A Few of the Many LETTERS OF PRAISE For 
The Henderson “ BalFBearing ” Lawn Mower. 
•'/ am In raptures orer my new Ball-bearing Mower—It Is a labor-saving 
machine and a good thing for tired humanity.” 
Itev. C. A. KNESAL, Northport, L. I. 
"The 34-inch Ball-bearing Lawn Mower ordered from rou is the finest 
machine of the kind I ha re ever seen. 1 keep it for my own use'nml pleasure and 
think as much of it as 1 do of my watch." 
WM. F. GRAY, Homewood, Fa. 
•• We like Henderson's Ball-bearing'Mowers very much and shall replace all 
of our old styles with them as fast as possible." 
dOHy F. COLDWELTj, Director, 
Buffalo Botanic Gardens. West Seneca, S’. Y. 
"I testeil the B. II. Lawn Mower you sent me to-day in English lire grass 10 
Inches tall. In big bunches and heavy. It had not been cut in 0 months 1 had no 
idea that l could cut it at all, but the B. 11. just went right through it without a 
stop, and cut It as smooth as a floor. 1 ha re used all kinds of lawn mowers for 
years, but the Henderson Ball-bearing is a prize beyond price." 
JOSEPH P. PONES, Custodian Capitol Grounds, 
Salem, Oregon. 
THE LIGHTEST WORKING MOWER MADE. 
A 24-inch cut pushes as easily as an ordin ary 
Mower of only 16-inch cu t. J. j. j, 
A lawn may now be mown in one-half the time 
lequired with old style narro w-cut Mowers. 
Tile Henderson Ball-Bearing- lawn Mower 1b superior to all other 
Mowers in the following respects: The axles of the revolving cutter, like the 
axles of a bicycle, work In “ball-bearing” journal boxes or cups, which re¬ 
duces the friction enormously. These parts are made of the finest case-hardened 
steel, and will last for years, though we have provided against wear should there 
lie any—so that any one, by simply loosening one screw and tightening another, 
can force the cup and bulls higher up the cone-shaped ends of therevolvlngshaft, 
thereby taking up all possible wear. This adjustment is so simple, yet positive, 
that it can be set to a hair. Our Mower Is also built scientifically correct In' 
other respects, resulting in a phenomenally light running Mower. A 24-Inch 
cuts the grass as easily as a 16-inch old style Mower. 
A Wide-cut Mower, In addition to doing the work a great deal quicker 
lasts much longer than a narrow-cut Mower, for there is less wear; In other 
words, if it requires 100 times around with a 12-inch Mower to cut a lawn it 
will only take fifty times around to cut It with a 24-inch Mower 
The “Henderson Ball-bearing" Is strictly a high-class Mower; we have not 
endeavored to make it “cheap.” but tile beat we know how — from the highest 
quality of iron and steel, which has enabled us to very materially reduce the 
weight. The castings are lathe-turned and bored, and the journals machine- 
trimmed, which insures trueness in fitting and smoothness in working, with no 
Irregularities to wear off and leave rattle and play. The knives, of the finest 
steel and temper, are sharp and cut like razors, and will keep so If the under 
knife is kept tightened up to the revolving knives; for then the blades wear 
to the same bevel, and. In consequence, are self-sharpening. We have so sim¬ 
plified the adjustments in our new Ball-bearing Mower that even those ignorant 
of mechanics will have no trouble in always keeping our Mower in flue cutting 
order, and the lawn in uninjured condition. 6 
The Henderson Ball-bearing Mower has high drive wheels, both of 
which are connected by “train gears” to the large, open, non-clogging cylin¬ 
der placed far enough back to prevent any “kicking up" of the Mower when 
it strikes heavy grass. The spiral of tiie knives is correctly proportioned to 
give a continuous cut, leaving the lawn as smooth as if shaved entirely free 
from the corrugated surface left by other Mowers. The handles are braced 
and reinforced to prevent twisting and breaking when one side »f the Mower 
is held off tiie ground, and besides the handle is equipped with improved 
“grips," which keeps the hands in a natural position, gives more power and 
is less tiresome than a continued grasp, with wrists twisted, on a horizontal grip 
We wish to reiterate that our “Henderson Ball-bearing” Mower is made 
without regard to cost—to be the best, most durable, and the easiest work¬ 
ing Mower on the market, and while the prices are necessarily a little higher 
than those of Mowers simply made to sell, yet in the end our Mower will 
prove much cheaper, aside from aunoying delays and repairs experienced 
with chenp Mo worn.
