SECATEURS, 



OR FRENCH PRUNING SCISSORS, 



As used in the Royal Horticultural Society's Gardens. 



Stuart &Mein, 

 Kelso, 



Have much plea- 

 sure in introduc- 

 ing these valu- 

 able Pruning 

 Scissors, being 

 certain they will 

 prove a great 

 boon to Garden- 

 ers and others, 

 especially for 

 Pruning Fruit 

 Trees, Roses, &c. 

 They are of ex- 



t r a o r d i n a r y 

 power (although 

 very light); they 

 make a Clean 

 Cut, are very 

 simple, and will 

 last for many 

 years. Should 

 they get blunt, 

 by simply undo- 

 ing the screw 

 they can be 

 sharpened on 

 any ordinary 

 stone in a few 

 minutes.
