Methyl Bromide Opener
Date:
|
Identifier: Tobacco Farm Life Museum
During the early twentieth century, farmers began using chemicals, including methyl bromide, to clear their seed beds. This opener used a simple clamping mechanism. Inside the aluminum ring is a sharpened tube that punctured the seal of a bromide canister. The tube seen on the outside hooked directly into a hand-held sprayer. $http://digital.lib.ecu.edu/historyfiction/artifact.aspx?id=taa more...
