THE KING OF LAWN MOWERS 



rHE HENDERSON BALL-BEARING LAWN MOWER is made without regard to cost— to 

 be the best, most durable, and the easiest-working Mower on the market, and while the prices 

 are necessarily a little higher than those of Mowers simply made to sell, yet in the end our 

 Mower will prove much cheaper, aside from annoying delays and repairs experienced with cheap 

 Mowers. It is superior to all other Mowers in the following respects: the axles of the revolving 

 cutter, like the axles of a bicycle, work in self-adjusting " ball-bearing " journal boxes or cups, which 

 reduces the friction enormously. The Mower is also built scientifically correct in other respects. 

 The " tension draw-cut " principle corrects the defect in " push cut " Lawn Mowers and completely 

 reverses the old way of cutting the grass. The grass is drawn across the sharp edge of the Station* 

 ary Knife, which is the cutting knife, and is severed most easily. 



It causes the mower to operate much more easily. It prevents the mower from "bobbing up" 

 in the rear thus ensuring an even cut. The heavier the grass, the closer the mower clings to the turf. 

 It makes the mower self sharpening; the drawing of the wiper blades across the edge of the station- 

 ary knife keeps it always sharp and prevents gouging. Where the " push cut " style of mower re- 

 quires " sharpening " a dozen times, the Henderson Bali-Bearing "tension draw-cut" mower will not 

 need it once. It is strictly a high class Mower, made from the highest quality of iron and steeL 

 The castings are lathe-turned and bored, and the journals machine-trimmed, which insures trueness 

 m fitting and smoothness in working, with no irregularities to wear oflE and leave rattle and play. 

 We have so simplified the adjustments in our new Bali-Bearing Mower 

 that even those ignorant of mechanics will have no trouble in always 

 keeping our Mower in fine cutting order for years and the lawn in 

 splendid condition. 



THE HENDERSON BALL-BEARING MOWER has high drive 

 wheels, large, open five-blade, non-clogging cylinder. The spiral of the 

 knives is correctly proportioned to give a continuous cut, leaving the 

 lawn as smooth as if shaved, entirely free from the corrugated surface 

 left by other Mowers. The handles are braced and reinforced to pre- 

 vent twisting and breaking when one side of the Mower is held off the 

 ground, and besides the handle is equipped with improved " grips," 

 wnich keeps the hands in a natural position, gives more power, and is 

 less tiresome than a continued grasp, with wrists twisted, on a hori- 

 zontal grip.

CUSTOMERS REPORTS ABOUT THE HENDERSON BALL-BEARING LAWN MOWER. 



" / had one of the Henderson Bail-Bearing mowers some years ago and will 

 not be without one again while 1 have a lawn. 1 have used several different kinds 

 of mowers, but have never seen one that compares with yours. Usually it is a 

 dreaded job to mow a lawn, but with the ball-bearing, it works so perfectly and so 

 easily, it is a pleasure to mow with it." H. THOMPSON , Pratt, Kansas. 



" Ship at once one Henderson Bali-Bearing Lawn Mower 21-inch cut, to County 

 Commissioner of Wyoming County, Pa.. Tunkhannock, Pa. I bought one of the 



-above mowers about ten years ago for the Commissioners and it has been used every 

 season since without any repairs and we have a large lawn. It has given good 



.satisfaction." CHAS. H. YOUNG, Tunkhannock, Pa. 



" Just a line to advise you the ISth " Henderson " Lawn Mower received from 

 you a few days ago is superior to anything I have ever seen or used and 1 am 



.more than pleased with same.' 



FRED WILDEY. Livingston, N. Y. 



"We have several makes of mowers, but none cut the lawn as well as the Hender- 

 son Bail-Bearing." FRANK H. VILLE, Freemansburg, Pa. 



" Some years ago we purchased of you a " Henderson " Lawn Mower. We 

 have used it constantly on rough, sandy ground. It has done all its work well. 

 I do not believe atiy other mower would stand the treatment this one gets. Our 

 neighbor has used three mowers in the same length of time." 



R. M. MUNROE, Cocoanut Grove, Fla. 



" As far as my experience goes the Henderson Self- Adjusting Ball-Bearing 

 Lawn Mower is the most nearly perfect Lawn Mower ever made. Ten years ago 

 I purchased the "Henderson" mower having a 24:-inch cut. It was used constantly 

 for 4 years on our pork and 6 years on my home grounds. It still does good 

 work and to all appearances is good for another decade of service. 



DR. JOHN V. N. STANDISH, President Pari Commission, Galesburg, III.
