PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— LAWN ESSENTIALS. 



HENDEUSOfl'S "SPESE" L0WN SPRINKLER PT«1EP. 



Several sprinklers can be operated at one time with this arrangement providing the pressure or volume of water is 

 sufficient. A three-quarter inch ho'-e and thirty to forty pounds pressure will operate three sprinklers; a forty to 

 fifty pounds pressure, four sprinklers ; with one inch hose and a good pressure six sprinklers can be operated satis 

 factorily. This method of watering - originated with us last season and we found it valuable during the severe drought 

 for thoroughly saturating large areas of Celery, Cabbage, Strawberry and other plants, as well as our lawns. It 

 saves the labor of one or more men and distributes the water more evenly and thoroughly than can possibly be done 

 with a hose nozzle. 



We found that the Water Witch Lawn Sprinklers (with spur to stick in 

 the ground) were the best sprinklers for the purpose. One of these sprink- 

 lers and the " Siamese " was applied at the end of every twenty-five fcot 

 length of hose. With three twenty-five foot lengths of hose, two Siamese 

 and three Water Witch sprinklers (the last length of hose not needing a Si- 

 amese,) a continuous artificial rain is produced over area of twenty-rive feet 

 wide by seventy five feet long. Each additional length of hose with sprink- 

 ler, of course increases the area sprinkled twenty-five feet. 

 Prices : Siamese Attachment for f in. hose, 

 75c. , by mail, 8<=c.; for 1 in. hose, 85c , by 

 mail, 95c. ; Water Witch Lawn Sprinkler,

The Best 



Sprinkling Nozzle 



t,ver Made. 



It throws a flat, fan -shaped sheet of water which breaks up into myriads of small drops falling like 



gentle rain and covering an arc-like area of from 6 to 

 12 feet in diameter according to the pressure. The 

 spray is so evenly scattered that the soil does not pack 

 nor wash out from the roots of plants or grass even 

 with a full flow of water, no injury can be done the 

 most tender plants. You can water the grass or gar- 

 den in half the time consumed with other nozzles, and 

 in .1 more satisfactory and even manner. 



It is made of brass and is practically indestructible. 

 There is no clogging, no leaking on the operator. For 

 watering greenhouses, spraying under foliage as well 

 as above it, it is unequalled, and its use is sure death to

 able. It can be simply thrown down or used in con- 

 nection with our hose nozzle holder on page 9. Please
