WHEELER'S 



COMPOUND LIQUID HOSE DISTRIBUTOR 



AND 



WATERING 



POT. 



PateiiteJ July 20, 1875. 



These articles are of special interest to Agriculturists, Horticulturists, Florists, and others, aa 

 by their use compounds containing any special ingredient made for destroying insects or mildew on 

 Plants, Shrulis, Trees, (under glass or in the open air) or for fertilizing, can be re'ducedto liquid form 

 and distributed by the action of water flowing through hose-pipe or spout, without interrupting the 

 original pressure of the water. 



The advantage and economy of this method of applying these compounds, at the same time the 

 ordinary daily watering is done, with no other labor or expense of time, must be evident to all who 

 have had experience in making and applying in the usual way the disagreeable compounds for fer- 

 tilizing, or for destroying insects such as Green Aphis, Thrips, Mealy Bugs, Red Spider, Scale, Cur- 

 rant Worm, Rose Slug, Caterpillar, Canker Worm, &c. 



The method of using these articles is simply to place within the globe of the Hose Distributor 

 and the several chambers of the Watering-pot the desired compounds, which by the action of the 

 flowing water are dissolved or disintegrated, and are distributed with the water on the desired object. 



The practical results of these machines in the saving of time, labor, material and annoyance, 

 together with the increased health and vigor of the plants, commend them to all, and the hearty 

 approval of prominent Horticulturists and Florists throughout the country, endorse the general opin- 

 ion of their value. • 



The hollow glolie of the Hose Distrilmtor is made to fit couplings for 3-4 inch hose, Boston 

 thread. It can be made to order to fit coupling of any size or thread. 



Price of Distributor $10.00; Watering-Pot $6.00, C. O. D. 



The Manufacture of the Compounds used with these machines is fully protected by- 

 Letters Patent, and is carried on solely by the Patentee and Proprietor. 



The price of nearly all these special Compounds, put up in balls, ready for immediate use, is 20 

 cents per pound; in S'lb. and 10 ft. boxes, 15 cents per pound, delivered at any Express in Boston, 

 C. O. D. A lilieral discount to the trade. Full directions for using the Compounds are sent with each

 W. F. WHEELER. Esq.— 



Dear Sir ; — It gives me great pleasure to inform you that 

 after a thorough and careful examination of the use of your 

 Automatic Compound Liquid Distributor by one of the largest 

 Florists in this city, 1 am fully satisfied of the efficient work it 

 performs. In hothouses it will be appreciated, for while it can be 

 relied on for the extermation of insects, it effects a great say- 

 ing of time, labor, material and annoyance. I heartily congratu- 

 late you on your successful invention.
