A LAWN MOWER Flp Premluimtaiian Bees. 



FOR ONLY $5.00. 



Isn't it true, that a neiitlj- kept lawn is evideuce ot 

 an intelligrent and progressise spirit possessed by 

 the owner? A lazy and shiftless man seldom has 

 any lawn at all. Many whose occupation keeps 

 them indoors a great part of the day. derive health 

 and enjoyment in takini; care of a lawn, even 

 though it be just a little one. And what makes life 

 pleasanter than to see pleasant homes as we happen 

 to pass along our country roads or village streets": 

 Where you see a handsome lawn outside, you will 

 almost always flud the magazines and progressive 

 journals of the day inside One impediment in the 

 way of these handsome lawns is the expense of a 

 lawn-mower; and as we have spent some time in 

 looking the matter up, and trying the difterent 

 kinds, especially those adapted to mowing around 

 bee-hives, I herewith give the result of it. 



The one pictured seems to please us best of all 

 for working in the ajjiary; and another thing that 

 pleases me is that it costs for the 10 inch, only $3.00; 

 13 inch, the standard size, *5 .'jd, and the 1+ inch, 

 $6.0(1. The 10-inch one runs a little easier, of course, 

 and it may therefore be preferable foi- a lady or for 

 a child. Its simplicity is an advantage in the apia- 

 ry, for it will run up close to the entrances, and it 

 will cut weeds and grass of a considerable height 

 without difficulty. We can furnish them promptly 

 at the prices named. As the machine weighs but 50 

 lbs., it will probably go cheaper by freight.
