"The Towing Power Is Surprising" 



says B. Kuenstler, Saskatchewan, in speaking of 

 the Evinrude. "Have towed a 32-foot flat boat 

 with 6,500 Ibs. freight, at the rate of 50 miles daily." 

 Contractors and engineers everywhere use the

Detachable Rowboat and portable. Quickly attached to 

 Canoe Motor any kind of boat. The Evin- 



rude Magneto Built-in-Fly- 



Wheel Type, fuinishes absolutely reliable ignition. It is 

 water-proofed and protected Vorks right always, rain or shine. 

 Contractors find the Evinrude Centrifugal Pump valuable 

 for pumping water to or from any job. No priming cr suc- 

 tion pipe necessary. Large capacity 

 easy to operate. Simple, economical.

How much power for 

 a dollar? 



And then, how to get more power for each dollar ? that's the 

 big question that remained unanswered in thousands of plants until 

 they secured the 



BESSEMER OIL ENGINE 



(Awarded Gold Medal Panama-Pacific Exposition) 



This wonderful power producer operates on cheap crude and 

 fuel oils. In dependability of service it cannot be surpassed, no 

 matter what power you use. In economy of operation, nc other 

 method except water power in some instances has ever equalled the 

 Bessemer Oil Engine. 



If you are open to conviction that your power costs might be 

 reduced, ask for catalogue.

Rust -resisting ARMCO IRON COR- 

 RUGATED PIPE is peculiarly adapted for use in connection with CALCO 

 AUTOMATIC DRAINAGE GATES. It is of comparatively light weight, but 

 due to its deep corrugations is exceptionally strong, and at the same time is suffi- 

 ciently flexible to conform somewhat to wet and unstable foundations. 



THE COMBINATION IS UN- 

 EXCELLED. It works efficiently 

 at all times without trouble, super- 

 vision, or expense except that of 

 original installation. 

 A prominent engineering firm 

 writes us: "These gates are cheaper 

 to install than wooden or concrete 

 gates, and we believe will far out- 

 last wooden gates and give better 

 service."

CALCO AUTOMATIC DRAINAGE GATE 



"It Works While You Sleep" 



For use in localities where water levels are affected by action of tides, on lands pro- 

 tected by dikes or levees, or where for any reason, such as abnormal rainfall, floods, 

 etc., an excess amount of water collects. 



Constructed from cast iron, and so perfectly balanced and machined as to auto- 

 matically open or close with but a slight pressure of water either way. Once in 

 stalled, may be forgotten, but IT
