HENDERSON’S 
4-Arm Lawn Sprinkler 
(with Ball and Basket 
attachment. ) 
AWNS need an abundance of water 
to enable their rich Inxuriance to 
be maintained during hot dry 
weather. If the soil was originally 
prepared very deep, to induce deep 
root action, the necessity for artificial wa- 
tering is less pronounced, but lawns intelli- 
gently laid down in this manner are in the 
minority in this country. It is therefore 
advisable on lawns with the average thin 
turf to water or ‘‘sprinkle” frequently. In 
such cases, a good lawn sprinkler is a nec- 
essary adjunct, being far superior to a hose 
nozzle—the latter usually throws too strong 
astream, eventually washing the earth from 
the grass roots leaving them exposed to the 
injurious effects of the hot sun thus causing 
the grasstoburnup. Withalawnsprinkler 
the same flow of water is broken up and 
uniformly distributed over a large area in 
the form of fine gentle rain, thoroughly sat- 
urating the ground covered without any in- 
jurious washing. 
The ‘‘Water Witch’’ sprinklers work 
under a very low pressure better than any 
other sprinklers we know of. Allsprinklers 
are fitted to attach to the regulation ?-inch 
bore garden hose. 
We are frequently asked if a tank or 
pond of water at a certain elevation will 
work a lawn sprinkler. The following 
rule is applicable to all such cases, viz.: 
Water at every foot of elevation gives half 
a pound pressure. The force to work a 
sprinkler requiring 20 lbs. pressure, the 
tank or body of water would have to be 
elevated apes ete. 
THE NEW CENTURY LAWN SPRINKLER 
Is very efficient and satisfactory. 
Will cover with a beautiful revolving spray, any area desired from three feet to fifty feet 
in diameter, and with an equal distribution of water. 
Is mounted, with wheels, on a wide base, and may be drawn about from place to place 
without turning off the pressure and without danger of upsetting. 
It is made with a bearing that prevents clogging and thut allows it to operate under any 
water pressure. 
‘All back pressure on the hose is relieved, thus saving wear and tear. 
Durably made and handsomely finished. Body enameled black, wheels red, with head and 
arms of polished brass. Price, $1.50 each. 
COMMON SENSE LAWN SPRINKLER. 
There are no moving parts to get out of order, no arms to get bent, stopped up, etc. 
The Sprinkler may be cleaned in a moment, should it become choked: by simply loosening 
the nut, the force of water will drive out any dirt that has accumulated. 
In use the most beautiful water effect is produced, there being a large umbrella spray, 
very fine, as well as jets nearly upright; these jets not only add to the beauty of the foun- 
tain, but by falling upon the umbrella spray break it up more and dash the water over all 
parts of the large circle. The parts all being rigid, there is little loss of pressure. 
While the area covered is very large, yet the spray is so fine that comparatively little 
water is used; not only this, but the spray being very fine, the sunshine produces most 
beautiful rainbow effects. 
_ The diameter of the circle will vary with the pressure; good to heavy pressure will wet a 
circle 20 to 30 feetin diameter. Price, $1.25 each.

gears the upper part of the 
body is made torevolve slowly 
around, carrying the hose 
nozzle, from which a large 2 
stream of water is thrown far 7 
out beyondthatthrown by the 
arms, thereby covering four 7 
times the space of any other 
stationary sprinkler. Withan 
ordinary force of water it will 
thoroughly sprinkle a space of 
80 feetin diameter. The hose 
nozzle and tipson endsof arms 
are adjustable, so that it can 
be adapted to as small aspace 
as desired. Excepting the legs, 
it is made of solid brass and 
nicely nickeled. Mostsubstan- 
tial and durable as well as the 
most attractive and useful 
sprinkler ever made. Price, 
35.00.
