SPEEDING-UP MOWING AND OTHER 
BIG GARDEN OPERATIONS 
Ideal for large sweeps of lawn on private estates, 
parks, and golf courses is the Acme Jr. Mower 
Praetor which cuts a 30-inch swathe, is built for 
endurance (every working part inclosed, dust 
proof, and running in oil) and equipped with a 
heavy, well seasoned wood roller. This tractor is 
also a power cultivator with a wide range of set¬ 
ups suitable for gardening on a large scale, has 
seeder, hoeing or weeding, furrow making and 
other useful attachments, as well as a power 
pulley always ready for portable or stationary 
work. (Acme Cultivator Co.) 
WHEN TRIMMING 
YOUR HEDGE 
Strongly fashioned with 
special notched blades that 
catch and hold the twigs, and 
a wide cutting surface, the 
Simplicity Hedge Trimmer 
and Pruner insures a neat 
job even in the hands of an 
inexperienced amateur. It 
has force enough to shear 
through stems as large as 
half an inch in diameter 
and every motion tells, as 
the blades cut both ways 
with the opening and clos¬ 
ing of handles. (Trenton 
Mfg. Co.) 
WHERE THE CHILDREN GARDEN 
A new tool, well made and especially designed to meet 
the needs of the child, is the Planet Jr. Juvenile 
Garden Cultivator (shown at right), weighing 
only 6 lbs. and with extra attachments if wanted 
of hoe, plow, and wide teeth. (S. L. Allen & Co.) 
SUPPLYING NATURE’S LACK 
A very simple and practical solution of the water¬ 
ing problem is this Mist Spray Lawn Sprinkler 
attachable to the ordinary hose and which may 
be had either in the full circle (as here shown) 
or in a semi-circle especially designed for places 
where city ordinances prohibiting the wetting 
of sidewalks prevail. (Armstrong Mfg. Co.)
