PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK— LAWN MOWERS 



t1 



THE HENDERSON 



SELF-ADJUSTING 

 BALL-BEARING 



LAWN MOWER. 



THE KING OF LAWN MOWEKS. LIGHT RUNNING, NOISELESS — DURABLE. 



SELF ADJUSTING, DRAW CUT. ALWAYS SHARP. DOES NOT PULL THE GRASS. 

 Leaves the Lawn Smooth and Free from Corrugation. 

 THE HENDERSON BALL-BEARING LAWN MOWER is made without regard to cost— to be the best, most 

 durable, and the easiest-working Mower on the market, and while the prices are necessarily a little higher than those 

 of Mowers simply made to sell, yet in the end our Mower will prove much cheaper, aside from annoying delays and repairs 

 experienced with cheap Mowers. 



THE HENDERSON BALL-BEARING MOWER has high drive wheels, large, open non-clogging cylinder. The spiraj 



of the knives is correctly pr-r -"^ 1 to give a continuous cut, leaving the lawn as smooth as if shaved entirely free 



from the corrugated surface left by other Mowers. The handles are braced 



^ and remforced to prevent twisting and breaking when one side of the 



^ Mower is held off the ground, and besides the handle is equipped with 



, improved "grips" which keeps the hands in a natural position, gives 



\ more power, and is less tiresome than a continued grasp, with 



wrists twisted, on a horizontal grip. (See engraving.)

Note. — We can supply these mowers 



either with five or eight blades, but 



always send the five-bladed mower 



unless otherwise ordered. The 



eight-bladed mower cuts finer, 



can be set to mow close to 



ground, and is extensively 



used on putting-greens, but 



it runs a little harder than 



the five-bladed mov.-er. 



GRASS CATCHERS for 

 the Henderson "Ball-Bear- 

 ing " Lawn Mowers of 



superior heavy duck; bot- 

 tom of galvanized iron that 

 will not sag or drag on the 

 ground when filled; they 

 are quickly attached, re- 

 moved or dumped. {For 

 prices, see above.) 



Henderson's Border and Terrace Mower. 



Especially designed to cut the grass on borders — the nar- 

 row strips of sod sometimes only a few inches wide — between 

 flower beds and walks where a side-wheel mower would have 

 one wheel down in the gutter, and in consequence the mower 

 would cut into the sod. In our Border Mower a large light 

 cylinder extends the full width of the mower and keeps the 

 machine level with the surface and does perfect work. This 

 machine is also useful for regular lawn work. It is very light 

 running, and will give thorough satisfaction.

The Philadelphia "All- Steel" Lawn Mower. 



This all-steel. Style A, Philadelphia mower is about the 

 last word in lawn mower construction, The frame, being 

 made of steel in place of cast iron, is much lighter, stronger 

 and not liable 1;o break any place. The drive wheels, 10 in. 

 in diameter, gives great traction power and spin the 4-bladed 

 6>2-in. revolving cutter with great speed, thus leaving a 

 smoothly cut surface. The train of three gears keeps the cutters 

 down to their work and prevents "bobbing up" m high grass.

Excelsior Roller Lawn Mower 



An old reliable lawn mower for those preferring a roller 

 mower which, of course has some advantages over side-wheel 

 mowers, as in mowing new lawns where the ground is still 

 soft and impressionable, cutting narrow borders, where a 

 side-wheel machine will run off the edge, rolling down worm 

 casts, ant hills, etc.; but to offset these merits, roller mowers 

 do push a little harder. Excelsior Roller Mowers are dur- 

 ably made with best crucible steel knives and the adiust- 

 ments are simple and with the -l-bladed revolving cutter is 

 adapted for all lawn cutting. The 6-bladcd cutter is for 

 extra fine work and for golf courses, tennis courts, etc., but 

 runs harder.
