For Water 

 Supply Systems 



THE STANDARD PUMPING ENGINE 



May be used to pump directly into the pipe 

 line system without the use of overhead or 

 storage tanks of any kind, and it can also be used in connection with any other kind of 

 elevated or air pressure systems. A few cents' worth of gas or gasoline each day will give 

 you plenty of water at high pressure every day of the year. These machines are suitable 

 to be used in connection with any kind of water supply systems, and our years of expe- 

 rience in this line of work enables us to guarantee results. Do not make the mistake of 

 doing without making this great improvement in your water supply system.

The water from the special nozzles comes 

 from overhead in a mist — sprays the plants like 

 a gentle rainfall — ^that will not injure the most 

 delicate leaves and blossoms. 



The ground does not cake and crack, but 

 keeps soft and porous, letting in the air necessary 

 to the rapid growth of plants. The labor saved 

 in one year will pay for the entire cost of the 

 System. 



Robt. Craig Co., of Philadelphia, say: "We 

 cannot speak too highly of your System, and 

 hope in time to have it installed throughout our 

 entire place. ' '
