We are having trouble with some

spider, but so minute that it cannot be 
seen by the naked eye, and we are 
not quite so sure whether that is the 
real cause or not, but it may have 
come to your notice through other 
cemetery associations, they having 
suffered from the same cause.

^Success of Demin^ Power Sprayers 
on Public and Private Grounds 
The sprayers used on low-growing fruit trees are often not suitable for tall trees; 
^ there is, therefore, a great demand for a more powerful and efficient machine, and 
^ hence the favor with which Deming Power Sprayers have been received. 
Made of best material, substantial and durable; engine and pump are 
mounted rigidly together, preventing lost motion and permitting higher ^ 
pressure. They have large air-chambers. 
We shall be pleased to furnish particulars, including blue- 
prints. specifications and estimates. We make pumps for 
all uses — distributing agencies in principal cities.
