The eminent manufacturers of pruning-knives and otlier edge tools 

 Messrs. Saynor, Cooke, and Eidal, Paxton Works, Sheffield, have 

 lately introduced a new folding case or " EoU " of their celebrated 

 pruning tools, specially designed for carrying in the pocket for use in 

 the forest, nursery, or garden, and of which a sample has been sub- 

 mitted to us for our inspection. The "Eoll" consists of a strong 

 waterproof case, into which the different tools are securely fixed in 

 the loops of a strap, so that the whole can be expeditiously folded up 

 into a " roll " about ten inches long, which can be conveniently 

 carried in the coat pocket. The rolls are made of two sizes, the 

 larger one being specially designed for the use of foresters, and is 

 fitted with a suitable set of tools, consisting of a strong stag-horn 

 handle, having a powerful thumb-spring and socket, into which the 

 various tools are inserted for use, and firmly held in their place 

 by the spring ; three sizes of strong well-shaped praning-knives ; a 

 useful budding knife ; a handy pruning saw for amputating branches 

 of a size too large for being easily cut off with either of the knives ; 

 a capital pair of pruning shears for lopping smaller twigs ; an excel- 

 lent timber-scribe ; a pair of nippers and a marking point ; and lastly 

 that generally appreciated article, a strong and useful corkscrew. 

 The whole comprises a complete set of strong, well-finished, and 

 serviceable pruning and timber marking tools, with which every 

 forester ought to be furnished so as to be able to perform his work 

 in the most expeditious and satisfactory manner. 



The smaller roll is designed chiefly for use in the nursery and 

 garden, and is fittedup with a lighter description of similar tools 

 more suitable for the work to b?. performed, consisting of the strong 

 spring stag-horn handle ; six diiTe-rent forms of pruning, budding,
