(Fig. 1263.) 



Many conditions are encountered under 

 which the barrel "Kerowater" cannot be 

 advantageously operated, as in green- 

 houses, work on side hills, etc. For these 

 purposes we have introduced the (Fig. VZljH) 

 Knapsack "Kerowater." 



It is provided with straps for carrying on 

 back, or may be used wii h reservoir resting 

 on ground. It embodies thesame principle 

 asdescribed under Fiar. 1187, ami consists of 

 two independent pumps, operated by a 

 common lever, i>lacea in a galvanized iron 

 tank, with divisions for oil aud water. Com- 

 bined capacity about 5 gallons. Quantity 

 of oil used is controlled by adjustment of a 

 single pio, and may be varied to 5, 10, 15,20 

 ()r2j percent. Pump maybe operated by 

 • ither hand by changing lever to right or 

 eft.

Gould's Kerowater/' 



For Eiuulsifying ami Spraying Kero- 

 sene and AVater. 



It consists of two pumps, one for waterand 

 one for oil, but having one common e.vit at 

 the hose. Both pumps are contained within 

 the barrel. Instead of mi.xing the oil and 

 water at the suction, the emulsion is made 

 at the discharge. Kerosene is p iured into 

 the oil tank through a marked filling hole, 

 and water into the barrel. The amoant of 

 oil used is controlled by the proportionate 

 stroke of the pumps. In the end of the lever 

 are drilled a number of holes 'see top of cut), 

 into one of which is inserted a coupling pin. 

 By removing the pin from one set of holes to 

 another the percentage of oil can be graded 

 from 5 per cent, to 25 per cent, easily and 

 quickly. Figures near each hole indicate the 

 percentagjof oil the pin working in that hole 

 will supply The mixture is positively accu- 

 rate. A brass shut-off is seen near the top, 

 attached to the hose, to prevent pure oil 

 from being thrown at any time. 



Barrel is furnished with outfits shown

EXAMPLE. 



To make a mixture containing 15 per cent, 

 oil (the proportion we recommend for gen- 

 eral usel. It is only necessary to fill the main 

 tank with water and the smaller one with 

 kerosene; turn the indicator to the 15 per 

 cent, mark, and the apparatus is ready for 

 us-i A new proportion of oil may be ob- 

 tained by simply changing the position of 

 the indicator. When the position of the in- 

 dicator is changed, however, the new pro- 

 portion Will not be obtained until a few 

 strokes have cleared the mixture already in 

 the pump

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 O the valve in the 

 kerosene tank is closed, so that pure water 

 will bo pumped. By turning the indicator a 

 certain amount the check valve controlling 

 the oil is allowed to raise a definite height, 

 thus allowing a definite amount of oil to pass 

 mto the pump cyUnder. The proportion of 

 oil does not vary except as the oil indicator 

 IS turned. 



Spraying is not a matter of rule, but of 

 ' judgment. Know the lite history of the in- 

 sect or plant disease so you can sprny when 

 i it will be most effective. Be prompt, thor- 

 ^ ough and persistent. Remember that fungi- 

 f cides are better preventatives than remedies. 

 y Practical men have found that it pays to 

 / spray every season, whether the disease is 

 prevalent or not, simply as a matter of in- 

 surance. It is a small premium and a very 

 good policy. 



LEAF-EATIXG INSECTS. 



Among these may be prominently men- 

 tioned the caterpillar, which has been so 

 very destructive to shade trees, etc , in Balti- 

 more the past season. The caterpillar is a 

 leaf-eating insect, and for all such Parit 

 Oreen is the insecticide. 



For all sucking insects use kerosene at the 

 rate of 15 per cent, of oil. Never spray fruit 

 trees ivhile in bloom. 



If Paris Green is used on blossoms it will 

 cause tiie death of the bees in the neighbor- 

 hood.
