One Of the most unique and use
full in. onLions of the recent days is
that gotten out by w. John Schroeder
and K. l.. Gilstrap, Of Walhalla. They
nave received their patent on we'll
attachment. by means OF which one
bucket OF water Is drawn to the sur
race while the other bucket Is low
cred to the well. The mechanism,
very simple indeed, is so arranged
that the bucket of water being
drawn to the surface can be left at
will with no danger whatever, as
when the handle is released the
wheels are automatically locked, and
both buckets remain stationary until
the drawing is resumed. The device
IS not complicated in any sense, Is
sold at very reasonable price, and
is attachable to any we'll. The manu-
tacturers. Messrs. Schroeder &c Gil
strap, sell their machines for SO,
complete and attached to we'll box,
ready for service. They have been
placing number Of them and have
orders ahead. They have been re-
ceiving very fattering offers for State
rights on their invention, and one Of
fer has been received from parties in
Canada for the Canadian rights. SO
