have used them to be the greatest
screens ever built.
We have perfected and thoroughly
tried cut "LAYNE PATENT TURBINE
PUMPS WITH ENCLOSED DRIVE
SHAFT AND FULLY PROTECTED
BEARINGS" which have economical
capacities from 500 gallons per minute
to 1000 gallons per minute. In fact, we
are really prepared to equip each and
every we'll which we may drill with a
Pump OF suitable capacity to most
economically pump the we'll to its ca
paCity."
After having carefully noted the per-
Torrance of our over 400 complete
Layne Rice Irrigating Plants which we
have installed during the past eight
years in Louisiana Rice Belt, and with
the use of our Improved Screens and
Layne Patent Turbine Pumps with In
closed Drive Shaft and Protected Bear
ingS, we have found it feasible to raise
our guarantees approximately 300 gal
Ions per minute in localities which have
been developed. This puts us in po-
sitiOn to absolutely guarantee our
larger wells to produce as much as
$500 gallons of water per minute" -oI
no pay. Furthermore. we stand ready
to guarantee for a period of two full
pumping seasons, ALL WELLS that We
drill during this coming season.
For the past two years we have beer
working out series of improvement
in the Layne. Patent Pumps and have
been able to very greatly increase the'
efficiency aud capacities. After having
tried out these Pumps for a period 0
over sixteen months, we have foun'
them to more than meet with OH
