so it dischiirg-es a flue jet in tlie bottom of the bucket, to keep the solution tliorouiarhly mixed and agitated 

 —a feature peculiar to this pump. Bj' simply unscrewing' the spray nozzle the pump is ready to tlirow a 

 stream wliicli is very effective in wasliing- buggies, windows, putting out fires, oi- arresting swarms of bees. 



Fig. 3 shows the method of 

 operating. In tliis way you can 

 not throw a spray more than 

 16 feet high, so tliat, on li gii 

 trees, you can not do effective 

 work without the pipe e.xtenslon 

 shown in Figs. 4 and 5. By 

 means of this you are enabled ::^ 

 to reach all parts of the tree "^ 

 easily. Tiiis pipe extension is -«==5j^^ 

 simply a piece of common ii'-in. ^^~ 

 gas-pipe. S feet long, with coup- 

 ling, which 3-ou may be able to 

 get at your hardware store. If 

 not. we can furnish it for .50 cts. 



The pump complete, with hose and vermorel nozzle, 

 as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, with two tips, weighs 5 lbs., 

 and will be furnished for f4.50 net each. Eight-foot 

 pipe extension included for $5.00. We will sell 3 

 pumps, without pipe extension, for S10.50; 6 for $~u.(IO.

Where you have a larger amount of spraying to do, 



you can accomplish it more easily with an outfit of this 



kind. It has our patent submerged cylinder, is double- 

 acting, has patent expansion rubber Ijucket, has a large 



air-chamber to cushion the spray, is provided with TWO 



DISCHARGE PORTS, one or both of which can be used 



for spraying. The base is properly shaped to fasten on 



the staves or head of ;i barrel, has "steel pins, brass plung- 

 er cylinder, and brass-lined lower cylinder, good leverage, 



is very powerful, and easy to operate, will tlirow a spray 



as fine as mist over any ordinary fruit-tree, and will 



throw a solid stream 60 feet from the point of tlie nozzle. 

 This can be mounted either on the end or side of a 



barrel. Tht- barrel may be mounted on wheels; or, if you 



have a horse to spare. It can be drawn around under the 



trees in a WHgon or on a stoneboat. There are two ports, 



to one or both of which a hose may be attached. This 



outfit includes vermorel nozzle, the same as the bucket 



pump, and the pine extension can also be used, if needed, 



for high tiees We can lurnish theoutfit as shown, with- 

 ( onsistmg of pump with 3 feet of suction- 



and agitator, 5 feet of rubber hose and Fig b 



with two e.xtra tips, for $6 £0; or the same with two 5 foot lengths of hose and tw o nozzles, 

 for $7. .50; 8- foot extension, ,it 50c < xtia We have extra spray 

 nozzles without the degorgei , and with attai hments to fit ordi- 

 nary ^4-inch garden hose it6()ce<ich In mail, 75c 



In this connection we would call attention to the Whit- 

 man and Sniitli pumps listed on page 13 of our catalogue, 

 either of which we can furnish at prii^es listed there. The 

 Smith pump especially is well adapted for spraying. It is 

 strong and serviceable for a tin pump, and we sell a good many 

 of them. To save you looking it up we quote the prices here. 

 Each, SBI.OO; 2 for $1.80; 3 for $2.00; Idoz.; $8.00; 2 doz., $15.00; 

 50 for $39.00, or 100 for $55.00 net cash. While It is strong 

 and serviceable, we do not like the principles on which it works as well as the 



Common Sense Spray-Pump. 



The adjoining cut shows its constru'-tion and manner of working. The 

 piston, or i)lunger, is worked with a lever handle, giving greater force 

 tor the same power exerted. The plunger-tube is shorter, and larger in 

 diameter, than the ordinary pump. If the water conies over the top it spills 

 right into the pail again. It has an air-chamber, with valve, giving a con- 

 tinuous stream or spray. It has a short rubber hose to give direction to the 

 streMin or spray, without moving the pump. It has also an adjustable nozzle 

 for stream or spray. We offered this puni]) for the first time last season, and 

 they gave general satisf.iction. Their only fault is they are not made 

 very strong, but if judiciously handled will do good work for a long time. 

 We are able to offer them this year for only 60c each, or fl.O'l postpaid. In 

 quantities the price will be $6.00 per doz.; 3 doz. for $16.00. Larger quantities 

 quoted on applic;ition.
