PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK 



Made of Rolled Sheet Steel. Weighs only 280 lbs. 



Loads up to 600 lbs. Made Scientifically Correct. 



Draft 20 per cent. Lighter than any other Roller of 



Equal Size. 



THE;* HENDERSON" MANPOWER 



WATER BALLAST ROLLER. 



THE advantages'of a Roller, the weight of which can be increased or lightened at pleasure, can 

 scarcely be overestimated. Often on light orsandy soil, or on newly-made lawns, orin early 

 spring when the ground is moist, or after a rainy spell, a lighter weight Roller is a neces- 

 sity ; 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 thumb-cap 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. 



Rut 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 superiority of our Roller is espe- 

 cially 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 

 punching 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 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, twentv-four inch diameter, weighing 280 lbs., loads to 600 lbs., 

 $25.00.

HENDERSON'S MODEL HAND LAWN SWEEPER, 



FOB, PINE LAWNS AND GOLF GREENS. 



The brush revolves very rapidlv, throwing the litter backward from 

 Its under surface and over a thin shoe. The operation involves the 

 principle of "dust-pan and broom." In addition to this, the revolv- 

 ing brush creates a strong current of air that blows the litter back 

 into the rear of the hopper. If sticks, stones or leaves 

 are encountered, the shoe does not allow them to pass 

 under It, but provides a passage over it into the hop- 

 per. The revolving brush is pressed against the 

 ground, allowing the machine to be used on 

 clipped and undipped lawns, over rough 

 or smooth ground. The machine does 

 nice work, and 

 leaves the grass 

 clean and velvety. 

 The hopper can he 

 dumped or taken 

 outandemptied. It \ 

 takes only a few 

 minutes to go over 

 a large lawn. (See 

 cut.)

 weighs twenty- 

 eight lbs., is twen- 

 ty-five inches wide, 

 twenty -one inch 

 brush. Price, 

 $11.00.
