Raffia 
The Red Star Brand 
of Raffia is a favorite 
among nurserymen. It 
is so well adapted for 
their use that a majority 
of them will use no other 
brand. 
It is of a good, even, 
dependable grade and 
guaranteed quality. 
Strands are of good 
length, strength and 
color, also soft and pli¬ 
able. By guaranteed 
quality we mean that 
quality must be first-class 
or we will replace any 
that may prove inferior. 
You assume no risk 
whatever. 
Pruning Shears, Budding and 
Pruning Knives 
The shears and knives offered, excepting the “ Empire,” are the cele¬ 
brated “Maher & Grosh ” make, which is sufficient guarantee of their 
excellence. No better knives are made. All blades are guaranteed “razor 
steel” and have been thoroughly tested. 
Bear in mind, our prices are for the goods postpaid at your risk. If 
you wish them by registered mail add eight cents to your order.
