then on thick sward or on hard soil <br> on walks and roads a heavy roller is needed With a Henderson Water Ballast Roller one can secure <br> any weight desired between minimum and maximum by simply removing a thumb-cap from each end <br> and filling the two hollow sections with as much water or sand as may be needed which is <br> easily and quickly done with a hose or through a funnel ; and the roller is as quickly emptied <br> The inside being heavily galvanized it will last for years <br> These are perfect rollers and do perfect work on lawns tennis courts golf grounds roads <br> walks etc They are high grade in every respect being carefully manufactured of best material <br> They will be found practically noiseless and very durable The rolling surfaces are very <br> smooth and will not gather grass or soil; the sections fit closely leaving no mark and the <br> diameters are large insuring a lighter draft for a given weight than is usual <br> The Henderson Patent Water Ballast Roller for man power Weighs 300 lbs ;
