MACHINES FOE APPLYING POISONS. 



There are a great many kinds of machines and devices 

 manufactured and sold by dealers for applying insecticides 

 and fungicides, some of which are very good, and every 

 farmer, fruit grower and gardener should have at least one. 

 In order to save the purchaser time and trouble in making 

 a selection, a few of the more important machines are here 

 figured, together with the price and manufacturers address. 



It is of course important, whenever possible, that one 

 provide himself with two machines, one for using a powder, 

 the other for spraying a liquid ; but in case only one can be 

 purchased, a force pump and spraying nozzle should be se- 

 lected, since one can often mix the powder with the water 

 and apply it in this way.
