Bartlett Compound Lever Tree Trimmers 
No. 1 -RJ has a jointed pole made in 4-foot lengths. The Compound Lever head is calculated for 
heavy work and will cut a limb up to 1% inches in diameter. Instead of running a rod, connecting the 
knife lever along one side of the pole to a handle lever, the handle lever is placed on the opposite side, 
which allows the rod to cross the pole. As a result, one-half the strain is thrown on each side of 
the pole, which gives about double strength. The jointed pole appeals to the user because of the 
fact that only one pole is necessary for either high or low trimming. It is also an advantage in 
that it can be carried about in 4-foot lengths, also be conveniently put away after the pruning 
season is over. Postpaid

sections, each $2.75. Postage extra, 10 cts. per section.

spring is 4 inches long, giving quick and positive action. The rod is ^inch steel, galvanized. Cutting

Tiffany “Hammer-Forged” Pruners 
These are strictly high-class Pruners in every detail. Forged from special steel they are carefully 
tempered to stand the strain and hold a keen edge. They are put together with a heavy rivet under 
tremendous pressure, which insures a good fit, having no nuts to work loose. Their steel levers are 
forged thin and light, yet are very stiff and strong, and the wooden hand-grips are put on to stay. 
The jaws open very quickly without spreading the handles too far apart. Blade is thin and, 
having the draw-cut principle, cuts very smooth and easy, leaving no stub. Its high quality 
will prove it a good investment. Cuts 1 K-inch limbs with ease. Length 25 inches. Either 
pattern, $3, postpaid. 
Tiffany Grafting Tool 
Forged from one piece of fine crucible steel. It makes

far. Length 8 inches. $1.25 postpaid. 
Tiffany Improved Tree Scraper 
A handy tool for removing loose bark that harbors
