Garden Tools iii 
Improved Grass. The blades, of tem¬ 
pered cutlery steel, hold their edge, and

whole length from the “heel” to the 
extreme points. The handles fit the 
hand comfortably and naturally. $1.25 
each. 
Frictionless Grass Shears. Top blade roller 
mounted (biggest improvement ever made), 
making frictionless operation and perfect 
alignment of cutting edges. Other features 
include drop forged hollow-ground blades 
and unbreakable coil tension spring that 
can be adjusted. Hand is kept clear off 
the ground. $1.50 each.

Rhodes’ Double-Cut Pruner 
A good and powerful Pruner. Cuts from 
both sides of the limb, and does not bruise 
the bark. Long ferrules; handles do not pull 
out; blades are of the best forged steel. 
28-in., $5 each. 
Hedge Trimmer, Little Wonder. A well- 
designed machine which entirely revolu¬ 
tionizes hedge-trimming. It actually cuts 
a hedge as fast as you walk, and in an hour 
will trim the top and two 
sides of a hedge 300 feet 
long; this is from five to ten 
times as fast as hand-work. 
The cutting blades are of 
tough steel, holding a sharp 
edge for a long while 
and trimming every 
variety of hedge 
grown. Use it for 
trimming, and not 
for “cutting back” 
a hedge, and it will 
last for years.
