APPENDIX I. 177 



and has a dasher agitator which will thoroughly mix all spraying com- 

 pounds. A newly-designed metal ring grip of improved construction 

 lias been added, so that the pump can be removed from the pail and 

 refixed in a few seconds. It is perfect in every respect, and guaranteed 

 to give satisfaction. 



The Victoria is of the best construction and workmanship. Being 

 manufactured entirely of brass and gun metal, it is not injuriously 

 affected by corrosive solutions ; nevertheless it is advisable that the 

 bucket be rinsed out, and fresh water passed through the pump after 

 each day's spraying. It is supplied with 6 feet of the best quality hose, 

 an 18-in. galvanized-iron delivery pipe, stop cock, agitator, and im- 

 proved Triumph Spray Nozzle. 



Price: Complete as shown, in 5-gallon drum, £2 15s. ; in 10-gallon 

 drum, £4.

Knowles' Obchardist Sprat Pump. 



{See Fig. 10.) 



This old favorite has been much improved for the present season. 

 It will be found equal to the requirements of those fruit-growers and 

 vignerons who cultivate from 15 to 30 acres. The outlets have been 

 so arranged that (by means of a loose cap which is sent with each 

 pump) it may now be used with a single delivery if so desired, and 

 if purchased as a single delivery it can at any time be converted into 

 a double delivery at a cost of £1 for hose, delivery pipe, stop cock, 

 nozzle, and union connexion. 



As shown in the illustration, the Orchardist is fitted in a strong 

 oak cask (holding 40 gallons) on a stand, and is furnished with 

 two 15-ft. lengths of best quality rubber hose, two 36-in. delivery 

 pipes, with stop cocks and patent Triumph Nozzles (which can be 

 used either on 18-in. or 36-in. lengths), an improved ring grip (which 

 securely fixes the pump in the cask, yet allows of its removal in a 

 few seconds), a dasher agitator, and a copper strainer measuring 

 0x5x5. Both valves are accessible, and may easily be removed 

 if necessary. 



Price : Single delivery, without cask, £4 10s. ; double ditto, 

 £5 10s. ; single delivery, with cask and copper strainer, &c., £6 ; 

 double ditto, £7.
