 had pery good results. Also used some of it for wrapping the top grafts on 

 different kind of trees. We recommend the tape for general use in nursery 

 grafting."

Hawkeye Tree Protectors 



THE HAWKEYE TREE PROTECTORS are a 

 sure protection against sunscald, rabbits, mice 

 and other vermin, as -well as against damage by 

 cultivation. We make them out of water rock elm 

 which grows on some of the islands in the Mississippi 

 River. This timber becomes hard and tough when 

 exposed to the weather, defying the teeth of all vermin. 

 The wood has a bitter taste, which is obnoxious to all 

 tree gnawers. 



Anyone can attach the Hawkeye Protector with 

 very little work. To secure best results soak the] 

 Protectors about 15 minutes in water, wrap them 

 around the tree as many times as possible with the 

 black end down. Then tie with a string or wire top j 

 and bottom. Keep the upper end of the roll a little 

 smaller than the lower to prevent the tie from slipping 

 down. 



Price. 45c. per doz ; $3.00 per 100; $28.00 per 1.000. 

 Packed weight, 4 lbs. per dozen; 35 lbs per 100.
