CMOOTH and velvety as a parlor rug is the way you 
O want your lawns—they can so easily mar or enhance 
the beauty of an artistic home. To keep them beautiful 
with a “4-Acre” Power Lawn Mower is a pleasurable 
task—it’s so easily and quickly done. 
Beautiful Lawns With Less Labor 
The “4-Acre” cuts a clean swath 24 inches wide at the 
rate of four or five acres a day on less than 40 cents 
worth of fuel and oil. One man does the work of four 
or five men with hand mowers; economical on a half acre 
or forty. It leaves more time for watering and otherwise 
beautifying the premises.
