“Bowed by the weight of centuries 
he leans upon his hoe and gazes on 
the ground, the emptiness of ages 
on his face, and on his back the 
burden of the world.” 
From Markham’s “The Man With the Hoe.” 
F OR untold ages, mankind 
tilled the soil by brute 
strength—his own or that of do¬ 
mesticated animals. It remained 
for the youngest nation—America—to break away from the 
hoe and put it on wheels; to perfect the plow, the reaper and 
binder. And yet again America triumphs, for from employ¬ 
ing brute strength it has risen to use intelligence, making the 
mind the means to guide. 
The BOLENS Power Hoe and 
Lawn Mower Tractor 
The hoe does the work, your head 
and hands do the guiding. The 
Bolens does a great variety of work 
—seeding, cultivating, lawn mowing 
—and does it so easily and quickly as 
to save the operator’s strength for 
more important mental tasks. 
You owe it to your next garden to do 
a little investigating. Write for de¬ 
scriptive booklet giving all the facts 
about the Bolens Power Hoe. A post¬ 
card will do—and write right now, 
mentioning Garden Magazine.
