"WW Perfect" Lawn mower. 



Incomparably the Superior of any Mower on the Market. 



7HHE sharp competition in Lawn Mowers for the past three years has so 

 reduced prices that, in consequence, the quality of both material and 

 workmanship has deteriorated to such an extent that our customers tell 

 us that it is almost impossible to get a Mower that will cut satisfactorily for 

 any length of time, and the many requests for a high-class Mower has induced 

 us to manufacture an entirely new Lawn Mower, '"the Henderson Perfect, " and 

 we claim for it — and 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 different from any other 

 Mower, and which could not be afforded on low-priced machines, simply made 

 to sell. For instance, the bottom knife bar is stationary, making the frame 

 perfectly rigid ; the revolving cutter works on patent hangers, the cutter being 

 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. The wheels are high (s inches), enabling the Mower 

 to cut high grass with ease. It is very light-running, noiseless, and leaves the 

 surface of the lawn as smooth as velvet. 



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.

HENDERSON'S LOW=PRICED "DOORYARD" MOWER.

"coldwell" hoese lawn mower. 



a 



The 

 "MODEL" 



SWEEPER. 



Designed for use on lawns, small parks, tennis courts, etc. 

 The brush is of best bristles, 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 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 hopper. 



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, 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 a large lawn. 



The machine weighs 28 pounds, is 25 inches wide, 21-inch brush, 

 same draught as a 14-inch Mower. Price, $12. OO.
