our yard, where we have many oaks and sugar maples ”

"SUNNY SOUTH” Lawn Grass Seed 
is especially prepared for the South, and contains all the best grasses 
that are by nature adapted for hot, dry situations. In the South 
Bermuda grass is frequently used, but it remains green only in the 
summer months, turning brown in winter; but by using this mixture 
and with some care and attention, an all-the-year-round lawn can he 
maintained in the Southern States.

11 My grass, the *Sunny South.' is just as fine as can be. Will put all the 
balanee of the lawn in ‘ Sunni/ South.' it having stood the drought better than 
any of the others I sowed.”

TERRACE SOD 
LAWN GRASS SEED. 
A special mixture of grasses best suited for sowing on terraces, 
railroad embankments and side hills—grasses that produce 
strong, spreading roots, thus preventing heavy rains from wash¬ 
ing them out; that will withstand drought and exposure, thrive 
on shallow soils, and at the same time produce a rich, velvety 
green turf throughout the season. There need be no fear of in¬ 
troducing coarse grasses into your lawn by sowing this mixture, 
for though strong-rooted, the grasses are equally as fine-leaved 
as those used in the “Henderson" mixture. 
Price, delivered free in the U. S., 35c. qt., $1.25 for 
4 qts., $2.00 pk., $7.00 bus. of 20 lbs. 
“Your 1 Terrace Sod ’ lawn grass seed has made our terraces 
beautiful and green and it has bound the soil so firmly that even 
excessive rains have not caused a washout.”

Henderson s "SEASIDE" 
LAWN GRASS SEED. 
Along our seacoast there are many beautiful summer homes and 
resorts with such sandy saline surroundings that a turf of the favor¬ 
ite lawn grasses cannot be produced. We have so often made up a 
mixture of special grasses to thrive under these trying conditions 
that we have concluded to offer it for the benefit of others who may 
be having the same “ trouble in getting grass to grow." We do not 
claim that our “Seaside " Lawn Grass will make a lawn equaling in 
fine velvety texture those produced with the “Henderson Lawn 
Grass Seed,” but our “Seaside” mixture will make a good turf of 
green on sand where the finer grasses are not so likely to thrive, 
though, of course, the sard must be top-dressed with not less than 
2 inches of soil before even our “Seaside" grass seed is sown, to 
enable the young grass to get a start, after which the long roots— 
peculiar to the varieties we use in this mixture—drive down deeply 
in the sand and remain permanently self-sustaining, if attention is 
given to sprinkling during dry weather. CJse at the rate of one 
quart for 300 square fee'; o bushels per acre.

“My small lawn produced from your Seaside Grass Seed has been 
most satisfactory , considering the extremely sandy soil.”
