THE'HENDERSON"
LAWN GRASS SEED
The "
Lawn Grass
Seed
is the best for our
American climate
WITH IT YOU CAN MAKE
Lawns, Grass Plots, etc.,
as soft as velvet and as green as emerald all summer
long, in from six to eight weeks' time.
THE "HENDERSON" LAWN GRASS SEED will form a close, thick turf in a few
■weeks' tiriK', with no idideucy to stool or grow in cliuups. Ii roots dfPiil3' and wiilistaiids
severe droughts without turning brown, maintaining its beautiful deep green color tlir oui/hout
the season. We have mad ■ the tormatio?i of permanent lawns a study for year~. a;)-! the Finest
Lawns in this country to-day were obtained by using the •Henderson ' Law^ii Grass
Seed, which is composed of various grasses that grow and flourish during ddferent nioni li^ n(
the year, so that a rich, deep green, velvety lawn is constantly maintained, rivaling the fanums
lawns of Old England.
If people only knew how comparatiifely easy if is to make a lawn^ with the "Henderson" Lawn Grass
Seed, the djys of using sod, with all the attendant expense, would soon be over.
The beautiful lawns at t'.ia "World's Fair in Chicago we produced in six weeks' time with
the 'Henderson" Lawn Grass Seed. Not one of tlv charming features of the Ex.iosition
was .'^o universally admired as our "setting of emerald velvet," which, notwithstanding the
long-continued drought of the summer, retained iV.s verdure throurjhoui Ike entire seasoi--. Besides
being the only lawn grass seed gr.uitej a medal, we exliibited the snpurate grasses used in the
mixture, and received Seven Aw^ards fi.r siipeiinr quality and .)urily of samples.
THE ■ HENDERSON " LA-WN GRASS SEED is, relatively speaking, the cheapest seed
offeied biT.iuse, while the lawn grass mixtures oi other seedsmen will not average over 14 lbs.

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
