Bloomfield, N. J. 
Drawn by one horse and operated by one man, the 
TRIPLEX MOWER will mow more lawn in a day 
than the best motor mower ever made, cut it better 
and at a fraction of the cost. Drawn by one horse 
and operated by one man, it will mow more lawn in 
a day than any three ordinary horsedrawn mowers 
with three horses and three men. One mower may 
be climbing a knoll, the second skimming a level and 
the third paring a hollow. Does not smash the grass 
to earth and plaster it in the mud in springtime nor 
crush out its life between hot rollers and hard hot 
ground in summer as does the motor mower. 
The Public is Warned not to purchase mowers infringing the Townsend Patent No. 1,209,519, Dec. 19, 1916.
