Herewith we show a view of the 

 exhibit made at the Panama-Pacific 

 Exposition by the Bean Spray Pump 

 Company, of San Jose, California, and 

 Lansing, Michigan. 



The grand prize, the highest award 

 in tlic Iiands of the international .iury, 

 was given to the Bean power sprayers. 

 In addition to the grand prize the con- 

 cern received a number of gold medals 

 and other awards. 



The Bean Spray Pump Company is 

 well and favorably known throughout 

 the Northwest as manufacturers of 

 spraying outfits, and this recognition of 



superiority by the exposition judges 

 will not be a surprise to those who are 

 familiar with the high-grade outfits 

 that are put out by the Bean factory. 



The central feature of the display 

 was a beautiful waterfall, the water 

 being carried to the top of the falls by 

 a Bean pump, and rushing down over 

 the rocks in foaming cascades, it was 

 returned to the reservoir, from which 

 it was again pumped to the falls. Three 

 different outfds were rigged up for 

 pumping the water: a 10-h.p. Bean en- 

 gine direct connected to a 4-inch Bean 

 pump; a 5-h.p. motor direct connected 



to a Bean 3-inch pump, and a 2.5-h.p. 

 Bean engine belt connected to a (i-inch 

 Bean pump. These various outfits 

 could be switched on or ofT at will, thus 

 permitting the visitors to see the differ- 

 ent combinations in operation. 



The company's exhibit embraced a 

 full line of their hand and power 

 sprayers, including the Bean Magic, the 

 wonderful little high pressure hand 

 puni|); the Bean Nursery Sprayer, a 

 recent addition to the Bean line; the 

 Bean Double Giant, a new outfit more 

 powerful than anything in the way of 

 a power sprayer hitherto made, and 

 other outfits included in the new Bean 

 line for 1916. 



The exhibit was always a center of 

 interest for visiting fruit growers, and 

 representatives of the company were 

 kept constantly busy explaining the 

 various Bean features and demonstrat- 

 ing the different outfits. 



A feature that never failed to com- 

 mand attention was the Bean pressure 

 regulator, a vast improvement over the 

 old style safety valve, and one which 

 the manufacturers have clearly proven 

 reduces the wear and fear on the engine 

 and pump by nearly half, at the same 

 time saving a large percentage of the 

 fuel. 



The Bean Spray Pump Company has 

 just issued a complete new catalog, the 

 largest and finest book of its kind ever 

 issued by this firm. It is profusely 

 illustrated and embraces the complete 

 Bean line, from the smallest hand pump 

 up to the new Double Giant. The cata- 

 log will certainly be of interest to every 

 fruit grower, and a copy will be mailed 

 to all who address the Bean Spray 

 Pump Company at San Jose, California. 



This article would not be complete 

 without mention of the new, finely 

 ecpiipped offices and stockroom that 

 have replaced that portion of the Bean 

 plant at San Jose which was destroyed 

 by fire several months ago. Before the 

 ashes were cold plans were under way 

 for reconstruction, and the burned 

 structure has been replaced with one 

 considerably larger and better. It is a 

 notable fact that the fire, though of con- 

 siderable extent, did not seriously delay 

 deliveries of the company's products; 

 that part of the factory unharmed 

 having been put into operation within 

 twelve hours after the fire. The plant 

 is now protected by a modern sprinkling 

 system, and a repetition of the disaster 

 is practically imijossible. The rebuilt 

 plant is one of the most convenient and 

 efTiciently equipped of its kind to be 

 found an\where. 



The Washington .State Penitentiary has just 

 placed with the Shady Brook Milling Company 

 of Walia Walla an order for Shady Brook 

 Dairy I'eed enough for the next six months. 

 They have a fine herd of Holstein cattle.
