A Better Lawn 
- — At Less Expense 
T HE Fuller & Johnson Motor Lawn 
Mower is designed for the large lawn 
with numerous flower beds, shrubs and 
trees, where great flexibility as well as large cutting 
capacity is required. 
This wonderful mower is large enough to cut five acres 
a day yet light enough not to mar the turf, and so ex- 
tremely flexible that it will cut close up to and around 
trees, under shrubbery and along walks and driveways 
thus entirely eliminating the necessity for cleaning up 
afterwards with a hand mower. The 
Fuller & Johnson 
MOTOR LAWN MOWER 
is backed up by 70 years’ reputation of the Fuller & 
Johnson Mfg. Co. for the highest manufacturing integ- 
rity. It is scientifically designed and built as a com- 
plete unit. Indeed its balance and the details of the 
mechanical features of the mower have received as 
close consideration as has the motor itself. If it were 
possible to dismember this wonderful Motor Lawn 
Mower before you, you would marvel at the extraordin- 
ary thought and study given to the planning of its small- 
est feature — The infinite care used in the finishing and 
adjusting of its smallest part — yet its greatest charac- 
teristic is simplicity.

My home is my pleasure. Perhaps it didn’t cost as much as some houses to 
build. But what fun I‘ve had planning it! And, of course, the grounds have 
been my greatest source of joy. 
Moons’ helped me. First, by sending their catalogue. It suggested just the right 
species based on the rough plan I made. And such fine, healthy specimens of 
evergreens; not expensive, either, especially when you consider their size 
and growth. 
But, my secret. I was made a flattering offer to sell. I find the house isn’t worth 
any more, but the grounds are. So, really, my pleasure has been making me 
money. Moons’ have helped me. If I were you. I’d write Moons’ for Catalogue 
No. A-3.They have a Hardy Tree or Plant for every place and purpose.
