 about our Improve-

 how we had entirely overcome 

 any tendency of leaks, at the

 brass pipe Is connected from the 

 supply pipe into the shouUJer of 

 the union. We told you then 

 how we had made the shoulder 

 considerably longer, so no mat- 

 ter what sags there might be in 

 the line, this brass pipe with 

 its flanged end would always fit 

 snug and tight against t\\e pack- 

 ing, allowing the union to turn 

 freely, hut not leak.

larger straining sur- 

 face than a Hat one, 

 '»ut it is much less like- 

 ly to clog. The force of 

 the water strikes the 

 strainer at a decided angle which 

 keeps washing clogging materials 

 from the point and sides toward 

 the back of the union, where thev 

 are held. The globe of the union 

 Is sometimes fillwl completely up 

 to the level of the strainer be- 

 fore the strainer Is clogged, while 

 if the force of the water struck 

 at a less angle, the tendency 

 would be to hold sediment tight 

 against Its face or drive it 

 through. A strainer that clogs 

 easily soon becomes a dogger In- 

 stead of a strainer.
