To all whom it may concern: 7

Be it known that I, WENZEL J .SCHERF, a citizen of the United States, residing at Manitowoc, in the county of Manitowoc and State of Wisconsin, have invented a new and useful F umigating-Container, of which the V vention by the device shown in the accom- 'panying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional'view' of the device;

Fig. 2 is a top plan ofsame; and

Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of members 14:, 15, 16 and 17 V Like numerals designate like parts in each of the views. I

Referring to the drawings, I provide a container 1 of suitable material, preferably aluminum, and which may be of any suitable shape, either round as shown or shaped like a watch. In'the'upper portion of container 1 is a filling opening 2 covered by a cap' 3. I provide container ,1 with an elongated neck 4 extending well into the body of the container. Mounted on the lower portion of neck 4: is a fine screen 13. Spaced above screen '13, I provide a suitable wire ring 15 having a loop l l'extending into the center of the ring and slidably engaging the vertical extending wire 17, the upper portion of which is bent to form the upper ring 14, as shown in Fig. 3. A suitable spring 16 is attached to the ring 15 and tends to draw it toward ringl l, Positioned between rings 7 14 and 15,1 provide suitable Specification of Letters Patent.

absorbent material 19, preferably twisted yarn, as illustrated in Fig. 1. Removably mounted on the neck 41, I provide a cap 5 having a suitable top. 6 provided withper forat10ns'7. Rotatably mounted on the top portion 6 of cap 5 by means of pivot 8,1

provide a cover 9, which is provided with perforations 10 positioned to aline with perforations 7 when the cover is adjusted for allowing the'fumes of the fumigating liquid within container 1 to escape. v Members 6 and 9 may be either flat as shown, or preferably of acorn shape; and member 9 is provided with any suitable means for rotating same, such as the small tongues 11. I may provide a cork 12 which may be inserted in the neck 4 of the container when it is not being used. The considerable amount ofabsorbent material contained between members 14 and 15 in the extended neck 4: prevents any leakage of the fumigating liquid in case the device is overturned.

What I claim is A. fumigating container having a body portion, means for admitting aliquid into Patented A11 31, 192 0.
