NEW PRINCIPLE IN MECHANICS, The Gearing of a Mowing Machine reduced to Two Oog Wheels, and only One of them Revolves. THE NEW CHAMPION MOWER Is a Machine for cutting grass, that pos sesses peculiar points of excellence not found on other mowing machines. The oompli cated mass of gear wheels that is found upon other grasa cutters is conspicuous by its ab eence in this implement. The power to drive the entt’'-- ,-v' is derived from a pair of parallel loomed wheels that meet face to face, engaging fully one-third of the teeth at one time. By this mode of obtain ing power the greatest speed is obtained without injury to the heels or bearings, besides the pressure so evenly divided that the wear upon these gear wheels is imperceptible. FULLY ONE-THIRD MORE POWER Is derived by this new movement than is obtained from the old style of bevel gear and spur pinon, besides the motion is directly transmitted to the knife, while fully one third of the power on the old-fashioned mowing machines is lost by friction while passing through the various gears, pinene, spur wheels, bevel gears, etc., before it reaches the cutters, SPECIAL POINTS OF EXCELLENCE Simplicity in construction, New mechanical gearing. Elevation of cutters while in motion. Patent foot lever to control finger bar. Direct hitch rod to lessen the draft. Independent gear wheels to cut right a» left. Easy manner to dissect machine. Tilt lever for raising or lowering ent. Reliablepitmanconnectionto knife heel The moat convenient machine for handling. Strong and positive cutting power, with out choking. Very light draft and well constructed. Th mower is the recognised leader of grass implements. No expense has been spared in its construction to make it the strongest machine for the purpose required in the field. It is sold upon its merits. They have been so extensively used throughout New England that further comment U un ueccssaryt
