TOWNSEND’S TRIPLEX 
The Greatest Grass Cutter on Earth Cuts a Swath 86 Inches Wide 
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 horse-drawn mowers with three horses 
and three men. (We guarantee this.) 
Floats over the uneven ground as a ship rides 
the waves. One mower may be climbing a knoll, 
a second skimming the level, and a third paring a 
hollow. 
Does not mash 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 sum¬ 
mer, as does the motor mower.
