A Compact, Simple, @ and Economical, Power Lawn Mower 
If a Lawn is too large to be mown profitably with a hand 
mower—or is dotted with trees—also if it contains many sharp 
\ Consumes only about 
angles or tight corners—then it simply needs a MOTO-MOWER Parts for 
to do the work. one gallon of these ma- 
This mower is said by the manufacturers to be the most compact a chines are 
and most easily operated Power Lawn Mower made. Hundreds of gasoline 3 
_ them are satisfactorily operating now on the estates of private individu- per day. obtainable 
als, on the grounds of public institutions, parks, and the like. A list of on short 
_ users will be gladly furnished to any one who desires this information. 
The Moto-Mower is light in weight and sturdy in construction. The engine 
_ isstrong, durable, and of simple design. Itis the 4 cycle valve in head type and 
_ develops 2%4 horse-power. The crank and cam shafts are made of chrome nickle 
steel, accurately machined; and bearing parts are finely ground. ‘The carburetor 
and magneto are specially designed to develop maximum power. 
The mower frames are constructed of malleable iron, the frame rods are rolled steel. 
The cutting cylinder is built of extra heavy and wide blades, oil hardened and tempered; 
and runs on Timpken Roller Bearings The pressed steel traction wheels have individual 
clutches that are operated from the handle bars. These clutches are the dry plate type, such as 
are now used on the majority of automobiles. A satety clutch guards the machine from injury, 
should a stone or other obstruction become caught in the cutting reel. The lubrication of the 
- Moto-Mower requires little attention; a splash circulating system takes care of all of the vital motor 
a _ parts contained in the crank case and the clutches and wheel bearings are lubricated by oil cups. 
: The performance of the Moto-Mower is all that can be desired. It cuts a swath (21 or 27 inches 
- wide, see below) and can be raised or lowered from 34 to 334 inches. It will cut 4 to 5 acres of 
_ lawn a day and climb a 35 per cent grade on a gasoline consumption of only about one gallon per 
day. It therefore combines efficiency of operation with economy of cost and labor. 
We offer the following two sizes: 21 inch cut complete, $185.00; 27 inch cut complete, $285.00. 
_ The New Improved Henderson Horse Lawn Mower 
Por large lawns, golf courses, cemeteries, parks, etc. The latest and best. Knives can beraised orloweredinstantly. Itis simplein construction and 
very durable, the best steel and iron being used in its manufacture, and it is finished in the most perfect manner. A lever beside the driver enables him to 
_ cut grass any height from the ground and to easily and quickly raise the blades over stones or other obstructions without stopping the horse or leaving his 
_ seat. A slight movement of a small lever throws the mower in or out of gear without stopping. The side draft rod is attached to left side of mower keeping 
i the horse on the cut grass and preventing the trampling down of grass, whichis to be cut. The revolving knives, five in number, are “high speeded,” making 
_ acontinuous cut and leaving the surface of the lawn assmoothas velvet. The rollers, three in number, 15in.in diameter, with triple pawls in each roll make 
_ the most powerful and instantaneous drawing mechanism ever putinalawn mower. This feature maintains motion of blades even when turning sharp cor- 
 ners,a great advantage over - 
_ double roll mowers whose 
knives have no motion 
when turning corners. 
_ These mowers will weigh, 
including shafts and driver, 
600 to 700 pounds, thereby 
_ tolling the lawn at the 
same time it is cutting; or 
the cutter may be thrown 
out of gear and the ma- 
chine used for rolling 
alone.

y, 7% Henderson’s “Champion” Sod Cutter 
/ A horse-power machine for cutting sod in long strips; an important and valuable implement for 
y golf grounds, parks and other places which have much sod-laying or repairing to do. It cuts the sod 
of uniform width and thickness, in any length, so that it is particularly adapted to give solidity to 
slopes in cuts and on embankments, working equally well on level or uneven surfaces, cutting both ways 
with the land, and leaving no sod uncut, being light of draft, easily managed, strong, neat and durable. 
It is the best and cleanest sod-cutting machine’in America. 
Has a Reversible Knife made of one piece of steel. While one side dulls, the opposite edge is getting sharp- 
ened, cannot get choked. An Adjustable Roller regulates the thickness of the sod from % to 2 inches; the 
front roller swings back under the guide-shoe and takes the weight when the machine is not cutting. The guide- 
shoe can be changed to either side in a minute; no friction orinjury to the grass. The knife can be cleaned with- 
out turning over the machine. Back Roller works automatically by holding up handles and lever, the roller 
swings under the machine and takes weight until ready to cut again; while the middle roller helps take weight 
| of machine and regulates thickness of sod, the front roller takes the weight of the machine while cutting. Price, 
= | $55.00. Extra Knives, $12.00. each. 
We can supply all the standard mowers and other equipment used on Lawns, Golf Courses, and 
Athletic Fields on short notice. Prices on application.
