turers of the Pennsylvania Lawn Mow- 
ers, is the latest improvement of this 
kind on the market. This useful little 
machine, it is said, will get the last 
blade of grass in the most difficult 
places. It is made with a conical cyl- 
inder and bent side plates, which en- 
ables the operator to cut not only up 
to a fence or rail, but actually cut the 
grass several inches under the pickets 
or under the rough projecting edges 
of rock face bases. The cylinder has 
four crucible steel blades and an un- 
derknife of the upturned or raised edge 
type originated by this company. A 
catalog describing the machine may be

replaced by one of concrete. The 
grade of the road has been improve.d, 
and wherever filling has been neces- 
sary it has been resurfaced. 
Work on the new Baltimore and 
Ohio Railroad bridge and approach 
has been going on during the year, 
and has kept that part of the park 
in a torn-up condition. The first plan 
of the railroad company called for 
an overhead crossing of Eighteenth 
Street at the park boundarjx After 
considerable negotiation the plans 
were changed and an undergrade 
crossing adopted. This gives easy 
grades from Franklin Street to the 
railway, does away with the unsight- 
ly embankment, and provides a good 
connection with Snuff Mill Lane and 
the roadway to be constructed across 
the old railroad bridge. It also makes 
a good start toward the driveway to 
Alapocas Woo.ds.
