Now — A Power Mower 

 for Medium Sized Lawns 



For years Ideal Power Lawn Mowers have been used for taking 

 care of large lawns. The thousands of Ideal Mowers in use have 

 definitely demonstrated their labor saving, money making 

 qualifications. 



tj 



However, there are thousands 

 of lawns hardly large enough to 

 warrant the purchase of a larpe 

 power mower, yet with so much 

 grass to cut that proper care be- 

 comes a big problem— and an ex- 

 pensive problem. 



It was for this vast number of 

 medium sized lawns tliat the 

 Ideal Junior Power Mower was 

 designed. It is moderate in price, 

 dependable, easy to handle, an<i 

 costs little to operate. 



The Ideal Junior is exactly the 

 right machine for homes with 

 lawns too large to conveniently 

 care for witli hand mowers — for 

 mowing the putting greens on 

 golf courses— and for parks and 

 cemeteries as an auxiliary unit
