First power spraying apparatus used in gypsy moth control operations. An upright steam boiler was used in operating the pump to develop pressure required in spraying. The insecticide solution was transported in a horsedrawn watering cart connected by hose to the pump. A small tank containing water for the steam boiler was hauled on a low truck at the rear of the unit. This apparatus was used before 1900. Melrose Highlands, Mass. |
