LET I'ERS PATENT, GRANTn.D TO EDWARD JUKES
rl'fiE AVERRUNCATOR, a new-invented In-I
st rument for Pruning, ace. 8:c.
'Thtf want of on Instrument for Pruning Trees and Shrubs of too
great a height to he reached from the pound, and too weak to
eustain the weight of a ladder, has been long lett. The Ayer-
runcator will be found completely to supply Coat want. With it,
all stiperflisour branches may be cut front a tree of ary height
with the greateet nicety, without the aid of a ladder, and that too
with a facility and neatness scarcely credible. It well effectually
destroy all those bags of insects which are so deatructive to trees,
and will he fuond nut only the most useful,but the most amusing
Instrument for Pruning, tier yet offered to the Public. It may
be used in a hotizoLtal as well as perpenicular direction, and is
not only calculated fur the use of Nurserymen and Gardners,
but is equally adapted fur the use of Gentlemen, or even Ladies,l
who may without inconvenience, carry 'it in their walks round
their grounds, and remove dead and unsightly branches; and by
ailizing a small basket, it is admirably alip-ed fur gathering
grapes or other fruit banging beyond the common reach, or in,
Hot-Rouses or Green-houses, whete the introduction of a ladder
will be entirely superseded by the Averruncatnr.
This Instrument has the approval of some of the most eminent
Nur i.rymen and Gardeners in the r.tighbourhond of the Metro-
polis, and is pronounced by them a most admirable Invention ;
by the use of which, they will he able to avoid the various clumsy,
tedious, and ineffettnal expedients to which they have hitherto
been compelled • n have recourse in the necessary and Important
duty of Pruning.
