The "Advance Age" Kerosene Sprayers, 



75 



We think it well to call this line of Sprayers the 

 ■"ADVANCE AGE," and designate them under 

 three heads, viz., the "Weed," the "Success, and 

 the "Peerless." 



TO OBVIATE THE OBJECTIONS TO THE 

 MORE extended use of kerosene as an insecticide, 

 for several years past the manufacturers have been 

 at work in perfecting some sprayers whereby the 

 .kerosene may be mechanically mixed with water 

 during the process of pumping. 



THE KEROSENE is placed in a separate tank 

 connecting with the pump cylinder by means of a 

 suction pipe. A suction pipe also connects with the 

 water reservoir, so that both kerosene and water 

 are forced through the pump at each stroke of the 

 plunger. The mixing of the liquids takes place par- 

 tially in the pump, but more largely in the nozzle, 

 where they are divided into the very finest particles 

 in the shape of a mist-like spray. 



THE PROPORTION OP OIL is controlled by 

 means of a valve in the kerosene tank. This valve 

 Is connected with the indicator on the top of the 

 tank by means of a rod. 



The figures on the gauge indicate the per cent, 

 of oil to the entire mixture which will be pumped 

 when the indicator is placed at the different per 

 cent, marks. Thus when the indicator points to 

 -0 the valve in the kerosene tank is closed so that 

 t pure water will be pumped. By turning the indi- 

 cator a certain amount, the check valve controll- 

 ing the oil is allowed to raise a definite height, 

 thus allowing a definite amount of oil to pass into 

 the pump cylinder. 



The proportion of oil does not vary except as the 

 oil indicator is turned. 



EXAMPLE:— To make a mixture containing fif- 

 teen per cent, oil — the proportion we recommend 

 for general use— it is only necessary to fill the main 

 tank with water and the smaller one with kero- 

 sene, turn the indicator to the fifteen per cent, 

 mark, and the apparatus is ready for use. A new 

 proportion of oil may be obtained by simply chang- 

 ing the position of the indicator. When the posi- 

 tion of the indicator is changed, however, the new 

 ;uroportion will not be obtained until a few strokes 

 have cleared the mixture already in the pump. 



The "Peerless" 

 Kerosene Sprayer. 



Copper Tank and Brass 



Pump. Fig. 529. 

 This outfit has been de- 

 signed for use in orchard 

 spraying with kerosene for 

 the destruction of scale in- 

 sects and plant lice. 



Our Peerless Kerosene 

 Sprayers will accomplish this 

 much needed work of de- 

 stroying the scale insects eas- 

 ily,cheaply and speediy. The 

 work may be done at any 

 season of the year, and is 

 accomplished in the same 

 manner as in ordinary 

 orchard spraying. 



An extra suction pipe and 

 our mechanical agitator are 

 furnished with this outfit, so 

 that the kerosene tank, 

 suction pipe, etc., may be 

 removed and the extra suc- 

 tion pipe and agitator used. 

 The outfit then becomes the 

 Peerless Barrel Sprayer for use in the application of the 

 Bordeaux mixture and the arsenites. This outfit is fur- 

 nished with either iron or brass air chamber, as listed 

 •below.
