DOES NOT PULL THE 

 GRASS. 



Leaves the Lawn Smooth 

 and Free from Corrugation. 



THE HENDERSON BALL-BEARING LAWN MOWER is 



the best, most durable, and the easiest-working Mower on the 

 market. The axles of the revolving cutter, work in sell-adjusting 

 " ball-bearing " journal boxes or cups, which reduces the fric- 

 tion enormously. A 21-inch cuts the grass as easily as a 16-inch 

 old-style Mower. The castings are lathe-turned and bored, and 

 the journals machine-trimmed, which insures smoothness in 

 working, with no irregularities to wear off and leave rattle and 

 play. The knives, of the finest steel and temper, cut like 

 razors, the self-adjusting ball-bearings keep the revolving 

 knives perfectly true, so they wear evenly and to the same 

 bevel against the under or stationary knife; and, 

 in consequence, are self-sharpening. 



It has high drive wheels, large, open, non-clog- 

 ging cyUnder placed far enough back to pre- 

 vent any " kicking up " when the Mower 

 strikes heavy grass. The spiral of the knives 

 is correctly proportioned to give a continuous 

 cut. leaving the lawn as smooth as if shaved. 

 The handle is braced and reinforced to pre- 

 vent twisting and breaking, and besides is 

 equipped with improved " grips." which 

 keeps the hands in a natural position, gives 

 more power, and is less tiresome than a 

 continued grasp, on a horizontal grip. 



GRASS CATCHERS for the Henderson 

 " Ball-Bearing " Lawn Mowers are of su- 

 perior heavy duck; bottom of galvanized 

 iron that will not sag nor drag on the 

 ground when fiUed; they are quickly at- 

 tached, removed or dumped.

The Universal Lawn Trimmer. 



The latest and best machine that we know of for trimming 

 grass close up to the fence or wall, thus reducing hand work 

 with shears to a minimum. It will also be found handy for 

 trimming up around trees, under bushes, etc., and in cemeteries 

 it will be a boon. It cuts 6 inches in width. This Lawn Trim- 

 mer is a high-grade machine in every respect with self-adjusting 

 ball bearings preventing any " end play," thus keeping the 

 knives always set. wearing to the same bevel and therefore 

 always sharp. The handle being on line with the driving wheel 

 overcomes the tendency of the machine to run sidewisc — so 

 annoying in other machines designed for a similar purijose. 

 Price $5.00.
