The New Improved Henderson Horse Lawn Mower 
We consider this to be the best horse power Lawn Mower on the market. It is simple in construction and very durable, the 
best steel and iron being used in its manufacture, and it is finished in the most perfect manner. 
A lever beside the driver enables him to cut grass any height, high or low from the ground and to easily and quickly raise the 
blades over stones or other obstruction without stopping the horse or leaving his seat. A slight movement of a small lever tnrows 
the mower in or out of gear without stopping. The side draft rod is attached to the left side of the mower keeoing the horse 
on the cut grass, and preventing the trampling down of the grass which is to be cut. The revolving knives, five in number are 
high speeded, making a continuous cut and leaving the surface of tne lawn as smooth as velvet. The rollers, three in number 
lo inches in diameter, with triple pawls in each roll make the most powerful and instantaneous drawing mechanism ever put 
m a lawn mower. I his feature maintains the motion of the blades even when turning sharp corners, a great advantage over 
other double roll mowers whose knives have no motion when turning corners. The self-aligning journal boxes are a very valu¬ 
able improvement and prevent cramping of the journals, a very common and dangerous fault m many horse mowers The 
toot rest is spacious and prevents cramping of limbs and accidents through the feet slipping into the revolving cutters. 
These mowers will weigh, including shafts and driver, 600 to 700 pounds, thereby rolling the lawn at the same time it is cutting- 
or the cutter may be thrown out of gear, and the machine used for rolling alone.

Townsend’s “Triplex” Horse Lawn Mower 
For large lawns, parks, golf courses, etc., it is a boon, cutting a swath over seven 
feet (86 inches) wide; doing the work of two motor mowers at an eighth of the 
expense. The series of three mowers adapt themselves to uneven surface, 
mowing over ridges and through hollows as well as level ground. Simple 
durable and light running. Easily drawn by one horse — all day long—and 
operated by any man capable of driving. 
With the Triplex Mower one man and one horse will cut more grass in a day than 
three men and three horses with three ordinary lawn mowers, and will cut as much 
grass as any two motor mowers, cut it better—without crushing the life out of soft 
turf — and at a small fraction of the cost. 
The Triplex consists of three lawn mowers yoked together avo aoreast, and one follow¬ 
ing in the center, lapping each front mower, thus cutting a clear swath eighty-six inches 
wide. As the three mowers work independently of each other, and are so connected 
from their centers to the main frame that they can swivel, rise and fall - they therefore 
adapt themselves to the contour of the ground — floating over ridges and down hollows 
—mowing the grass as perfectly as on the level, and better than is possible with a long 
straight-edged bottom knife mower of any kind. 
On rolling ground the Triplex Mower shows its qualities to perfection, holding to a 
side hill where a motor mower will slide sidewise. It is of extremely light draught, 
due partly to ball bearings and partly to the excellence of design, material and work¬ 
manship. 
Three levers at the driver’s right enable him to lift any one or all of the cutting 
apparatus from the ground to avoid obstructions, or in going to and from the field. 
A small knob in the center of each wheel operates the clutch throwing the machines 
in and out of gear. 
The mower is provided with a spring seat, ample foot rest, shafts, iron tool box with 
tools and oil can. Net weight, 600 lbs. 
The mowers are packed singly in crates, the frame work is shipped assembled. It 
is only the work of ten minutes to assemble the machines and attach the shafts.
