Nearly all machines used in mowing lawns are much heavier than is necessary, and more labor is expended in moving them, on account of their weight, than should be. To overcome this objection, the above Ma- chines have been introduced, and we can say that they have fully met our expectations—being quite equal in strength and durability and in practical usefulness to any Lawn Mowers in the market. We think all who use them will pronounce them as we do— PERFECT LAWN MOWERS. The 14-inch Machine weighs 37 lbs. The drive wheels are 6i inches in diameter, the gearing is effectually concealed; the knives are made of the best cast steel, and the Machine is so compact and sti'ong that it is almost impossible to derange the parts by any reasonably amount of abuse. It is intended for small lawns, from ^ to i acre, and can be easily worked by a boy of fourteen. Price, $20. The 16-inch Machine weighs 41 lbs., and is intended for lawns from i to i acre.^ $24. The 18-inch Machine weighs 46 lbs., and is intended for lawns from i to I acres. $26. The 20-inch Machine weighs 50 lbs., easily worked by one man in grass not over four inches high, and is intended for lawns from | to 1 acre. $28. In other respects the above three Machines are the same as the 14-inch. We warrant the above in grass not over five inches high to run easier than any other make, cutting the same width. Each Machine is boxed ready for shipment, with directions for operating. The following sizes are made in addition to the above: Width of cut. Weight. Price. 10 inch 28 lbs.
