Don't stop for anything. 

 Keep pushing every day. 



Make today bigger than yester- 

 day and tomorrow bigger than 



today. 



And don't depend en- 

 tirely on YOURSELF. 



If your work is on the eighteenth 

 floor of an office building, DON'T 

 WALK UP THE STAIRS- 

 USE THE ELEVATOR. If you 

 want to ask a question of someone 

 on the other side of the city, DON'T 

 SPEND HALF A DAY GOING TO 



SEE HIM— USE THE TELEPHONE. 

 Take adraDtage of the modern forces ALL 

 AROUND YOU. Take advantage of the 

 wonderful opportunities that other brains 

 and organizations have provided to SAVE 

 YOUR TIME AND SAVE LABOR AND 

 HELP YOU MAKE MONEY. 



Take advantage of the 



power of "Review" Classified 

 Ads. They have built large and 

 permanent business for many — 

 for thousands of florists they have 

 saved dumping a surplus; turned a 

 loss into a quick profit. 



They will do as much 



for you— but it is up to you to 

 act. It is up to you to ofifer 

 nothing but good stock, worth 



the money, and to get your ad to 

 the office of "The Review" by 



4:00 P. M. NEXT TUESDAY

 Mowers 



) 



Ideal Power Lawn Mowers arc 



great labor eavers. Any man 



with an Ideal can easily cat as much grass as five faard-workinK 



men could cut with hand mowers. Moreover, as the Ideal Is 



designed with the roller as an Integral part of the machine, the 



grass is rolled every time it la cat — this keeps the turf firm, 



smooth and In the finest possible condition. 



Cuts Four tolFive Acres a Day« 



The mower has 30-lnch blades and with one man to guide It, cuts 

 four to five acres of lawn a day, on an operating expense of 

 fifty ceuts for fuel and oil. The Ideal Is of extremely simple de- 

 sign with no complicated clutches nor gears. All the operator 

 has to do Is to guide the machine and operate the starting and 

 stopping lever. 



Uses Tractor Principle 



The cutting blades operate by the traction of their side wheels 

 upon the ground, just the same as the blades on a hand mower 

 operate. This eliminates the difficulties that are almost sure to 

 occur where an attempt is made to drive the blades direct by 

 power from the engine. 



Cuts Close to the Walks, Trees, Flower- 

 beds and Shrubbery 



with the Ideal a man can work just as close to various obstacles 

 as with a hand mower. The mower Is hung at the front In such 

 a manner that it turns easily and Is guided around corners, 

 flower-beds, trees, etc., without difficulty. 



Photo at right shows how the Ideal is quickly converted into a 

 power >oller by u«ing the small caster which we furnlsli. Val- 

 uable feature for early spring rolling.

 Ideal Power Lawn Mower Co.: 

 » The 'Ideal Power Lawn Mower we purchased 

 last spring has proved to be a life-saver to us, 

 coming as it did at the time when labor was so 

 scarce and high. It proved equal to two horses 

 and several men, as it worked up close to ob- 

 structions and saved much hand work in this 

 way. Yours very truly, 



F. L. HOWARD, Supt.

 Ideal Power Lawn Mower Co.: 



I have about three acres of lawn to cut. Thanks 

 to the Ideal Power Lawn Mower, my lawn looked 

 much better this summer than it ever has before. 

 I believe much credit is due to the roller attach- 

 ment. In ;;my judgment, it would require at 

 least four men with ordinary hand mowers to 

 do the same amount of work as I am getting out 

 of my Ideal. Yours very truly, 



JOHN L. BROCK.
