=| A Good Spray Pump earns big 
profits and lasts for years. 
THE ECLIPSE 
is a good pump. As _ practical 
fruit growers we were using the 
common sprayers in our own 
orchards—found their defects 
and then invented THE 
ECLIPSE. Its success practi-

no chances. We have done all 
the experimenting.
