 Steam Dredge. 
 
 THE cut on page 2 rippresehts our Improved Standard r)rcdgt's, which we 
 malce in several sizes, with SioRlje or Double Cylinder Ivngines. The 
 HoistitjK and'other Drums are made to be driven by Solid Clutches or 
 Friction Clutches, as desired. The Swinging Clear is driven from Main En- 
 gine or by Independent Swinging Engines as [ireferred. The Anchor Hoist- 
 ing Machinery is of the latest pattern and driven by Frirtion Clutches ; it is 
 so arranged that not only can the anchors be raised by stepm biit the Dredge 
 ca^ also be pinned up pn the Bow Anchors by steam, which saves much time 
 Overvthe old way of swinging the Crane first to one side and then to the 
 other. The Stern Anchor is of the .Trailing tyi)e and is left on the bottom 
 while moving and pinning up, thtis keeping thp Dredge in place until the 
 Bow Anchors are dropped, when it is raised and brought to its place and 
 dropped. There is also a Hand-hoisting Attachment on each Anchor. 
 
 The Crane is made extra strong with all the latest improvements. Boil- 
 ers are of the Return F"lue style and of large capacity, made of best steel 
 plates. Racks and Pinions are of steel. Cligins are ^dges' Best Best Crane ; 
 and all castings are made of best brands of iron carefully selected and mixed 
 to give the greatest strengthi an d in fact all materials and workmanship are 
 of Hie best quality. / -■ /~~~~^ — ^^—--JL

 THE cut on page 4 represents our Standard Steam Derricks. They can be 
 ' used, either with Dump Box or Clam Shell Bucket, for taking the earth 
 from a Dredge ; also, for hoisting rock and swinging it back and deposit- 
 ing it from 50 to 200 feet from the place it is taken out of, in cuts on either 
 Railways, Canals or Quarries. We make these in several sizes With Double 
 Cylinder Engines — Drums driven by either Solid Clutches or Friction Clut- 
 ches. 
 
 The Boiler is of the locomotive type, made of best steel plates. The 
 whole is mounted on heavy Oajc Frame with extra strong wheels and axles 
 and connected by endless chain and gearing to the engine so as to be moved 
 by steam. Castings are mAde of best brands of iron, carefully selected alid 
 mixed to give the greatest strength, and all m^^terials pd workmanship are of 
 best quality. ' ■' '^:'- -'^ .:-::, \..^- :,:>.''■;: .,;. ■;■'/: ,'';

 THE cut on |jage 5 represeflts^, T. Stock's Patent Railroaa^ Excavator, 
 ' known as the Victor Excavat«)r, which secured the (lold Medal (the 
 " highest premium) at the National Exposition of Railway Appliance's, held 
 in Chicago, } une, 1 883. It was there subjected to a thorough exaniina- 
 tibn by a careful and competent committee of expert railroad men, who were 
 selected es|)ecially for the Exhibition. .'I'he Car of Excavator is 31 feotlonjfeiK^ 
 10 feet wide, and ifio^ted on 8 wheels. The lrame_of car and house is made 
 of Iron Channels and Beams,'and is put together so as tf> iiKike a very strong 
 and ..durable machine.' The mdin Engine is horizontal, with two cylinders, 
 has reversing gear, apd is^only used for hoisting thetlip|)<rUnd. moving car. *~ , 
 The Hoisting Drum is driven by a Steam Friction Clutch that can be thrown 
 ir^ or out witb engine running at full s|)eed, or with fuhspower on in digging ; 
 it is operated by a steam cylinder which makes Jt much Cosier for the runner 
 and enables him tp operate faster.^ -^ * 
 
 The swinging -is done oy two independent Steam Cylinders connected^' 
 direct to the Turntable chains without the intervention of any shafts or gears, 
 making it tWe simplest and quickest arrangement in use. The Forcing En- 
 gines on X^rarie have two cylinders and a very simple reversing attachnfent— 
 with them the! dipper can be run o\it or-Jn-as may be required, either in dig- 
 ging or in getl|ng, into'^ the right position over a car to dump load. 
 
 The Mas^ is of a. new pattern, .being a hollow steel casting so the hoist- 
 ing chain can pass in at the top, down through it and out At .the bottom, which 
 obviates the necessity of 'having a hole through the side for chain to pass but 
 of, thus making a mast that cannot break, as t|ie cast-iron ones with* hole in 
 the side that are u.sed by other makers da 
 
 Tbe Crane and Turntable are of iron substantially fattehed together and 
 braced' so' as to make it extra strong. . The^rane is arranged so that it can 
 be 'lowered- down level on top in a few minutes; this improvement, with ttie 
 Adjustable Jack Arms thalTcan be disconnected in a few minutes, enables the 
 Victor Excavator to he made read^'for moving any where that an orSlinary . 
 passenger car will go— through ti|nnels o^ under bridges — and upon arriving 
 at destinatipn can be got ready for w^rk in. the same time it took to get ready 
 
 for moving. . , ° „

 'We use Steel Racks and Pinions on the Dipper Handle ; Edges' Best . 
 Best Cran6 Chains foi; hoisting and swinging. 
 
 The Boiler is large and of ample capacity to steam easy, made of best 
 Steel Plates. , 
 
 There is a large Water Tank under, the car and out of the way, that holds . 
 enough to supply the boiler for half a day. ^ 
 
 Witli all the improvements embodied^n this machine it is considered the 
 best Ei^cavator made, dnd it will do the largest amount of work at the least 
 ex^pense. - * -

 used on either end of car. It Will^riye piles 16 ft. ahead of track, 16 ft on 
 either side of centre of track, or at alny point within 16 ft. Vailius. It has our 
 Double Cylinder Hoisting Engine with- Patent FrictiovDrum for Hoisting the Hammer, 
 and Spool on end of drum shaft for raising the pile, '^he han,mer line is made fast to 
 the hammer and goes^witWit, which enables it £$ strike fully three blows for one that 
 can be done" where the old style of a clutch drum a]|d nippers are used, and also doing 
 away with an expensive and dangerous device. The hammer drum is provided with a 
 Ratchet and Pawl for holding the. hammer in any position required while the pile is be- 
 ing raised and got into place for receiving the blow. 
 
 The machinery iajplaced upon a strong Bridge. Frame Work of Channel Iron, and 
 is moved from centre to either end upon fixed rollers where it can be turned to any _ 
 ' position upon turntable and clamped' to oar while being i^sed. The Leaders can be low- - 
 ered into position shown on page 8, and being balanced by placing the hammer about A 
 ft. from lower end of Leaden ; caoL^ easily handled by two nien and done in a few 
 minutes, and can then be run anywhere in a freight train. There is a Water Tank nn-

 Hoisting Engines. 
 
 L. 
 
 ^ UR Improved Patent Friction Drum Hoistins Engines, as represented on the fol- 
 lowing pages, are of the latest design, in which are embraced all the iniprdve- 
 nients that experience has proved to be the beat for this class of niaohih^ry. 
 They are simple^n design and construction and are properly proportioned through^ 
 , out to secure .the best results. "Bhey are economical, durable and effectivtt, and 
 '. '/ will be found to give satisfaction to every' one. 
 
 t : Our Improved Patent Friction Drums are a decided improvement and far superior 
 
 / to the old style Clutch Drum, and also to niianiy other Friction Drums. They are qt^iek 
 
 / in operation, easy to handle on all l^nds of work, and will do a larger amount of it, and 
 
 in a more satisfactory manner. TKey will stand a large amount of hard work without \ 
 perc<B|itibl9 wtiar, »nd therefore Will not require continual'repairing, which is not only \. 
 expensive but causes delay and annoyance. 
 
 The friction is of the cone style, and is composed of the hardest kind of wood, well : 
 
 . % seasoned and placed endwise of the grain to the wear, .which engages with a smooth 
 
 iron surface and will last for years if properly taken care of. The drum runs loose on 
 
 shaft and is thrown in gear by a sligh^end motion which is effected by a lever and screw, 
 
 the power of this i; such thait a very^Bht pi«Ssure will hold the drum in gear against 
 
 -^any lond the engine caa hoist. We flll^ ail drums plain unless ordered gnioved. ' 
 
 '. FOI^ PILE DRIVING. ' 
 
 , These druills are well aidapted, for by their use at le<|,st tifty per ceqt more piles can l>e 
 
 • . driven than by any Clutch' Drum. The rope being made fast to the hammer so that 
 
 u'hen operating the hammer is raised as high as required, the drum released when the 
 
 hammer drops, overhauling the rope off the drum, yhich runs so free that the full weight 
 
 w "of blow is delivered on the pile. It, will be seen that blows from any height can be given 
 
 ^: without a moment's delay, thus driving light or heavy as re(|uircd, while with the 
 
 . Clutch Drum it is necessary to use nippers siid a man to attend them to release the 
 
 hammer at the right place. 
 
 . THE ENGINES 
 
 t Are of the horizontal type and all their parts are fitted for rapidity of action, duiiabil-^ ■* 
 ity, &c. The Bed Pl&tes and Drum Stands are heavy and substantial, an(l of forifS to 
 ' 'w ffive the mo«t strength. They are fitted on planed surfaces and fastened by ^umed IboUs 
 in reamed holes, bo that the parts cannot get loose and move out of pliteeXjdso, th«) 
 engines can be taken apart and ' put together a^ain in proper shape by any one with 
 ordinary iutelligende. The Cylinders are fitted with plain D Si^d'^ Vajves, wliicli ar« 
 the best for such work, and they are so proportioned with large-sieam and exhaust p«irts 
 that they will give the beft and most ettective distribution of sl^m, and are especially 
 designed for high speed, ^he (flinders are covered with wood and fitted with Russia 
 Iron casings. The cylinder drainage cocks are connected so as to be all opened and shut 
 aiitolultaneouslv by means of a lever that is pldced within easy reach of the Runner. The 
 
 ' piston and valve rods, crank and cross-head piiis and cranitshaft are of steel, connect- 
 ing rod boxes are of best bronse, journal bearings are lined with best anti-f fiction metal, 
 the crank wheel is counterbalanced to prevent vibration and balance, so far as passible, ', 
 the reciprocating parts. The Drums are cast in one piece and are made plain so that 
 either hemp or wire rope can be used. We also make them of different siKes from those 
 . eiven in tables when required. . The Drum Shafts are large so as to give ample strength 
 
 ^For any work they may have to do. The Gearing is of b«^t shape fur strength and wear, 
 
 ^running true and smooth. A Winch Head is placed on the ,eud nf drum shaft of each 
 enffine. The engines are provided with Throttle and Stop Valve, Cylinder Lubi-icators, 
 ' Oil Cups, Ac. 
 :,, u 1. THE BOILERS are lar^ie^d steam freely with ordinary fuel ; are made of the best 
 
 brands of Steel Plateis ; longitndinal seams, are double riveted, and are well made in all 
 respects. The Smoke Hoods are of cast iron and will last for years. The following fix- 
 tures are furnished : Pop Safety V^lve, Steam Gauge, Water Gauge, Gauge Cocks, Check . 
 
 v. Stop and Blow-off Valves, three VVay Exhaust Cock (so that can exhaust etther 
 inside the stack, to create strong draft, or outside as required). Smoke Stack, Grates, 
 
 ' Fire Ti^ht Ash Pa& with Itaunpers, Injector with Suction Hose, Fire Irons, and in fact 
 everything complete ao there need be no delay in getting to work. All boilers are fired 
 up and tested to 100 Iba. steam pressure, and engines run several hours before being 
 snipped, and are thoroughly inspected, thus ensuring their being in proper working con- 
 ditlon when shipped. Our Engine Castings are extra strong being made of best brands 
 ' . vof iron, and all materiids and workmanship are of best quaUty., 
 
 OUR PRICES are as low as is consistent with first-dsM work, and inclndes deliv- 
 ery free on board cars here in shipping order. They are subject to change without notice.

 THESE Engines are designed for boisuiW piirposes where Boilers are 
 dtready in place, or where an independent boiler i^used to run one or 
 more engines, or whefe it would not becdnvenient or possible to have 
 * boiler, steam being conveyed a distance to thcfmVin pipes.- Thtsys are well 
 
 adapted for use^^n long docks, as they can be pI^dMi ieit convenient jnten^Is 
 ttnd connected by one main pipe, and one or mor^ used^Ntequired. V This 
 arrangement is much superior to a long line of sH^tting, with independent 
 drams, as engines can be placed where most convenient ji^d the pipe^broufdit 
 to them. .

 nriHIS Engine U espvcially designe<l for Hoisting Coal »t a high rate of speed. It is 
 
 particularly adapted for unloading vessels and barges, or hoisting into high 
 
 ^ __ . pooketa where a high rate of speed is desired, and it will haridle more coal, and 
 
 . unlokd more vessels or barges than any other style of engine. The Friction 
 
 Drum is of our usual style only larger in diameter and is famished with a Foot Brake 
 
 for lowering the empty tubs. It is also well Itdapted for miningjir other purposes where 
 
 a oomparativelylight load is to be handled at a high rate of speed.

 Victor Excavator. 
 
 ,.. ~j 
 
 THE cut on pace's ^fcpres'eflts H. T. Stocky Patent Railroad ExcavatoA 
 known as ^the Viaor Excavator, which secured the (Jold .Medal (the' 
 highest prgmium) at the National Exposition of Railway Appliances, held 
 in,('hicago, June,' 1883. It was there subjected to a thorough examina- 
 tion by a careful and competent committee of tx|)eTt railrbad men, who were 
 selected es|)ecially for the Exhibition. .The Car of Excavator is 31 feetloiiKi _, 
 io feet wide, and mounted on 8 wheels. The frame_of car and house is rtiade 
 of Iron Channels and Beam^, and is put together so as to make a very strong 
 and durable machfne. The main. Engine i;s horizontal, 'with two cylinders, 
 has reversing gear, and is only used for hoisting the dip|)[er andjnoving car. 
 The Hoisting Drum is driven by « Steam Friction Clutch that cati bcihrown 
 in or out witb engine running at full s|)efcd, or with full power oivtO digging ; 
 it is'.opcraied by a steam cylinder which makes it much easier for the runner 
 and enables him to operate faster. ' . : ' 
 
 The swinging. IS ddne by two independent Steam Cylinders connected* 
 direct to the Turntable chains Witfiout the intervention of any shafts or. gears, 
 m^ing it t|ie: simplest and quickest arrangement in uscfi The Forcing En- 
 gines on jCranie have tw8 cylinders and a very simple reversing attachment— 
 with them the. dipper can 'be run b||it oi^an-as may be required, either in dig- 
 ging* or in getl|ng, into the right position over a car to dump load. . 
 
 The Mas^ is of a new pattern, being a hollow steel casting so the hoist- 
 ing chaiii can pass in at the top, doWn through it and out at the bottom, which 
 obviates the necessity of having a hole through the side for chain to pass out 
 of, thus making a mast, that cannot break, as the cast-iron ones with* hole in 
 the side that are used by other makers da • 
 
 The Crane and Turntable are of iron substantially fastened togetherand 
 braced so as to make<it extra strong. « The^rane is arranged, so thaf it can ' 
 , be lowered down level on top in'a few minutes ; this improvement, with ttie 
 Adjustable Jack Arms that can he disconnected in a few minutes, enables the 
 Victor Excavator to. be made ready for moving jpny where that an ordinary , 
 passenger car will go— through tufnnels or under bcidges — and upon arriving 
 at destination can be got re'^dy for work in the same time it took to get ready 
 for moving. -" . " .». ' , 
 
 We use Steel Racks and Pinions on the Dipper Handle ; Edges' Best 
 Best Crane Chains for .hoisting and swinging. 
 
 The Boiler is large and of dmple capacity to steam easy, made of best 
 Steel Plates. 
 
 There is a large Water Tank under the car aQ||put of the way, that holds . 
 enough to supply the boiler for half a day. ' < 
 
 ' With all the improvements embodied in this raachyie it is considered the 
 best Excavator made,- and it will dp the largest amount of work at the least 
 expense. . 
 
 We have secured 'the so)^ right to manufacture the Victor Excavator in 
 Canada. • " . ^ . „ •

 away with an ezpenaive and dangeroua device. The hanun«-r drum ia provided with a 
 Ratchet and Pawl for holding the hammer In any poaition required while the pile ia be-

 The machinery ia placed upon a atrong Bridge Frame Work of Channel Iron, and 
 ia moved from centre to either en^ upon fixed rollera where it can be tumdd toany 
 poaition upo|^ turntable and clamped to car while being uaed. The Leaden can be low- 
 'ered into position ahown oh page 8, and being balanced by placing the hammer 'about 5 
 ft from l«wer end of Leadera ', can be eaaily handled by two men and done in a few 
 minutes, and can then be run anywhere in a freigh^^train. Thebe is a Water Tank un-

 Centrifugal Pumps. 
 
 r~"lHE principle on which the Centrifugal 1Pum* operates is too well 
 
 known to need any particular explanation. The simplicity of pumps 
 
 ^ .. which act on the Centrifugal principle makes them the most efficient 
 
 and durable of all pumps, the wear being very slight as com|)ared with 
 
 plunger pumps, and the cost is very much less for the same capacity, which 
 
 IS the teason of their being used in so many Tafineries, Paper Mills, Pulp 
 
 Mills, Breweries, Distilleries, and by Contractors fof draining Lock Pits, Coffer 
 
 Dams, Sewers, emptying Dry Docks, Irrigating, Wrecking, Fire Purposes, and 
 
 various other uses— being in constant use in many .of these from five to ten 
 
 years without wanting any repairs. We use the Hollow Arm Wheel in all 
 
 pumps for raising water or any liquids not having stringy substances in it. 
 
 The Concave Arm Wheel we use for pumping "half stuff" in Paper Mills, or 
 
 any such material which is liable to clog. ^ 
 
 s. 
 
 The Ver^cai Pump 
 
 Is intended to stand on the bottom of the tank, tub, well or reservdr, aa the case may 
 be, or it can be fastened at any required distance from the bottom ; the only essential 
 point being, that the pomp should be constantly immersed in the fluid to be raised. 
 For draining lock pits, cofler dams, tan vaU, etc., in short for any situation in Which 
 large quantities of very foul water containing mud, sand, gravel, bark, etc., ire to be 
 raised expeditiously and cheaply, we consider o^r Vketical Pomp unequalled by any 
 other With which we are acquainted. It is always ready for action, and rarely or never 
 g;et8 out of order. It can hardly break, or wear out, or clog. It raises enorq^pas quan- 
 titin of fluid with comparatively little power.- and U the admiration of all who see it 
 work. The shaft in Pumps is from 3 to 4 feet long. We furnish one oouplinx. one 
 elbow and the pulley, with each pumpi ^ ^^ 
 
 Direetions for Setting up Vertieal Pjuhpsl 
 
 ■ In patting down be careful to have a perfect bearing for each leg; and see that the 
 shaft turns easily ; put the pulley on the upright shaft, and near it a guide pulley, under 
 or over the bel t as the case may_requiw. and make a quarter twist i n the belt when vou ''

 •The Horizontal Pump,

 "^IGHT HAND. WITH SUCTION PRIMER ATTACHED. 
 
 IT is frequently desirable to use our Pump as shown above. It is as tho^ 
 a "Vertical" Pump was turned over orr>ts side!, the/ shaft then being' 
 horizontals the circumstance which gives the pump its distinguishing 
 name. 
 
 In point of execution there is no important difference between the Hori- 
 
 ' zontal and the Verjtical Pump. The form.er has the advantage of being more 
 
 readily examined in case of accident. * , ' • 
 
 In using the Horizontal Pump it is necessary that the Pumpshould bfe full 
 
 of water before it will start. If the \yater is taken froni a tank or flume level 
 
 with the Pomp the water should stand in them as hig^ as top of the Pump ; 
 
 if the water is to be taken from a point belowMjje Pump thei^must be a 
 
 Foot Valve at the bottom of the suction pipe, to hold it and the Pump full 
 
 of water, which must be put in, either at the discharge opening with pails, or 
 
 by means of a Suction Primer H H, as shown above attached to Pump. The 
 
 ■part shown at the extreme right is a small lifj-p'ump," worked by hand, and 
 
 used only in charging the main i)ump before starting • the pet-cock (shown on 
 
 top of shell) is opened and the Primer, is worked until na more air is driven 
 
 put of it. When the Pump is evidently full (and not before) the pet-cock is 
 
 Hclosed, and the main Pump is then ready to be started. The Pump may be 
 
 L ^'"P''^'^ ^y withdrawing the screws ^near the bottom of Primer and shell of 
 
 . Pump. This should always be done when the Pump is liable 'to freeze up 
 
 - over night. • , ' , 
 
 / The Primer is finished ready to attach- the siiction pipe at K. All our

 V It is essential that the stuffing-boxes, at E, and the top of Primed and all 
 joints should be well packed and air-Hght. Candle-wicking moistened with 
 oil is tbe best for the stuffing-boxes. >> 
 
 The suction-pipe may run horizontally, or bend in any direction to suit the 
 location of the fluid to be raised It should not, however, descend towards 
 the Pump, which should be higher than any part of the suction-pipe. The 
 amount of elevation (as a basis of speed) should be reckoned from K\\& bottom 
 of suction-pipe to the top of discharge pipe. The Suctiion-pipe should be 
 \laiger than discharge pipe so as to make less friction on water, and thus take 
 less power or throw more water with same power; short bends increase fric- 
 tii>n and should be avoided as mu?b as possible ; can use Wction pipe same 
 siz^as discharge but it will not give as gQod results. 
 
 Directions for Setting up Horizontal Pumps, ti 
 
 Grea^ care should be used when settirig up the Pump to give the suction- 
 pipe fifm\ and reliable Support,' other than its attachment to the Pump. A 
 neglect of \^his injtspensible precaution would be apt to produce a springing 
 or twisting ^r even cracking) of the suction side of the Pump shell, by either 
 of which the i^orking of the purrip would be materially interfered with or 
 stopped The joints in the suction-pljie must be air-tight or Pump will not 
 work well, if it dbes at all ; therefore see that a support amply sufficient to sus- 
 tain the weight of the suction-pipe and its contained fluid be given to the 
 pipe, entirely distink from the pump itself. A, good way to do this is to place 
 a firm support under the flange of pipe where it connects on to the bottom 
 of PriiTjer. '. * 
 
 Can the Speed be Diminished? ^-'^— 
 
 Our Pumps are designed to raise, not sls little, but as mucAas possible, and 
 is therefore not oflered to raise small quantities of water. The table gives 
 the height to which a Pump of specified size, with a certain number of revo- 
 lutions, will raise a certain quantity ofwater. Now it is iinportant tolcnow 
 th?t a very slight diminution of speed would result in a considerable reduc- 
 tion of the amount raised "fo that height, and (what is of still greater conse- 
 quence) a reduction of speed, of sufficient extent to effect an appreciable 
 saving of power, would most likely cut, of the delivery entirely, at that point. 
 Diminishing the size of stream will not cause it to rise higher, nor will halfx 
 the speed send a stre{i,m half the size to the same point.

 HIS represents our Double Drum, Double Geared Hand-Powe? attached 
 
 ' tc^a Derrick. It is constructed with iron cheeks so that it can jbe bolted 
 
 to a derrick mast sixteen inches wide or iinder. The upper drum is 
 
 to hoist the load, the lower drum to raise or lower the boom ; dogs are 
 
 provided to keep the load or boom in position while the crank shaft is 
 
 changed from one gear to the other, and to hold the boom or load in any 
 
 position required. For the brake to he used in lowering use manilla rope, 
 
 about one inch in diameter, thr^e or four times around crank sh^ft — fasten 
 
 the one end of rope by a staple to the mast ; it can be used either single or 
 
 , double geared by changing the cranks from one shaft to the other. Propor- 
 
 tidn of gears: first pair, 75 to 15 cogs; second pair, 36 to 15 cogs. The 
 
 Drums are plain^ inches in diameter, 15 inches long between flanges.

 Centrifugal Pumps. 
 
 ' ■' . " ^ ''■'■' '„j 
 
 THE principle on which the Centrifugal Pump operates i« too well 
 known to need any particular explanation. The simplicity of pumps 
 which act en the Centrifugal principle makes them the most efficient 
 and durable of all pumps, the wear being very slight as compared with 
 plunger pumps, and the cost is very much less for, the same capacity, which 
 IS the reason of their being used in so many Tanneries, Paper Mills, Pulp 
 Mills, Breweries, Distilleries, and by Contractors for draining Lock Pits, Coffer 
 Dams, Sewers, emptying Dry Docks, Irrigating, Wrecking, Fire Purposes, and 
 A-arious other uses— being in constant use in many .of these from five to ten 
 years without wanting any repairs. We use the Hollow Arm Wheel in all 
 pumps for raising water or any liquids not having stringy substances in it 
 The Concave Arm Wheel we use for pumping "half stuff" in Paper Mills, oi 
 any such material which is liable to clog. \ 
 
 or 
 
 The Ver);icai Pump 
 
 Is intended to stand on the bottom of the tank, tub, well or reservoir, as the case may 
 be, or it can be fastened at any required distenee from the bottom ; the only essential 
 point being, that the pump should be constantly immersed in the fluid to be raised. 
 For draining lock pits, coflfer dams, tan vats, etc., in short for any situation in i^ioh 
 large quantities of very foul water containing mud, sand, gravel, bark, etc., ire to be 
 raised expeditiously and cheaply, we consider oqr Vrktical Pump unequalled by any 
 other with which we are acquainted. It is aiWays ready for action, and rarely or never 
 gete out of order. It can hardly break, or wear out, or clog. It raises enonopas quan- 
 tities of fluid with comparatively little power, and is the admiration of all who see it 
 work. The shaft in Pomps is from 3 to 4 feet long. We furnish one oouplinir, one 
 elbow and the pulley, with each pump.

 In pitting down be oarefnl to have a perfect bearing for each leg, and see th«t the 
 shaft turns easily ; put the pnUey on the upright shaft, and near it a guide pnlley, under 
 or over the belt as the caae may require, and make a quarter twUt in the belt when you 
 drive from a horijEontal shaft It makes no difference which way the driving shaft runs. 
 as the twist of the belt may be changed to corraspond.

 The Horizontal Pump, 
 
 RIGHT HAfTD, WITH SUCTION PRIMER ATTACHED. 
 
 It is as thouglK*^ 
 
 iT is frequently desirable to use our Pump as shown above. 
 
 a "Vertical" Pump was turned over oiv its side, the^ shaft then/bejng 
 horizontal— the circumstance which gives "the pump its distinguishing 
 name. ' 
 
 '~ In point of execution there is no important difference between the Hori- 
 • zontal and the Vertical Pump. The former has the advantage of being more 
 readily examined in case of accident. ' < , • 
 
 In using the Horizontal Pump it is necessary that the Pump should be foil 
 of water before it will «tart. If the water is taken from a tank or flume level 
 with the Pump the water shopld stand in them as high asYop of the Pump ; 
 if the water is to be taken from a point below the Pumf^^re must be V 
 Fopt Valve at the bottom of the suction pipe, to hold it and the Pump full 
 of water, which must be put in, either ^t the discharge opening with pails, or 
 by means of a Suction Primer H H, as shown above attached to Pump. The 
 .part shown at the extreme right is a small lift-pump, worked by hand, and 
 used only in charging the main i)ump before starting j the pet-cock (shown on 
 top of shell) i^ opened and the Primer is worked yntil no more air is driven 
 out of it. When the Pump is evidently full (and not before) the pet-coek is 
 '-tlosed, and the main Pump is then ready to be started. The Pump may be 
 emptied by withdrawing the screws near the bottom of Primer and shell of 
 Pump. This should always be done when the Pump is liable to freeze up

 It is essential that the stuffing-boxes, at E» and the top of Primet and all 
 joints should be well packed and air-tight. Candle-wicking moistened with 
 oil is t|ie best for the stuffing-boxes. 
 
 The suction-pipe may run horizontally, or bead in any direction to suit the 
 location of the fluid to be raised. It should not, however, descend towards 
 the Pump, which should be higher than any part of the suction-pipe. The 
 amount of elevation (as a basis of speed) should be reckoned from the bottom 
 of suction-pipe to the to/> of discharge pipe. The Suction-pipe should be 
 ^\larger than discharge, pipe so as to make less friction on water, and thus take 
 less power or throw more water with same power ; short bends increase fric- 
 tion and should be avoided as mu9h as possible ; can use Wction pipe same 
 size as discharge but it will hot give as good results. 
 
 Directions top Setting: up Horizontal Pumps. < 
 
 Grea^ care should be used when setting up the Pump to give the suction- 
 pipe firni and reliable support,' other than -its attachment to the Pump. A 
 neglect of this indis|}ensible freca'ution would be apt to produce a springing 
 ' Or twisting (^r even cracking) of the suction side of the Pump shell, by either 
 of which the Mrorking of the punip would be materially interfered with or 
 stopped. The joints in the suction-pipe must be air-tight or Pump will not 
 work well, if it does at all ; therefore see that a support amply sufficient to sus- 
 tain the weight of the suction-pipe and its contained fluid be given to the 
 pipe, entirely distinct from the pump itseHf. A. good way to do this is to place 
 a firm support under the flange of pipe where it connects on to the bottom 
 of Primer.

 Can tlie Speed be Diminished? v^-^— 
 
 OOr Pumps are designed to raise, not as little, but as much as possible, and 
 is therefore not offered to raise small quantities of water. The table gives 
 pthe height to which a Pump of specified size, with a certain number of revo- 
 j lutions, will raise a certain quantit>' of water. Now it is important to know 
 j that a .very slight diminution of speed would result in a considerable reduc- 
 1 tion of the amount raised 'fo that height, and (what is of still greater conse- 
 quence) a reduction of speed, of sufficient extent to effect an appreciable 
 saving of power, would most likely cut. off the delivery entirely, at that point. 
 Dintinishing the size of stream will not caiise it to rise higher, nor will half 
 the speed send a stream half the size to the same point.
