MYEBS BULLDOZER POWER WORKING- HEAD. 



The accompanying cut Is an illustration of the 

 Myers Bulldozer Power Working Head, designed es- 

 pecially for pumping purposes, for which the makers 

 claim the widest possible range of use, being adapted 

 to wells of great depth and equally efficient in de- 

 livering water to high elevations, all of which re- 

 quires a construction of great strength in all its 

 parts and arranged with special care with regard to 

 endurance when kept in continuous use, as is often 

 required from a working head of this class. 



It is claimed that this working head for a pump 

 has such a construction that the several parts can 

 be readily removed to permit of access to the in- 

 terior of the head whereby the working parts can 

 be removed without disconnecting the discharge pipe 

 from the base, without loosening the fastenings that 

 secure the base to the platform or other supporting 

 structure, and without disconnecting- the driving 

 mechanism; the construction admitting of a very 

 short base so the operating mechanism is located 

 close to the supporting surface, being simple in 

 construction and operation. The power Is applied 

 close to the base, and bronze boxes operate on the 

 wrist pin and cross-head pin. A strong claim Is 

 made that the entire machine is self-contained, com- 

 plete within itself, so that it is only -necessary that 

 the base be properly fastened to the platform, when 

 It Is ready for operation. 



This working head can be furnished with a bal- 

 ance wheel, differential, and air chamber; it has a 

 24-inch stroke, and is especially designed for a heavy 

 duty service. 



Full descriptive matter will be furnished by the 

 makers, Messrs. F. E. Myers & Bro., Ashland, Ohio, 

 upon application.

TheLittle Roadster Grader andDitcher 



THE 



A New, Light Ditch Plowing Machine, 



Especially Designed for Cutting Small 



Laterals on Irrigated Farms, and 



Ditching and Grading Roads. 



This type of machine cuts ditches^for 

 less money than any other tool or ma- 

 chinery, because it plows the dirt out of 

 the ditch with one continuous motion, 

 whereas all other ditching machinery or 

 appliances must pick the dirt up and 

 lift it out of the ditch and then dump it. 



The Little Roadster is a practical 

 plowing machine, being built with ad- 

 justable leaning wheels or rolling land- 

 sides which counteract the side pressure 

 of the earth on the mold, the same 

 leaning wheel principle which is used in 

 the sulky plow. 



It is made almost entirely of wrought 

 steel and the few castings that are used 

 are malleable and all parts are put to- 

 gether so far as possible with hot driven 

 rivets, so that while it is a light machine 

 weighing about eleven hundred pounds, 

 it is exceptionally strong and rigid. It 

 is designed primarily for two horses, al- 

 though four may be used. 



EVERY IRRIGATED RANCH OR FARM NEEDS ONE OR MORE OF THESE MACHINES. IT WILL QUICKLY 

 PAY FOR ITSELF. SEND FOR DESCRIPTIVE FOLDER AND LET US TELL YOU MORE ABOUT IT
