RETAIL PRICE-LIST FOR 1884. 
HAMMOND’S SLUG SHOT. 
Tills Is, perhaps, the most valuable Insecticide ever offered to Farmers and Gar- 
deners. In substance it is an impalpable powder containing poison destructive to 
potato bugs, rose bugs, cut worms, and fatal to insect life in every form in which they 
are injurious to vegetation; at the same time the ill effects of Paris Green to the foli- 
age ot plants, as well as danger from having it around in quantities, are obviated, 
ihe powder is applied with bellows, fine sieve, or dusters, made for the purpose. 
Price, In Perforated Tin Boxes, for small plants, 30 cents each. 
In 5 lb. packages, 30 cts. ; 10 1b. packages, 50 cts. ; in Barrels, 4 cts. per lb. 
GARDEN BELLOWS. 
For applying Sulphur, Hellebore, or other powders to vines, bushes, and other 
plants tor the extermination of insects, this implement has no superior. With it the 
powder is blown with great rapidity, and without waste, into and over every portion 
ot the plant, accomplishing a great amount of labor in a verv short time. The imported 
French (with tin receiver) are strongly made, and the best in use. Their cost is more 
than saved the first year of use. 
Price, S3. 00. 
GARDEN TROWELS. 
Of this indispensable garden implement, we offer 
the best quality manufactured; cast steel blades, 
with shanks that extend the whole length of the 
handle and firmly riveted in, so that they cannot 
turn or become loose in the handle — a fault common with some, but not to be endured. 
4 Sizes. 5 inch. 6 inch. 7 inch. 8 inch. 
Prices. 20 cents. 25 cents. 30 cents. 35 cents. 
NOYES’ HAND WEEDER. 
This is one of the best implements ever invented 
for assisting where hand weeding is required — 
light, safe, and remarkably easy to use. Two pat- 
terns are manufactured : one diamond-shaped, with 
pointed end; the other with a square end for work- 
ing in very narrow rows, where the height of the plant necessitates a drawing stroke. 
Price, 30 cents each. Per dozen, $3.00. 
EXCELSIOR WEEDER. 
A very useful implement for eradicating weeds 
when first starting into growth, but more especially 
useful (in our experience) for loosening the soli in 
borders and beds where a larger tool could not be used. 
Price, 00 cents each. Per dozen, 180.00. 
FIRE-FLY 
HAND PLOW. 
This is another extremely useful little 
implement. Every person having a gar- 
den to care for (particularly those too 
small to admit of horse culture) should 
own one. The moldboard is made of steel, 
wearing bright and clean, and makes as 
perfect work for its size as an ordinary 
plow. With it ground can be wholly and 
thoroughly turned over, or furrows for 
planting made; and for after-weeding it 
can be most successfully used, turning the 
ftirrows outward at one time and inward 
the next, and so on. Having thoroughly 
tested one ourselves, we are free to say 
that the quality of the work done by this 
little tool is surprising. 
Price, $3.00.
