 128.-LAWN MOWERS. 



Applications are frequently made to us for information where to 

 obtain the best Lawn Mowers for the all-round work of keeping in 

 order, Tennis Lawns, Cricket Grounds, Golf Links, &c., &c. We 

 have found that the machines supplied us by the firm of Messrs. 

 Eansome's, Sims & Jeffries are very durable and efiective. 



A recent improvement in these mowing machines renders them 

 still more fit for colonial use, for where skilled labour for working and 

 for effecting repairs is hard to obtain, it is essential that the construc- 

 tion of the machines should be simple, and easily understood. 



Through the kindness of the Firm I am able to give figures of 

 some of their productions which I trust may be of service to readers 

 of the Bulletin, and I shall be at any time happy to give further 

 advice or assistance in the matter to any person who may require it. 



We have had the 16 inch Paris and the 14 inch Automaton in 

 use for several years — and we replace the cutting parts, bushes, &c., 

 as required by orders on the makers, always maintaining a full set of 

 duplicate parts on hand, so that we can replace a breakage at any 

 moment. 



No. 1.- ANGLO-PARIS LAWN MOWER. 



A SUITABLE machine for small lawns and may be used very 

 economically for larger spaces in dry weather.
