each year more than 3 X A million plants must be set out it is of

cramped fingers, and above all it must dig the proverbial "dollar 
hole for a 6c plant,” a good size hole that will hold all the roots 
without cramping. The result is this new trowel. Smooth, solid 
wooden handle (painted red so you won’t lose it), short shank to 
prevent tired wrist. Short, sharp, wide blade for easy digging of 
wide hole, 
55c each; $6.00 per doz.
