HENDERSON'S "CHAMPION" SOD=CUTTER. 



A horse-power machine for cutting sod inlongr strips ; an important and 

 valuable implement for golf grounds, parks and other places which have 

 much sod laying or repairing to do. It cuts the sod of uniform width and 

 thickness, in any length, so that it is particularly adapted to givingsolidity 

 to slopes in cuts and on embankments, working equally well on level or un- 

 even surface, cutting both ways with the land, and leaving no sod uncut, 

 being light of draft, easily managed, strong, neat and durable. It is thebest 

 and cleanest sod-cutting machine in America. Has a Reversible Knife 

 made of one piece of steel. While one side dulls, tlieoppositeedgeisgetting 

 sharpened ; cannotget choked. AnAdjustableRollerregulatesthetliickness 

 of the sod from one-half inch to two inches; the front roller swings back 

 Tinder the guide-shoeand takestheweight whenthe machiueis not cutting. 

 Theguide-shoecanbechangedto eithersideinaminute; no friction or injury 

 to the grass. The knife can be cleaned without turning over the machine. 



One machine will cut from 30. 000 to 4 0,000 square feet per day, thus doing 

 the work of forty men ; the expense saved between cutting by hand and with 

 horse power in one day to pay the price of our machine. Instructions for 

 operating furnished with every machine. Price, $25. OO. 



The Apollo Rotary Lawn Sweeper. 



A thoroughly satisfactory machine for sweeping the lawn after mowing. 

 It gathers up and tlirowsinto thelurgeeollecting box all cut grass, leaves. 

 small stones. sticks, etc.; nothingescapes. When the box is full it isquickly 

 dumped by pulling a cord. It works something like a carpet sweeper. 

 having revolving flexible fibre brushes. It can be set low or high, as desired. 

 It is simple, strong, and easily pushed by a man or boy, leaving the lawn 

 in beautiful condition, clean, bright and green. While essentially a lawn 

 sweeper, yet it is equally valuable for sweeping walks, stables, warehouses, 

 etc., for which rubber-tired wheels can be supplied at an extra cost. 

 Prices, 20-in. sweep, $10.00; 28-in. sweep, $12,00.

 SWEEPER. 



A revolving brush in 

 front sweeps the sod 

 clean and throws the 

 sweepings backward 

 into a large box in the 

 rear. This box can be 

 dumped without stop- 

 ping. Sweeps 40 inches 

 wide. 



The sweeper gives you 

 a perfect lawn as soon 

 as the sweeping is fin- 

 ished instead of look- 

 ing gray for several 

 days owing to the with- 

 ered cut grass. 



If the sweeper and 

 lawn mower are run in 

 opposite directions, the 

 lawn will be the same 

 shade of color all over. 

 Price, $67.00.
