S v..x- w heeln that is found upon other grass cutters is conspicuous by its ab sence in this implement.

No expense has been spared in its construction to make it the strongest machine for the purpose required in the field. It is Bold upon its merits. They have been so extensively used throughout New England that further comment is Jun necessary.
