THE HENDERSON 



Cast Iron Water Ballast Roller, 



The advantages of a roller, the weight of which can 

 increased or lightened at pleasure, can scarcely be over 

 estimated. Often on light or sandy soil, or on newly 

 made lawns, or in early spring when the ground is 

 moist or after a rainy spell, a lighter-weight roller is a 

 necessity; then on thick sward or on hard soil, on 

 walks and roads, a heavy roller is needed. With a 

 Henderson Water Ballast Roller one can secure any 

 weight desired, between minimum and maximum, by 

 simply removing a thumbcap from each end and 

 rilling the two hollow sections with as much water or 

 sand as may be needed, which is easily and quickly 

 done with a hose or through a funnel; and the roller 

 is as quickly emptied. The inside being heavily 

 galvanized, it will last for years. 



These are perfect rollers, and do perfect work on 

 lawns, tennis courts, golf grounds, roads, walks, etc. 

 They are high-grade in every respect, being carefully 

 manufactured of best material, and the diameter is large, 

 insuring a lighter draft for a given weight than is usual 



The Henderson Patent Water Ballast Roller for man 

 power. Weighs 300 lbs.; loads up to 600 lbs.; tracks, 

 inches, diameter of drums, 24 inches; counterbalanced handle 

 stands erect when not in use. Price, S45.00. 



SHEET IRON WATER WEIGHT ROLLERS 



■ 



The benefit derived from using a roller on the lawn is ines- 

 timable — and the heavier the roller the better. Freezing and 

 thawing causes the sod-ground to heave, also too liberal 

 watering with force washes soil from the roots of the 

 grass — in either event, if the sod is not pressed down, 

 the grass is apt to be burned out or injured in hot 

 weather, leaving the lawn full of bad spots. A 

 lawn on which a roller is used is never troubled 

 with moles.

Henderson's Superior Iron Hand Rollers 



These are very superior Rollers, the edges are beveled to prevent marking, the faces are ground 

 smooth so they will not pick up and carry lumps of earth, the axles are of steel, the sections fit 

 closely and the handles are of our improved design, will not break and are counterbalanced so they 

 will always keep up from the ground, clean and out of the way. 



From 300 to 500 lbs. is the weight chosen for a one-man power roller for level lawns. Remember 

 that the heavier the roller used on your lawn the finer sward you will have. 



Weight Boxes can be supplied 



on any roller larger than 

 number 3, at an ex- 

 tra price quoted

 tion.

having four j 

 12-inch sec- 

 tions 10 inches 

 in diameter, 

 made of turned 

 rock maple, the 

 ends of each sec- 

 tion being banded 

 with steel to prevent 

 splitting. The entire 

 face surface is very true 

 leaving no ridges or inden- 

 tations on the "green." The 

 width is sufficient to go over the 

 green quickly, keep it level, and 

 the weight, 150 lbs., just right for con- 

 venience in handling by one man and yet 

 effective for rolling. It turns readily without scraping the green. This roller is also very useful for firming 

 the soil when making up vegetable garden beds both before and after seeding. Price, $22.50. 



CAST IRON PUTTING-GREEN ROLLER with Detachable Scraper and Collecting Box 

 This is undoubtedly the most efficient roller on the market for Putting Greens. The cylinder is made of 

 cast iron in four 10-inch sections, making the roller 40 inches wide. It is light in weight, and being in four 

 sections is remarkably easy to handle. A new feature of this roller is that it is fitted with a scraper and 

 collecting box for sticky worm casts — which when filled may be taken off and emptied. Thus the cylinder is 

 being continually cleaned while the roller is being used. A man can traverse the greens with great rapidity 

 with this roller, and can easily keep them in good condition during the soft season. This roller is also very 

 useful for rolling garden beds after seeding. Weight, 190 lbs. Piice, C27.50. 



Henderson's putting-green Roller 



A roller especially made to meet requirements in rolling and 

 keeping in good condition both grass and clay "Putting 

 Greens." It is used and endorsed by the green keepers of 

 some of the best golf courses in the United States. The 

 roller is four 

 feet wide.
