SHANKS PATENT LAWN MOWEKS foe 1868. Letters Patent, dated I2fh August, 1867, have heen granted to A. SHANKS and SON for Important Improvements in Lawn Mowing Machines. UNDER THE PATRONAGE HER MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTYTHE QUEEN, AWARDED THE FIRST PRIZESILVER MEDAL. AND MOST OP THEPRINCIPAL NOBILITY GREAT BRITAIN. PARIS UNIVERSAL EXHIBITION, 1867. NEW HAND MACHINE. ALEXANDER SHANKS and SON have for some time past been making the REVOLVING CUTTER of their MACHINES SELF-SHARPENING, that is, with steel onboth sides of eacli blade, so that when the Cutter becomes blunt by running one way, it can be reversed, thus bringing the opposite or sharp edge of the Cutter to act againstthe Sole Plate. In addition to this, A- S. and SON have made the SOLE PLATE or BOTTOM BLADE of their MACHINE for the Season of 18G8 with TWO EDGES—one in front, as usual, and one in reserve at the back; when the front edge gets worn down, the plate has only to be unscrewed and the unused edge brought to the front. Itwill be seen at a glance that this arrangement enables the cutting parts to last twice as long as in other Machine?, where the single-edged sole plate must be entii^ely renewedwhen the edge is worn down.
