TOWNSEND'S TRIPLEX ,„r 



3WNSEND"S TRIPLEX 



Drawn by one horse and operated by one man, the 

 TRIPLEX MOWER will mow more lawn in a day 

 than the best motor mower ever made, cut it better 

 and at a fraction of the cost. , 



Drawn by one horse and operated by one man, it will 

 mow more lawn in a day than any three ordinary 

 horsedrawn mowers with three horses and three men. 



Floats over the uneven ground as a ship tides the 

 waves. One mower may be climbing a knoll, the 

 second skimming a level and the third paring a hollow. 

 Does not smash the grass to earth and plaster it in the 

 mud in springtime nor crush out its life between 

 hot rollers and hard hot ground in summer as does 

 the motor mower.
