a power sprayer during the past year
made by the Hardie Manufacturing
Company. The rig is guaranteed to
maintain a pressure OF 200 pounds
when using one lead of hose and a
large nozzle. On several occasions
two leads of hose we're used and two
large MOBILES with very little notice
able difference in pressure. | have
also used sprayer very similar in
size and efficiency manufactured by
the Bean Spray Pump Company.
Both OF these machines. though too
small for large orchards, will give ex-
cellent satisfaction to the growers Of
Western Washington. They are light,
durable, cheap and reliable. 1t is
not my purpose to advocate the use
of one make of sprayer over another
but it is my desire to advise the
readers of these columns to the best
of my knowledge and if possible aid
them in securing the most practicable
spraying outfit for their use. Besides
the two makes of small power spray
ers mentioned, are the makes of other
sprayer companies. Some of these
companies are as follows:
American Sprayer Company, Min
neapolis, MINI.
Barnes Manufacturing Company,
Mansfield, Ohio.

While spraying has not been gen.
eral practice in many Of the orchards
of Western Washington in the past,
it is becoming more so each year.
Many of the old home orchards are
being cut out Or "cleaned up' and a
demand for spraying machinery is
increasing.
"What kind of sprayer is best for
nv orchard?" is question that often
comes to me.
The selection of spryer is much
like the selection of other farm ma
chinery. Several things are to be
considered, such as the size of the
orchard, amount of money that can
be expended and the amount of work
for gasoline engine on the farm.
HAND SPRAYERS.
The man with only few trees would
not care to invest two or three hun
dred dollars in power sprayer and
he would hardly be justified in doing
it. A good barrel sprayer or tank
pump would serve his purpose very
we'll with considerable less expense.
BARREL PUMPS.
Barrel pumps fitted with good hose
and nozzles will discharge 30 to 60
gallons of spray per hour at pres
sure of rs to 100 pounds. One lead
of hose and a single large nozzle can
be successfully used with such a
pump. Pumps of this type are !:

Spraying Machinery and Accessories

Such sprayers usually sell at from $40
to $50 complete with hose, nozzle and
extension rod.

TANK PUMPS.

AANA L " I'LL
Tank pumps will give greater pres
sure and discharge more spray in
given time than barrel sprayers.
These pumps are So constructed that
the handle is operated with forward
and backward stroke instead of an
up and down stroke as in the barrel
pumps. Tank pumps are usually not
provided with agitators and the spray
must be kept stirred in the spray
tank by hand. The Bean, Friend,
Deming, Gould, Myers, Morrill, and
Morley, and Hardie companies all
have satisfactory tank pumps.
POWER sPRAYERs.
Some growers are trying to make a
barrel sprayer do the work of pow
er machine. The grower with 200 or
more fruit trees to spray, wood to
cut and feed to grind. will often find
it economy to invest in a power
sprayer with a gasoline engine that
can do all Of such work. Some
sprayers are SO built that by means Of
an extra belt and pulley the engine
may be used to furnish power for
much of the heavy work about the
farm.
Besides being suitable to the or
chard or farm, the sprayer should be
efficient. It's efficiency depends upon
the construction and assembling of
the important working parts. The
engine and pump of power sprayer
should be as simple as possible with
accessible parts so that they may be
easily repaired and cleaned. They
should both be made of strong and
durable material but not heavy
enough to be cumbersome.
In choosing an engine for a sprayer
the grower cares very little whether
it is of the. upright or horizontal
type; if it isa two-cycle or four-cycle
engine He does, however, want an
engine that is easy to start, easy to
operate, and one that is dependable
under ali kinds of field conditions.
He wants to start it and know that
it will run. He cannot afford to buy
an engine that will require all of his
time or the time of one of his men to
keep it working. Capacity is an i'm
portant factor in an engine. While
it is not best to have an engine so
large that it is cumbersome compared
with the rest of the rig, it is better
to have it with a greater capacity
than is necessary, than less. An
overworked engine like an overworked
animal becomes weak and not depend
able. The pump of power sprayer
should have all the good qualities of
the engine. 1t should be light in
weight, simple in construction and
durable. In general a duplex or
triplex type of pump is considered
most desirable for this work. There
are, however, on the market, power
sprayers with one-horse power en-
gines, single cylinder, double acting
pump and 100 gallon tank that do ex-
cellent work. One good strong horse
can easily pull such rig and with
one lead of hose, one man can easily

If a complete fertilizer gives the

It is therefore not a question of

We sell every kind of fertilizer
animal, chemical and complete;
but strongly advise the use of
Lilly's complete fertilizers because
they are scientifically correct in
proportion, thoroughly ground to-
gether and mixed by machinery.
It is the use of such complete
fertilizers that results in increased
crop production, better texture,
larger size, finer quality, richer
color and longer keeping quality
in grains, fruits and vegetables.

COTTON SELECTION.

The so-called running out" of va
rieties OF cotton is largely due to the
neglect of the grower in selecting his
seed. Continued selection is neces-
sary to maintain the uniformity and
productiveness of any variety OF cot
ton. but the methods OF selection Used
In the past were such as to require SO
much time and technical, skill as to
be impractical for the farmer. ir, 80
Simpler and more effective methods
have been developed and explained in
a circular entitled Cotton Selection
on the Farm by the Characters of the
Stalks. Leaves and Bolls." This is
supplied fres of charge by the bureau
os plant industry at Washington to in
terested growers. " ~ y
Farmers who will limit themselves
to the growing of one kind of cotton
and take the necessary precautions to
preserve the stock and avoid admix-
ture with other varities, can produce
better seed than they can buy through
any OF the existing commercial chan
nels. They can not only increase
their own crops but gein additional
profits by selling seed to their neigh
bors. The demand for better seed is
now very general and represents an
important opportunity for the more
intelligent farmers of each community.
