DUSTERS 115 
American Beauty Duster 
The American Beauty 
is extensively used by 
the U. S. Department of 
Agriculture, many state 
universities and the 
governments of many 
foreign countries. It is 
small in size and cost, 
but large in work accom¬ 
plished. One man can 
dust trees up to 25 feet 
in height, and cover 3^ 
acres or more in a day 
and corresponding acre¬ 
ages in row crops. It is 
constructed of the finest 
materials and guaran¬ 
teed to be satisfactory. 
Weight 16 pounds. Holds 15 pounds of dust. Price $20, 
paid $20.30. 
Peerless Dust Gun 
structed of first-class material and is built for 
service. The Gun is adaptable for dusting trees, one-row dusting, 
two-row dusting, dusting underneath foliage, and also dusting in 
burrows. 
The Gun is balanced; the hopper containing the dust hangs on 
the back, while the fan hangs to the front. The 5-blade fan is 
made in one piece and fastened to a shaft mounted with ball 
bearings which are continually lubricated with grease. The 
gears are cut in steel and brass, opposite metals working together, 
and were designed for power and service. The gear ratio is 
43 to 1. With ordinary turning, the fan shaft will develop a 
speed of 1,800 revolutions per minute. The flow of dust can be 
readily changed to produce a light mist or a dense fog-like cloud. 
The capacity of the hopper is 9^2 pounds of lime. Price, com¬ 
plete $20, postpaid $20.35. 
Platz Green Double-Action 
Duster 
Fits the back snugly, with a strap over 
each shoulder. Through the elimination of 
gears, practically no muscular effort is re¬ 
quired to operate the Duster and obtain the 
most efficient results. The 44-inch dis¬ 
charge pipe, with its adjustable spreader, is 
sufficiently long to dust the underneath side 
close to the ground, as well as to throw a 
cloud of dust 20 feet in the air. Its large 
carrying capacity eliminates loss of time in 
repeated fillings. The agitator will thor¬ 
oughly crush sulphur, and works perfectly 
with all standard dusting materials. Regu¬ 
lator is easily adjusted, and may be set for 
a light or heavy application. The 
double bellows insures a steady flow 
of dust, and is better adapted for 
dusting a denser growth of foliage. 
Weight 17 pounds. Capacity 20 to 30 
pounds. Price $22.

tinuous flow of dust and still be

row crops, such as potatoes, 
peas, beans, cabbage, etc. There
