FORCING AND LIFTING PUMP.

"IllS PUMP has advantages over any other
l. in use in several particulars. Its action
is such that the water is constantly rushing
forward III the same direction, without re-
action in the cylinder, whether the piston
rod moves up or down, by which great
| amount Of powcris saved, and more water
passed through II cylinder of the same ca
pacity than by those where the water is frs,
drawn into the cylinder. and then suddenly
reacted and forced out, difference about as
great as that befceen keeping a wagon, hearil
'oaded, in motion when started, aud stopping and
surfing erery rod Ii is more simple in its
arrangement. There are but tuo ralres in
the Pump, both Of which are connected with
pistons, which, together with the valves, NAV
be easily removed al repaired by any one
who can turn screw or cut piece of leather
to given Shape; thus il will be seen that we
have Doublc-Actng Forcing and Lifting
Pump, with no more machinery or liability to
get out of order than the Single Acting Lift
| ing Pump. Another great advantage Of thi.
Pump is, that the piStuns arc always under
water, by its popularity of action, and no
air can consequently pass them; it does not
depend on stufing box to form a vacuum
either way, for though one is used in the
forcing form in this Pump, the pressure is
always outward, and the air can be no pos
| sibility go in, and it will raise water at both
motions of the rod, whether the top of the
cylinder is open or not, it is therefore a
| superior Double-Acting Lifting as well as
Forcing Pump. All experience has shown
the great difficulty Of keeping either stuffing
boxes or pistons, which are constantly wear
ing, SO tight az to prevent the admission of
air, and it is well known that a leak which
will not let out water enough to injurc the
action of the Pump, will let in air enough
to destroy it. 1t may, therefore, be laid
down as Il fixed rule that all Pumps, icpen-
dent for their action on stutling boxes, or on
pistons or plungers exposed to the air, are,
from this very arrangement, liable to get ont
of order; all of these difficulties are entirely
removed from the one we now have the
pleasure Of offering to the public. For sale
