J-—=3 WATER BALLAST ROLLER. 
Made of Rolled Sheet Steel. Weighs only 280 Ibs. Loads 
up to 600 Ibs. Made Scientifically Correct. Draft 20 per 
cent Lighter than any other Roller of Equal Size. 
The advantages of a Roller, the weight of which can be increased or lightened at pleasure, 
can searcely be overestimated. Often on light or sandy soil, or on newly-made lawns, or in 
early spring when the ground is moist, or after a rainy spell, a lighter weight Roller is a 
necessity ; then on thick sward or on hard soil, on walks and roads, a heavy Roller is needed. 
With the Henderson Water Ballast Roller one can secure any weight desired, between 
280 and 600 pounds, by simply removing a thumbcap from each end and filling the two, 
hollow sections with as much water or sand as may be needed, which is easily and quickly 
done with a hose, or through a funnel; and the Roller is as quickly emptied. 
The inside being heavily galvanized, it will last for years. 
But the Henderson Water Ballast Roller has other important merits: As 
a larger diameter lightens the draft, our roller drums, being of cold rolled 
sheet steel, are made twenty-four inches in diameter (six feet circumference), 
and are still lighter than cast-iron drums twenty inches in diameter (five feet 
circumference); in consequence, the Henderson Water Ballast Roller pulls fully 
twenty per cent easier than a cast-iron Roller of equal weight, and being in 
two sections, it handles easily and turns without rubbing the grass. The 
superior:ty of our Roller is especially pronounced when rolling moist, pliable 
ground, when rolling is most effective, as the steel drums are smooth and 
will not gather soil or grass, and besides there is no danger of a stone punch- 
ing a hole through the face, as sometimes happens with cast Rollers. The 
axles are steel shafting working in lathe-bored journals, making the Roller 
almost noiseless; the handle is counterbalanced and stands erect when not in use; the ends are handsomely finished in red and gold; the sections fit closely and are 
perfectly round—in fact, it is a perfect Roller, and does perfect work on lawns, tennis courts, golf grounds, roads, walks,etc. (See cut.) Price, Henderson’s Water 
Ballast Steel Roller, twenty-four inches wide in two sections, twenty-four inch diameter, weighing 280 lbs., 
loads to 600 lbs., $25.00. 
HENDERSON’S LOW-PRICED CAST-IRON HAND ROLLER. 
For use on the lawn, a ‘“‘ Two Section’’ Roller is usually chosen, as it can be turned without injuring the grass. ‘‘ One 
Section”’ Rollers will be preferable for walks, tennis courts, ete., as they leave no mark. About 300 Ibs. is the weight 
chosen for one-man power for lawns. The handles of our Rollers are weighted so they always keep up from the ground, 
clean and out of the way. Our new Steel Lawn Rollers are the best, but if a cheaper Roller is wanted, our ‘‘Cast-Iron”’ 
will give good satisfaction. (See cut.)

Henperson’s “MODEL” HAND LAWN SWEEPER. 
Designed for use on lawns, small parks, tennis courts, etc. The brush revolves very rapidly. 
throwing the litter backward from its under surface. Immediately behind the brush, and parallel 
with it, a thin shoe passes along over the ground, with its upper surface inclined. 
The operation involves the principle of ‘‘dust-pan and broom.”’ In addition to 
this, the revolving brush creates a strong current of air that blows the litter back 
5 into the rear of the hopper. If sticks, stones or leaves are encountered, the shoe 
Henderson’s does not allow them to pass under it, but provides a passage 
«© MODEL” over it into the hopper. 
The revolving brush is pressed against the ground, allowing 
the machine to be used on clipped and unclipped lawns, over 
rough or smooth ground. The machine does nice, clean work. 
It does not tear the sod nor dig up the earth like a rake, but 
leaves the grass clean and velvety. The hopper can be dumped 
or taken out and emptied. It takes only a few minutes to go 
over alargelawn. (See cut.) 
The machine weighs twenty-eight lbs., is twenty-five inches 
wide, twenty-one inch brush. Price, $10.00.
