of the most serviceable devices for spray- 

 ing plants indoors and out. Plants when

 shower that supplies the plant most 

 naturally and completely, is absolutely 

 necessary to real success with house 

 plants. Price, 75c. By mail, 10c. extra.

 operated. Cylinder, plunger rod and gland

CATERPILLAR EXTERMINATOR.— For 



destroying caterpillars and worms in Pecan 

 and other fruit trees there is nothing to 

 equal it, and wherever used it gives satis- 

 faction. It is ball-shaped and made of 

 cast iron, no soldering about it, hence can- 

 not fall apart. The ball contains a peculiar 

 substance which is soaked in kerosene oil, 

 after which it is placed on a long pole and 

 then ignited. This is slowly passed under 

 the leaves and branches; the heat and 

 resinous smoke arising from same will 

 smother and kill all living insects and 

 worms on the trees. We recommend it 

 highly. Price, $1.00; weight, 2 lbs. 



AUTO-SPRAY TORCH. — Directions ; 

 First remove the burners and fill both 

 reservoirs of torch three-quarters full of 

 kerosene oil. and replace both burners. 

 Place as many extension pipes on the 

 Auto-Spray as may be necessary to reach 

 the worm nests. See that there is no 

 solutions in the reservoir of the Auto- 

 Spray. Screw the torch to the end of the 

 extension pipe, and see that all joints are 

 made air-tight with rubber packing. Light 

 the wick in pilot torch, shut off the cock, 

 and pump reservoir full of air. By open- 

 ing the cock and releasing the air, the 

 torch will spread itself, and should throw 

 a flame from two to four feet, according 

 to the air pressure. Price, $1.00; weight.
