PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— LAWN ESSENTIALS. 



LAWN SPRINKLERS. 



A good lawn sprinkler is a necessary adjunct to all well kept lawns and grass plots ; the water is distributed 

 so finely and evenly and by leaving a sprinkler in one position long enough the grass can be thoroughly saturated, 

 thereby insuring a luxuriant fresh green sward during the hottest summer drought. All of the sprinklers that we 

 catalogue work satisfactorily with a water pressure of 25 lbs.; excepting the Henderson 8 Arm Lawn Sprinkler. 

 which should have a pressure of not less than 40 lbs. 



We are frequently asked if a tank or pond of water at a certain elevation will work a lawn sprinkler, the follow- 

 ing rule is applicable to all suck cases, viz. : Water at every foot of elevation gives half a pound pressure — the force to 

 work a sprinkler requiring 30 lbs. pressure— the tank or body of water would have to be elevated 4.0 feet, etc. 



Common Sense 



^^Lawn Sprinkler. 



COMMON SENSE LAWN SPRINKLER. 



There are no moving parts to get out of order, no 

 arms to get bent, stopped up, etc. , as the parts being 

 rigid there is little loss of pressure. The SPRINK- 

 LER may be cleaned in a moment, should it be- 

 come 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 fountain, but by falling upon 

 the umbrella spray, dash the water over all parts 

 of the circle which is unusually large. 



While the water effect is very large, the spray is 

 so fine that but 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 40 feet in diameter. Price, $1.50 each. 



The "Wto Witcg" Lawn gprin^to. 



( With or without stand.) 



An effective device for sprinkling Lawns, Gardens or Flower 

 Beds. The water flows with unimpeded force, and is divided and 

 deflected by the two lips of the swivel piece which it causes to re- 

 volve rapidly, scattering the water in fine drops and evenly over a 

 circular area of twenty-five to forty feet diameter. The " "Water 

 Witch " works under a very low pressure, better than any other 

 sprinkler we know of. Price without stand (*. e., with spur 

 to stick in groz<nd,) 75c. each; by mail, 85c. each. 



Price with stand {See cut,) $1.25 each. 



WATER WITCH ' LAWN SPRINKLER. 



THE "COMET" LAWN SPRINKLER. 



The " Comet " Lawn Sprinkler. 



"Will Sprinkle an Area FOUR TIMES Greater Than 

 Any Other Sprinkler. 



By means of the swiftly revolving arms, and intermediate 



I gears, the upper part of the body is made to revolve slowly around, 



J carrying the hose nozzle, from which a large stream of water is 



ggj; thrown far out beyond that thrown by the arms, thereby covering 



jj] four times the space of any other stationary sprinkler. 



With an ordinary force of water it will thoroughly sprinkle a 

 space 80 feet in diameter. The hose nozzle, and tips on end of 

 arms, are adjustable so that it can be adapted to as small a space 

 as desired. Made of solid brass and excepting the legs, nicely 

 nickeled. A most substantial and durable as well as most 

 attractive and useful sprink'er. Price, $5.00.
