Keep Your 



Crops Growing 



In Time of Drought 



B£ independent of the rain clouds. The 

 Hurst Overhead Irrigation System 

 gives you water in the right quantity 

 when and where you need it. It applies the 

 water in a fine mist like a gentle rain that 

 settles down on the plants without packing 

 the soil, promoting a strong and healthy 

 growth. Fifteen days' drought will often kill 

 a crop and rob you of your season's profit un- 

 less you are prepared. Irrigation means big 

 crops at high prices, when your neighbors 

 who trust to Nature have failures. 



The Hurst System 



Of Overhead Irrigation 



is the result of years of experience and is 

 backed by a reliable concern. Material and 

 workmanship guaranteed. We give you free 

 of charge the services of our Engineering 

 Department to help you in choosing the 

 right kind and size of system for your needs. 



You can start in a small way with the 

 Hurst System. It can be used on any sized 

 plot from half acreup and more pipes added 

 as greater acreage is desired. 



You can also use the Hurst System for ap- 

 pljring liquid manure, the best and quickest 

 growth producer knowu.
