as rain.’’ It spreads life-giving moisture like 
gentle rain, uniformly over a circular area 80 
ft. in diameter, or it can easily be adjusted to 
cover any smaller plot. This sprinkler is so 
designed that the pressure of water through 
the nozzle turns an aluminum wheel at a high 
rate of speed. This wheel in turn rotates the 
entire sprinkler head. Wings on the wheel 
break up the stream of water into rain-like 
drops. As the sprinkler rotates, the soil at any 
given point is watered at intervals; the inter- 
vening time allows for absorption without soil 
washing. This famous Double Rotary Sprin- 
kler is constructed of the finest materials, is 
self-operating, and will give years of trouble- 
free service. $12.50
