STAHL’S EXCELSIOR SPRAYER XO. 7 . 
It is adapted for throwing liquid solutions of all kinds to destroy noxious insect and fungous growth of every nature on plant, tree, or 
vine. For washing windows and carriages, and showering gardens, it has no superior. In fact, in a diminished degree, it is capable of every 
use of an ordinary force-pump. It is always ready for use, and not liable to get out of order. It will throw water at the rate of eight to ten 
gallons per minute to a height of forty feet or more. With each pump is sent suction and discharge hose, connected, so that it requires no 
labor to put in immediate operation. Longer lengths of hose can be furnished if desired, for any outfit, at 15 cts. per foot. 
Price, with three feet of suction and three feet of discharge hose, brass discharge-pipe and rose sprinkler, $7.00, per express.

A NEW HAND SEED SOWER. 
There are probably not two men in our big country who are 
thoroughly agreed as to the quantity of grass seeds, clovers, etc., 
which should be sown per acre; and should they agree as to the 
quantity, the probabilities are 
/ Jilv tliat neither one of them

A. so we come to their aid with

TMT $25.00 5QtMSH! 
Last season we offered $25.00 in gold to any one who would send 
us seed of the original Marrow Squash in its original purity and 
quality. Several lots were sent us by enterprising farmers. Singular 
to say, two of the lots proved to tie varieties of pumpkins. One of 
the lots, however, was the original Marrow in all its original puritv; 
b V t 'X? exceedingly regret that the location and season so affected its 
growth that the squashes did not get fully ripe, and hence we were 
unable to determine whether or not it retained the quality of the 
original stock. As we expect sufficient seed from the farmer friend 
who supplied it to enable, us to give it another trial, we hope by 
another season to be able to inform our patrons that we have dis- 
coveted that famous squash with ail its original purity and quality.
