1842-03-05 Review of Budding's Mower

An Odd-Fellow. - A MOWING-MACHINE costs from £7 to £9, according to its size; it can only be used in dry weather, and when grass is very short. Where a lawn is to be kept extremely short, this machine is more effectual than a scythe, and it has also the merit of not requiring any dexterity in using it. We, however, prefer a scythe in the hands of a good mower.
