KANSAS PRUNING KNIFE IMPROVED 
No. 1 
The Kansas Pruning 
Knife has revolutionized 
Ti'ee pruning. Instead of 
T^^j-J^ being a hard and labor- 
" ious taslt it is made a 
pleasant pastime on ac- 
count of the ease and 
speed with which it can 
be done. 
On heavy limbs, or in 
cutting any limb close to 
the body of the tree, the 
knife works automatic- 
ally — no levers to oper- 
ate by hands — just put 
the hook over the limb 
and give a quick straight 
pull on the handle, as 
shown in cut 1, and off 
comes the limb. 
For cutting small outer 
or swinging branches, at- 
tach a cord to the ring 
In the sleeve, put the 
hook over the branch to 
be cut and pull on the 
cord, as shown in cut 2. 
The work that this 
knife will do is wonder- 
ful. Five or six trees 
can be trimmed with it 
while one is being done 
with other knives. It will 
pay for itself every two 
or three days in use for 
the saving of time. It 
will cut any limb, from 
the size of a match to 
one and one-quarter inch 
in diameter. Any length 
handle can be used, giv- 
ing one the advantage of 
standing on the ground 
to do the work and doing 
It properly. No climbing, 
no standing or no hang- 
ing to limbs to work and 
make mistakes where one 
can't tell what to take 
out or what to leave. 
Thousands in use that 
are giving the best of 
satisfaction. The Kansas 
Pruning Knife needs no 
special recommendation, 
by its work it speaks for 
itself and proves its great 
value. Price, $3.50. 
No. 2 
Pennsylvania Lawn Cleaner and Kake 
This machine will remove from the lawn not only the cut 
grass but all sorts of litter, leaves and trash, leaving the 
grass standing upright and free from foreign matter that pre- 
vents the sunlight and dew from getting to the roots. The 
action of the three revolving 24-inch wire tooth rakes is bene- 
ficial to the turf, for it raises up the low growing crab grass 
and other spreading woods, allowing the lawn mower to cut 
the seed pods off before they ripen, thus preventing their re- 
appearing the following year. This machine is easy to operate, 
and with it one boy will do more and better work than four 
men w/ith hand rakes. Most perfect device of Its kind on the 
market.
