SAMSON TURBINE 



When the PUMP cannot be direct connected to 

 the turbine shaft, the power is usually trans- 

 mitted by gears, shafting, etc. On account of 

 the HIGH SPEED of the SAMSON, for a given 

 power, lighter and consequently CHEAPER 

 transmission machinery can be used.

Here Jlre the Points 



which practical irrigation men MUST 

 notice on the LITTLE WESTERN 

 GRADER AND DITCHER 



1. High arched frame which gives strength and provides AMPLE CLEARANCE for all angles of blade adjustment. 



2. The "FLOATING" type of blade mounted on a ring and so thoroughly BALANCED that it is easily and quickly 



manipulated with one hand. 



3. It has the pivotal rear axle which sets to prevent skidding on heavy side draft. 



4. It has the EXTENSION REAR AXLE which enables it to do the varied work done by our larger graders. No small 



ditcher is competent to do good work without such an axle. 



5. It has FOUR wheels which are ESSENTIAL for even work and light draft.
