Insecticide Duster

1980.0075

This hand-cranked dusting device was worn by the farmer while working in garden plots or small areas of field crops, to treat broad leafed plants such as potatoes. The long nozzle could be directed under the bottom side of the leaves to blow insecticide where the pests were hiding.
