The Henderson 



BaII=Bearing 

 Ideal=Model 



Lawn Mower. 



THE BEST AND LIGHTEST^ WORKING MOWER MADE. 



A 21-iiicb cut pushes as easily as an ordinary 

 Mower of only 16Mnch cut. 



Cuts high grass with greatest ease. 

 Leaves the lawn as smooth as veWet and free from comgattoos. 



THE HENDEESON BALL-BEAEING LAWNMOWEB 



fa 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 ex- 

 perienced 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 "baU-'beanng'* 

 journal boxes or cups, which reduces the friction enormously. 

 It is also built scientifically correct in other respects, re- 

 sulting in a phenomenally light running Mower. A. 21-inch 

 cuts the grass as easily as a IG-inch old-style Mower. It is 

 strictly a high-class Mower, made the best we know how — 

 from the highest quality of iron and steel. The castings 

 are lathe-turned and bored, and the journals machine- 

 trimmed, which insures trueness in fitting and smoothness 

 in working, with no irregularities to wear off and leave rattle 

 and play. The knives, of the finest steel and temper, are 

 sharp and cut like razors, and will keep so if the under knife 

 is kept tightened up to the revoh^ing knives; for then the 

 blades wear to the same bevel, and, in consequence, are 

 self-sharpening. We have so simpliaed the adjustments in 

 our new Ball-bearing Mower that even those ignorant of 

 mechanics wiU have no trouble in always keeping our Mower 

 in fine cutting order for years and the lawn in iminjured 

 condition. 



TirZ KCNDEESCN EALL-BEAEING MOWEE has 

 high drive wheels, larce, open, non-clogging cylinder placed 

 far enough back to prevent any "kicking up" of the Mower 

 when it strikes hea\-y grass. 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 corru- 

 gated surface left by other Mowers. The handles are braced 

 and reinforced to prevent twisting and breakiag when one 

 side of the Mower is held off the ground, and besides the 

 handle is equipped with improved "grips," which keeps tie 

 handles in a natural position, gives more power, and is less 

 tiresome than a continued grasp, with wrists twisted, on a 

 horizontal grip. 



Grass Catchers for the Henderson B. B. Mowers. 

 These Catchers are of superior heavy duck, with iron bottom; 

 are quickly attached, removed or dumped.

 you shipped me. The ease with which it runs

 have had several machines prior to this one, but 

 none could compare with the Henderson."

 and the knivea never clog up."
