Budding Supplies 
For the past few years I have been omitting 
budding supplies but I will offer a few below 
that the orchardist or amateur grower may need. 
BUD PATCHES 
These are treated patches used in pecan budding. 
f use them in place of wax as they are easier 
handled. I can furnish these at $2.00 per hundred. 
BUDDING STRIPS 
Rubber budding strips used for tying buds in 
place. $3.00 per pound. 
SAWS 
We have a nice little saw for carrying around at 
$2.50 each. 
GRAFTING WAX AND HEALANT 
We had tried many different brands of grafting 
wax. Every one we tried had some serious defect 
until we got this one. If bark grafts in pecans are 
made right and tied in with common twine then 
waxed with this they will all live and this applies 
to any kind of graft. It seems to not only keep the 
bud graft from drying it causes the graft to heal 
faster. Pound can, $1.75. 
JONES PATCH BUDDER 
Cuts a patch \% by 1 inch. Razor 
steel blades. Aluminum handle. 
Full directions furnished. 
$2.25 each 
Bone Meal 
When planting Gladiola and all other bulbs, bone 
meal is almost a necessity. An organic fertilizer. 
Good also on roses and other shrubs. 5 pound bag, 
$1.00. 
Fitzgerald's Peat Moss 
Peat Moss is one of the greatest helps in holding 
moisture. Absorbs 12 to 15 times its own weight in 
water. Good to plant Ivy in. Anywhere you want 
a mulch peat moss can’t be beat. Good to use 
both winter and summer. 6 pound bag, $1.50.

pillars. 
Wrapping Tape for Trees 
The attached picture shows how this 
tape is used to keep borers out of trees 
and rabbits from gnawing them. It is 
put on without string or any kind of tie. 
Just wrap spirally around the tree and 
bury lower end in ground. It is made of 
two sheets of paper with cement be- 
tween. It will stretch and will protect 
the tree all the winter and in the sum- 
mer from scald and other pests. One 
of the best things we have offered. $1.50 
per roll.
