LET US PROVE TO YOU 



that an "American" Centrifugal Pump and "American" Gasoline Engine 

 will pay for themselves the first season in the saving and cost of Irrigation 



Take for example a steam driven pumping plant that will elevate 

 1 100 gallons of water per minute against a total head of 50 feet. 



We guarantee our "American" Centrifugal pump to use not more 

 than 20 brake horse power to do this work. 



By referring to authorized catalogs of other manufacturers you wil 

 find that they recommend for a No. 6 pump to deliver 1 100 gallons 

 per minute 59-100 horse power for each foot of head. Therefore for 

 a 50 ft. head they require 50x.59=29.5, or practically 30 horse power. 



That is a saving of $940 the first season in favor of our centrifugal pump and gasoline engine. 



Catalogs of "American" Centrifugal Pumps and "American" Gasoline Engines mailed free upon request.
