One Horse Duster Most Satisfactory for Dusting
State College of Agriculture notes several calcium arsenate dusting machines for cotton. The one horse two row duster is most satisfactory for many cases, dusting two rows with a rider, capable of 10 to 20 acres per night and 25 to 50 per season, priced around 125 dollars. Two horse cart machines offer better distribution at 250 to 400 dollars, dusting three rows and handling 50 to 100 acres annually, with the operator riding. Mule back duster provides less satisfactory distribution.
