BARR'S LONDON-MADE ECONOMIC SUCTION GARDEN ENGINES, 



No. l.-TO BE WORKED BY A MAN OR A LAD. 



The mechanism of our No. 1 portable Garden Engine is simple, but of the highest order. It works easily, 

 possessing all .the advantages and embracing the latest improvements in Garden Engines. It will throw a con- 

 tinuous stream of water 40 feet, being the greatest distance which has yet been attained by this class of Engine, so 

 that the maximum of work may be obtained with the minimum of labour. The Engine will draw water through 

 a f-inch suction-hose from a distance of 60 feet, so that with the end of the pipe placed in a well, pond, or 

 stream, a large quantity of water may soon be distributed over the garden, or used for extinguishing fires in 

 dwelling-houses or farmyards. The value of this Engine" can, hardly be over-estimated for washing fruit-trees,

standard roses, syringing the conservatory, and cleansing windows. On hop-farms it will be of great service for 

 cleansing the hops, or syringing them with tobacco- water. We have added a stuffing-box to prevent the escape 

 of water at the handle, and have placed the waste-pipe on the off-side, so that the operator may work a whole 

 day without wetting himself — a matter of considerable importance. An angle-joint, similar to that used in con- 

 nection with our Syringe, can be applied for syringing plants from beneath, or in other positions not in a straight 

 line from the operator. The Engine is supplied, at the price quoted, with a f-inch two-feet suction hose and 

 strainer, and a discharge-pipe of the same diameter and length, including a jet and two roses. We may 

 remark that the Engine, from its superior fittings and workmanship, does not readily get out of repair, and when 

 it does so it is very easily put into working order again. Price 50s - . Extra hose, is. 2d. per foot run. 



No. 2.— TO BE WORKED BY A LADY OR A BOY. 

 The construction of this Engine is in all respects the same as No. 1 , but with a shorter piston and smaller 

 barrel. It will throw a continuous stream of water 30 feet, and is worked* with great ease. To lady gardeners 



and amateurs it is a boon. Price 42;.

It'would hardly be possible to over-estimate 

 the value of Mr. Brebaut's scissors. They are 

 light, and do their work better than any English 

 or French scissors which have yet been intro- 

 duced 1 ; cutting as clean as a knife, and the curve 

 in the blades prevents the possibility of cutting 

 more than is intended. To the amateur they 

 are invaluable, while to the gardener they are a 

 necessity. They are of various sizes, and we 

 recommend the Rose Scissors to ladies, being 

 the lightest. 



The Selby Flower Gatherer. 

 It would be impossible to say too much in favour of 

 the Selby Flower Gatherer. In its construction, the 

 spring guide follows the action of the scissors, and 

 thereby infallibly secures hold of what the scissors 

 cut. 5/6 each.
