THESE pumps have now been in general
l. use number of years, and give better
satisfaction than any other, and are recon-
mended as
THE BEST!
BY Capt. Ericsson, and other eminent Engineers
We can refer to Thousands using them, and
guarantee that all viii recommend them
They are more simple in construction, and
work easier, and cost less than all others
| "Our readers will find the double acting i'm
proved Pump of ]. D. West 4 Co., one of the
best in the market. Il is very simple, works to
a charm, SO that any child may use it; throws
steady, continuous stream, and does not
freeze in the coolest exposures, and is unusually
cheap. We say this knowingly. and give the
| testimony Of our own accord, without the
knosledle or request of the propristors."-

This may certify that have been using, at
my mandatory, for the last four years,
"West's Improved Pumps" how have in
use three of said pumps, one Of which 10 kept
constantly at work, "a hours each day, (save
Sundavs) and has been running for the past
two years. pronounce them, uuhesitatingly,
the best pumps that have been brought to my
notice, having used many Others previously.
They are simple in their construction, and not
easily disarranged JAnEs A. WEsi.

J. D. WEST & Co.:
We are pleased to state that the Pumps We
had OF you, about year ago. have been In
constant use, - hours each day. and raise for
the use of our Wooden Factory, about 100
gallons per minute. They work with but little
power, compared with pumps wo Rave used
before, and do not get out Of repair, and are
satisfactory in all respects. Yours, &C.,

SoLos ROBINSON to the Farmers Club, Jan. %:
mo farmer who owns a well or cistern can
possibly afford to be without an iron pump. 1t
should be at once a suction and force pump
perfect little fire engine-such a one known as
Vests Improved Pump I speak of this
pump because l happen to know it -. to be
very simple, durable, powerful and cheap, and
it don't freeze up. nor get out of order once a
year =. l know this. and think may be doing
the farmers good by speaking of it. q. A boy
III years old can work it, and throw q continu-
Gus inch-and-a-quarter stream. :. . 1t can be
made to work in deep wells as we'll as in shall
low ones"
From the New York Observer.1
We have had in use for months past enc of
Vests Pumps, which has given rs more sat
isfaction as q force and lifting pump than any
We have ever used. 1t ID one of great power,
and well adapted for ships decks, mines. fac
tories, greenhouses, graperies, &C., &c. The
Mining Ghr0niela and oil
1t is recommended for its extreme simplicity
Of construction, groat strength, and conse-
quent durability and cheapness of repair
There is no stuffing box-the pressure being
held by cup packing, like that upon the
working piston, working in cylinder, fitted
for the purpose within the upper air chamber
which we think great improvement, as stufing
is so liable to be deranged, and leak under
strong pressure, to say nothing of the loss BY
friction incident thereto. 1t has also two air
chambers: thus the action of the valve is
cushioned upon both sides by air-prt venting
water hammer and vacuum thump. The valves
are very accessible, and simply and cheaply
repaired. They work much easier than any
pump We have ever seen; the 4 inch cylinder
being worked by children in wells 100 feet
deep, and as they are extremely cheap as well
as simple and strong, we freely recommend
them.
CT. NECK, L. l., 1860.
have used this pump for one summer and
winter, exposed to the North W est wind coming
over Long Island Sound, being the coolest
possible exposure, and at no time did it freeze.
nor were we unable at any time to pump water
with great ease. II. B. McILvAIN.
She undersigned, having to use "West's I'm
proved Pumps" cheerfully recommend them
as simple, durable and powerful in raising and
throwing water, and for their ease of action,
security against frost, and low price, We believe
them superior to all others.
