 against closed piping. 

 In other words, the 



material required to make 6 inch piping, will make 12 Inch fluming, giving almost double 

 the capacity, while the price is just half. Now for the uses of this fluming— You cannot afford 

 to waste water. Every drop must be put to good account. Then you must prevent the two- 

 thirds loss of water in that main earth channel. You don't want the water to soak down there. 



Instal Billabong Fluming 



and stop this unnecessary waste. 



Billabong Fluming is made in a variety of sizes and gauges. Outlet pieces and elbows are also 

 obtainable in many sizes. The various clips or bands for joining the lengths of fluming make 

 thoroughly tight and rigid joints. These clips are available in two types -one with feet or 

 standard, as illustrated; and a cheaper type without feet. The former is very handy and 

 readily placed m position. The latter may be supported with wood chocks where necessary, 

 and IS peculiarly adapted for setting in existing earth channels.
