“ Aeroil” No. 99 Weed Burner 
CONQUER THE WEED MENACE by this New Modern Way. Surest, Safest, 
Most Economical Method of Weed Eradication Yet Devised. Used and 
Endorsed by United States Forest Service, National Park Service and 
Over 100 Colleges and Experiment Stations. 
Successful Gardeners and Horticulturists have found after trying all other 
methods that the AEROIU WEED BURNER is not only the most efficient, 
hut the most economical as well. The AEROIL WEED BURNER works 
on the same principle as a plumber’s blow torch. The fuel used is 
Kerosene, Coal Oil, Range Oil, Stove Oil or Light Furnace Oil. The 
Kerosene vapor and air are combined in the burner in correct proportion 
for perfect combustion, (94% air, 6% kerosene), 
producing a powerful, reddish-blue flame, 3 inches 
in diameter, 30 inches long, — of intense heat, 2000 
- F. The size of the flame is easily controlled by a 
regulating valve. 
Sfeii 
SAFE, VERY ECONOMICAL. Anyone can operate an AEROIL WEED BURNER. 
It is ABSOLUTELY SAFE! The powerful heat generated is under absolute control at all 
times. VERY ECONOMICAL to operate, as the average oil consumption is only U/ 2 gals, 
per hour. Rigidly constructed, will last indefinitely. So light, compact and portable that 
it is easy to carry around, for the convenient web shoulder strap distributes the weight 
evenly. 
The old method of cutting, mowing, raking, hauling and then burning weeds is obsolete. 
With an AEROIL WEED BURNER you can destroy all weeds where they stand — on the 
stalk, green — seeds and all. This is accomplished most rapidly by spraying or blighting 
the weeds with the flame in a rapid, walking application. This causes the weeds to dry up, 
wither and die. and should be followed several days later with another application when 
the dried out weeds can be quickly burned to ashes. By burning when the weeds are green, 
you eliminate the dangers of creeping fires or of bonfires made of dry weeds or brush. 
Burning is quick, sure and relatively inexpensive. 
One man with an AEROIL WEED BURNER can destroy more weeds than five men with 
scythes or cutter bars and make a cleaner and better job of it because he not only destroys 
the weeds but kills the roots as uiell as the seeds. 
Besides being a most effective Weed Burner, this tool can he used all the year round fot 
101 other burning, heating and thawing operations. Over 50,000 Aeroil Burners are in use 
and giving satisfaction.
