Abstract: A method and apparatus for applying agriculture seed/fertilizer mix and the like to the ground. A receptacle having an agitator and rotating blades are affixed to a housing containing a blowing motor. Agriculture seed/fertilizer mix is poured into the receptacle and blown out through a hose attached to an outlet port on the housing. A nozzle is attached to the end of the hose for effective and uniform application of the materials. A pressurized liquid supply is attached to the nozzle in order to moisten the material as it passes through the nozzle and out over the ground.

Abstract: A hopper cylindrical about a vertical axis has an agitator with blades rotating near the bottom of the hopper, not only to agitate insulation but also to move it through a hopper outlet opening into an airlock having a horizontal shaft and radially spaced blades. The vertical shaft for the hopper agitator and the horizontal airlock shaft are aligned so that one may be driven from the other, as by miter gears. A motor and reduction gearing may drive the airlock shaft, through a chain and sprocket connection, or the motor and reduction gearing may drive the hopper agitator shaft through a coupling. The blades of the airlock rotor may be individually removable through the airlock inlet, as in order to replace flexible wipers. Each airlock blade may have a flange at an obtuse angle such as 150.degree. which is bolted to one side of the multisided shaft by a series of cap bolts.
