lated for all kinds of ground and grass

farmers, there difference the draft whether cutting

The draft of this Mower is direct from the main shoe
and extension spring, thus taking of all unnecessary
weight from the horses necks. They never injure the

chimes where the main shoe is boled directly the frame
