THE BEST-^^ 



"THE LOVETT" SELF-SHARPENING LAWN MOWER. 



The only practical Self-sharpening Lawn Mower upon the Market. 

 In no class of manufactures has business depression been more evident than in horticultural 

 competition among La^ n Mowers has been particularly keen, resulting 

 in many cases in great deterioration in quality and workmanship. 

 In the LovETT Self-sharpexing Lawn Mower, we claim and 

 g-uai antee the highest standard in every detail of consti'uctiou and 

 material. In simplicity of model and lightness of di'aught it has no 

 equal. A most important and original featm-e is the concave form 

 of the stationary knife, imitating in self-sharpening character the 

 peculiar construction of a rodent's tooth, and by means of the adjust- 

 ment the edges of the revolving blades and bottom knife are brought 

 in contact in such a manner as to invariably keep the machine in 

 excellent condition. The adjustments are extremely simple. The 

 durability of The Lovett Mower and the ease and certainty with 

 which it performs its appointed work are without precedent, and the 

 low price at which we place it before the public renders the purchase 

 of inferior Lawn Mowers needless. 



We guarantee every machine, and a single trial will demonstrate 

 that "The Lovett" is in every particular a superior Lawn Mower. 



Every mower is put together, adjusted, oiled, and tested by 

 actual service.
