BETTER FRUIT

The Commanding Position of 



has not come from accideut, but from sheer merit and intrinsic value. Today we give 

 you still more spray pump value than ever. 



Our 1916 machines are equipped witli the most perfect gasoline engine made. 

 Specially designed for hard, continuous spray-pump duty. Its smooth easy running will 

 delight you; its fuel economy surprise you. Besides providing you M'ith sufficient power 

 to constantly maintain the highest spraying pressure, there yet remains a surplus of 

 energy ready for any extraordinary demand. 



All Hardie pumps mean efficiency of the highest degree. Sturdily built and properly 

 designed, they perform their heavy task of constant, high-pressure Avork so easily that their 

 use becomes a pleasure. Rapidity and thoroughness are asssured by their ample capacity. 



The Hardie Peerless Pressure Regulator used on our power machines has made a 

 certainty of high pressure work. A control of the pressure at any desired point is given 

 that is not obtainable with any other device. The wide variation in pressure so notice- 

 able in other power machines is not present. By relieving the pump and engine of their 

 load when the nozzles are turned off, it extends the life of both pump and engine. 



Together with good design and workmanship, we put another ingredient into our 

 regulator: that is, reliability. 



Reliability is characteristic of all Hardie Power Sprayers. It explains not only why 

 over 7,000 fruit growers now own one, but also the yearly increasing demand for them. 



Spraying with any machine will make you money. Using a Hardie means simply 

 making you more money through its better and easier work and lower operating cost. 



The story of the Hardie will prove interesting to every fruit grower. Our catalog 

 tells it. Send for it today.
