I like to tell my customers that “with Brea Aqua you don’t lift anything heavier than the end of a two-inch hose I* e e e OUR DRILL APPLICATION RIGS are doing a nice Job for customers these days, and naturally we are well equipped and ready to handle more customer acreage. Things are happening so fast in the fertilizer busi ness that I know we can save you money and do a better job if you will let us bid on your nitrogen needs. e e e GROWERS WHO OPERATE their own ap plication equipment have found that "One- Man-Handling“ per tractor, with Brea’Aqua’, toon pays the cost of changeover. With high speed transfer pumps to refill applicator tanks in a few minutes, it no longer takes two men to keep a rig rolling.
