Nurseries (Horticulture) Connecticut Catalogs; Seeds Catalogs; Garden tools Catalogs; Agricultural implements Catalogs. 88 CAD WELL & JONES DESGRLPTIVE CATALOGUE. COLLINS AXES. COLLINS & CO. HARTFORD. LEGITIMUS ALL axes with the above trade-mark are made from the very best quality of tool steel and have from nine to twelve pounds in every dozen, all of which is available for cutting purposes. The eyes are punched from solid best-refined wrought iron. COLLINS Axes are made upon the principle that a good tool is the cheapest in the end, and that a good tool cannot be made ex- cept from the best of materials adapted to the purpose. No better proof of the wisdom of this policy can be given than the fact that there are more COLLINS Axes sold annually than of any other brand, and the demand, is constantly increasing. No expense is spared in either materials or labor to have them maintain their position as The Standard of the World. CHEAP AXES. Many markets are flooded with Axes of gaudy appearance which are sold at very low prices. Such goods are always made for the price, the brand or name being no guide as to quality. The cutting steel is cheap in quality, and of small quantity. It is placed on the outside of the iron and makes a fine appearance in the finished Axe. Such steel has little endurance or wearing quality and four pounds will answer for a dozen Axes. Goods of this kind are made from the cheapest materials, with only so mnch labor as may be necessary for appearances, and are dear in cost to both trader and consumer.
