FORCING AND LIFTING PUMP.

TNIiISPUMP has advantages over any other
Il in use in several particulars. Its action
is such that the water is constantly rushing
forward il 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 Il cylinder of the same ca
pacity than by those where the water is first
drawn into the cylinder. and then suddenly
reacted and forced ont, a difference about as
great as that beiuten feeping uugon, heariiy
loaded, in motion ,chen started, aud stopping and
starting erery rod. 1t is more simple in It's
arrangement. There are but too raires in
the Pump, both Of which are connected with
pistons, which, together with the valves, may
be easily removed and repaired by any one
who can turn a screw or cut piece ofleather
to given shape; thus II will be seen that we
have Il Double-Acting Forcing and Lifting
Pump, with no more machinery or liability to
get out of orler than the Single-Acting Lift
ing Pump. Another great advantage Of this
Pump is, that the pstons are always under
water, by its popularity of action, anG no
air can consequently pass them; it does not
depend on stuiling 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 bot
motions Of the rod, whether the top Of the
cylinder is open or not, it is thereiorche
superior Doublc-Acting Lifting as well
Forcing Pump. Allexperience has shown
the great difficulty Of keeping either stufIing
boxes or pistons, which arc constantly wear
ing, so tight as to prevent the admission OF
air, and il is well known that leak which
will not let out water enough to injure the
action of the Pump, will let in air enough
to destroy it. 1t may, therefore, be laid
