 " The Henderson Perfect'' La'vfi Moivtr has keen 

 in practical use ott tlie World's Columbian E.xp s 

 tion grounds ever sitice the laivns luere viade. It 

 has given entire satisfaction and proved to be a 

 machine of the highest order of perfection, and as 

 regards light running and durability it excels all 

 others. R. ULRICH. 



S tpt La id^cipi Dctiit tment 



The sharp competition in Lawn Mow- 

 ers for the past three years has so reduced 

 prices that, in consequence, the quality of 

 both material and workmanship has deter- 

 iorated to such an e.xtent that our custom- 

 ers tell us that it is almost impossit)le to 

 get a Mower that will cut satisfactorily for 

 any length of time, and the many requests 

 for a hig-h-class Mower has induced us to 

 manufacture an entirely new- lawn mower, 

 "The Henderson Perfect," and we 

 claim for it — and we guarantee the claim 

 — that it will prove the most durable of 

 any side- wheel mower ever manufactured, 

 being made of best quality new iron, 

 patent journal boxes and the knives of 

 high grade steel. It will keep sharp, cut 

 well and last three or four times as long 

 as a cheap mower. There are also many 

 details of construction essentially differ- 

 ent from any other mower, and which 

 could not be afforded on low-priced ma- 

 chines, simply made to sell. F"or instance, 

 the bottom knife-bar is stationary, making 

 the frame perfectly rigid ; the revolving 

 cutter works in patent hangers, the cutter 

 treing adjusted to the stationary knife. A 

 positive triple ratchet in each end is a 

 grand improvement giving great strength, 

 and will last as long as the Mower. The 

 gears do not move when the machine is 

 pulled back, thereby saving much friction 



and wear, and a patent terrace mowing arrangement is a very effective and a valuable addition 

 high (8 inches\ enabling the Mower to cut high grass with ease 

 surface of the lawn as smooth as velvet. -^^afaii; 



We reiterate, that "The Henderson Perfect," has been made regardless of expense, to be the best and'most 

 durable Lawn Mower ever gotten up ; and although the price is necessarily a little higher than other Mowers, yet it 

 will in the end prove much cheaper, aside from the annoying delays and expensive repairs experienced with cheap 

 Mowers.

LAWN MOWERS. 



The mechanism and high quality of material are the 

 same as in the "Henderson Perfect," offered above, with 

 the added advantages gained by drive wheels ten inches in 

 diameter and a six-inch, five bladed wiper, thus making 

 the finest cutting mower in the world, leaving absolutely 

 no irregularities on the surface of the lawn, which appears 

 as smooth as if shaved. Besides, it is the strongest, light- 

 est-draft mower on the market. For high-class lawns and 

 well-kept parks the Henderson High Wheel Five-Bladed 

 Lawn Mower is unequalled. PRICES' strictly net. No 

 charge for packing or cartage.
