SPRAYING PUMPS.
It does pay to spray; there can be no question as to it, as thousands of experiments in all parts of the country have proven, and it seems to be the only effective method of destroying insects, and fungus growth like rot and mildew.
SPRAYING PUMP No. 2.--Is constructed on the most approved plan. It is double acting, so that it will throw a continuous stream. It has a patent submerged cylinder, expansion rubber bucket and a large air chamber to cushion the stroke. It is provided with two discharge ports, one or both of which can be used for spraying. The base is properly shaped to fasten either to the staves or head of barrel. As will be noticed it has a strong leverage, so that it is easy to operate and will throw a solid stream 60 feet from the nozzle, or will throw a spray fine as mist over an ordinary fruit tree. It has steel pins, brass plunger cylinder and brass-lined lower cylinder. There is a strainer on the suction pipe and a good agitator beside the suction pipe which keeps the spraying mixture thoroughly and constantly stirred. With this outfit there is sent two five-foot lengths of hose and two spraying nozzles of the best pattern. It is all complete as shown in cut, except the barrel (we do not furnish barrels with any of the pumps). Price, $11.50.

SPRAYING PUMP No. 1.--Exactly like above, except that it has only one length of hose and one nozzle. Price, $10.00.

It has also an agitator to keep the solution thoroughly stirred. Price very low, $5.00.
SPRAYING PUMP No. 4.--A cheap pump, spray or solid stream. We sell a great many of these for spraying fruit plants, washing windows, etc., and they give good satisfaction. Price, $1.50.
