PROFESSIONAL PRUNERS 
H. K. Porter Pole Primers —Porter Pole Primers 
were developed to meet the needs of 
commercial users of such tools for tree 
trimming on a large scale. These prun- 
ers are ruggedly designed to eliminate 
annoying replacements so common to 
ordinary tools. Because both blades are 
sharp, very close cuts are possible, per¬ 
mitting quicker healing. Light in weight, 
they may be used continuously with 
minimum fatigue. The round, basswood 
poles are 1 5/16 inches in diameter, pol¬ 
ished and varnished. This is truly a 
quality tool. Pole Pruner, complete with 
one pulley, 10 ft., $6.75; 12 ft., $7.00.

heavy duty 
pruner o f 
finest quality, designed to cut 
large branches in the throat 
and small branches at the ex¬

dles into the successive slots.
