The jilan of construction has the following advantages : the machine cut as well when turniuL,' a short corner as when pushed straii^ht forward. The tendency of the gearing is to lift tiie lower knife, (thus causing it to pass lightly over uneven groiuid,) instead of pressing it down. The machine being single geared, tlw friction and niunber of j)arts is reduced one half. The cut grass is thrown beliiml tlu: cutters, instead of forwar<l to be cut over and over again. The machine is as portable as a hand truck. So few jiarts being used, they are each very str<iiig, and are thus not lialile t lireak or get oiit'of order, and render tiio machine very Fio. 107.âThe Piiiladelfhi.'V Lawn Mowhr N c -foL in This machine is equal in every respect to the No. 1.
