A New York business man, who owns a country home and 

 who has used the Jersey Hedge Trimmer, writes : 



"Certainly an innovation over the clumsy hedge shears in use 

 for the past hundred years or more. With the Jersey Trimmer a 

 man and boy can accomplish in one day more than ten men work- 

 ing with shears in the old way, do it perfectly and without fatigue ; 

 it is really a pleasure instead of muscle aching tedious labor — in 

 fact women and children who enjoy garden work, will find the 

 Jersey Trimmer an interesting and pleasant exercise, requiring no 

 tiresome effort in morning the hedge, or shaping ornamental foliage to 

 perfect form and evenness. It is compact and light, can be used 

 with one or both hands, cuts right or left, going and coming ; the 

 two handles permit the shifting of it from one hand to the other. 

 There is no lost motion, simply moving the Trimmer in any direc- 

 tion, up or down the sides, or across the hedge top, the swiftly run- 

 ning cutting blades shear off the uneven growth like magic. The 

 power mechanism is easily operated with a crank, the light flexible 

 shaft permits the Trimmer being held in any required position, 

 fourteen feet of hedge being trimmed without moving the power 

 stand ; it is then tipped forward on the two wheels, and rolls along 

 as easily as a small sized lawn mower. 



"A perfectly kept hedge adds greatly to the beauty and value 

 of any home, affords privacy and seclusion, and shuts out offend- 

 ing views. Its perfect condition is secured only by frequent cutting. 

 The novelty and ease of operation and quick results obtained with 

 the Jersey Trimmer insures its being promptl'^ mowed when required, 

 and its appearance a constant source of pleasure and attractive- 

 ness."
