Another very simple and effective machine is "Woodason's 

 Liquid and Powder Spraying Bellows, of which four styles 

 are made. The Double Cone Bellows for dusting Paris 

 green, London purple or Pyrethrum, can be purchased for 

 $3.00, and will be foundavery simple and economic machine. 

 The liquid spraying bellows can be had for .|2.l.O. These 

 machines will be found very useful, and are highly recom- 

 mended. They are manufactured by Thomas Woodason, 

 2900 D. St., Philadelphia, Penn., or they can be purchased 

 of H. A. Kuhus, Atlanta, Ga. 



In the purchasing of machines for spraying liquids, three 

 things should be taken into account. The pump should be 

 made of such materials as will not be easily affected by the 

 chemicals used, there should be some automatic device for 

 keeping the liquid constantly stirred, and the spraying noz- 

 zle should be one that is not easily clogged and one that will 

 throw a fine and uniform spray. There are many nozzles 

 manufactured for this purpose, almost any of which can be 

 purchased from a dealer in force pumps. 



The names of some of the different spraying nozzles are 

 "Masson," "Cyclone," "Vermorel," "Boss," "Graduating" 

 and "Climax." Some of these nozzles, such as the "Boss" 

 and the "Graduating," can be made to throw a fine or coarse 

 spray, or a solid stream. They are all of value and range in 

 price from a dollar to a dollar and a quarter. 



There are many force pumps with spray nozzles manu- 

 factured for spraying liquids on plants ; but my experience 

 leads me to believe that for cheapness, durability, simplicity 

 and effectiveness the pumps of The Deming Company, Salem, 

 Ohio, are superior to all others. The "Success" brass spray 

 pump for bucket is shown in fig. 4. I regard this as the best 

 pump made for ordinary use, and it is extremely cheap. 

 The regular catalogue price is $6.00, but it can be had for 

 $4.00. In ordering, one should state that they wish a hole 

 drilled in the suction casting for an agitator. 



Where it is necessary to do a large amount of spraying,
