Make Your Oivn Spray 



Home Boiled Lime Sulphur is being used in Inareaedng 

 quantities by leading fruit growers and fruit growers' aseocia- 

 tione. They find' that by making their own spray they can ef- 

 fect a considerable money eaytng, and at the sajne time prodiuce 

 a preparation that will do the work thoroughly. 



It is an easy matter to make home boiled Idme sulphur. 



The chief essential is a proper spray cooker. We marauf^uo- 



:ure two kinds of cookers, one with a single tank, and one 



with a double tank. (See illustration.) They are designed 



especially tor this purpose, amd will giye the greatest efB- 



eiency with the greatest saving of fuel. They can be used 



for either wood or soft ooal. 



The tanks are made of heavily ga Ivanized steel, thoroughly rivetted and 



Roldert^d . Will not leak . They are b uilt to give satisfaction, amd axe 



guaranteed. 



Made in five sizes, capacity 30 to 7 5 gals. Prices and full particulars on

How Do YOI) Spread Manure 



THE above illustration shows the diflference in crops, ^^ 

 between the I H C way o£ spreading manure— and the ^ 

 pitchfork method. 

 The pitchfork way is slow, hard, and disagreeable, wastes much 

 Tof the value of tne manure, and the results hardly justify the labor and 

 ' time invested. 



The I H C Spreader cuts the manure into fine shreds, spreads it 

 {evenly, and makes the work easy. Spreading manure the I H C way is 

 [bound to result in better soil, bigger crops, and more profits. 



I H C Manure Spreaders 



Com King— Cloverleaf 



I are simple, strong, and durable. They have many advan- 

 tages that make them superior to other spreaders. 



All working parts are extremely simple and wonderfully 

 strong. The beater driving gear is held in a single casting, 

 so that there is no binding— no cutting of parts caused by the 

 gears springing out of alignment. The roller-bearing sup- 

 port for the apron reduces the draft. The levers are conven- 

 ient. The feed changing device can be shifted quickly and 

 easily. The wide range of adjustment allows you to spread 

 [manure heavy, mediiim, or light, as your judgment tells 

 I you is best for the soil. 



Whether you have a large or small farm, or want a 

 spreader for orchard use or truck gardening— there is 

 ' an I H C that will suit your requirements. Why 

 not see the I H C local agent at once? Get a 

 catalogue from him, or, write nearest branch house.
