“Boss” Cast If on Garden 
and Lawn Rollers. 
The benefit derived from the use of a Roller on 
the lawn, especially in the spring, is not fully under¬ 
stood. The action of freezing and thawing causes the 
ground to heave, and if the sod is not firmly pressed 
back with a Roller before the hot weather begins, the 
grass is apt to be killed or injured, leaving the lawn 
full of bare spots. 
The “Boss” Roller is a strictly high grade Roller 
at a moderate cost. This Roller is turned perfectly 
smooth on the outer surface, has bevelled edges, turned 
steel axles and is in fact far superior to any other we 
have seen.

The acknowledged superiority of these machines over all others has 
already placed them in the front rank of labor-saving agricultural implements. 
A saving of four-fifths of the labor and one-third of the seed is effected by 
their use, and a person entirely unused to sowing by hand can use this 
machine with perfect success. 
THEY ARE WARRANTED TO GIVE PERFECT SATISFACTION 
And to save their cost in less time than any other 
farm implement yet introduced. They are substantially 
built, and with ordinary care will last many years.

English Water Ballast Rollers. 
For keeping golf greens, lawns and tennis courts in perfect order these Rollers 
are invaluable, and have been adopted by the English clubs in preference to all others. 
When the ground is soft they may be used empty and in dry weather, when all others 
are useless, they can be filled with water and worhtd effectually. 
The advantage of having in one Roller either a heavy or light implement at 
pleasure must be obvious to every one.

Horse Lawn Boots. 
For Lawn or Golf work, Horse Boots are 
Indispensable for use in connection with mower 
or roller. They prevent the horse sinking in 
damp or soft places and do not cut or tear up 
the turf. The following patterns are the ones 
in general use; each having been adopted for 
some particular merit of its own.
