THE GIANT PRUNER. 



The New and Latest Invention for Scientific Pruning £ 

 and Training on a large scale. 



The great success of the "Standard" Tree Primer and the ^ 

 " Mytii-uttah" has induced us to give our attention to the pro- 

 duction of a somewhat similar Implement, but of a much more 

 powerful construction. In the Giant Pruner you have a tool 

 capable of EASILY cutting a branch 7 inches in circumference, 

 with au exerting pressure of l£ tons.

Hand to Hand I i 



MYTICUTTAH" 



(Registered Trade Mark and Title). 

 Patented in Great Britain. France, and Germvny. 



Hitherto, strictly correct Pruning could only be 

 done by holding the branch with one hand and 

 using a Knife with the other, but then only for 

 small branches, whereas the "Mytieuttah" itself 

 holds the branch, cutting over an inch iu diameter, 

 and in case of prickly bushes, &c, it saves the 

 hands from injury. Garden and Lopping Shears, 

 which hack and bruise the branch, are entirely 

 superseded by this new Patent, and its many 

 advantages will at once commend it tj the 

 practical Gardener or Forester.
