Water For Your 
Country Home 
F YOU live in the country there is a way for 
I you to enjoy all the comforts and con- 
veniences of a city water supply without 
a penny for water tax. 
It is accomplished by the Kewanee System. 
With the Kewanee System you get even more 
than city service, because, in addition to every 
benefit the latter affords, you may have 
—Soft water in your bathroom and laundry. 
The Kewanee System is easily explained; it 
consists simply of having a Kewanee Pneumatic 
Tank set in your cellar or buried in the ground. 
The water from your own well or cistern is 
pumped into the Kewanee Tank. 
From the tank the water is delivered under 
pressure to the laundry tubs, kitchen sink, bath- 
rooms, outside hydrants or wherever wanted. 
When the tank is half full of water the air which 
originally filled the entire space will be compressed 
into the upper half of it. 
It is this pressure exerted on the water which 
delivers it to the plumbing fixtures and hydrants. 
An average pressure of 40 pounds may be main- 
tained under ordinary conditions. This will carry 
water toa height of 80 feet, thus affording splen- 
did fire protection 
You see that the method, while perfectly simple, 
is based ona thoroughly sczentzfic plan. 
The Kewanee Water Supply Company was the 
first to apply this principle successfully in supply- 
ing water to country houses, and after ten years of 
experience the system has proved to be entirely 
practical and it is rapidly growing in favor. 
Over 5.000 Kewanee Outfits now im use. 
The old style elevated tanks are passing. 
—Because they stand no show in competition 
Kewanee Water Supply Company, Drawer S, Kewanee, Ill. 
with the modern, no-trouble system—the Kewanee 
System. 
The old fashioned gravity system meant pump- 
ing water wp in order to get it down again. 
Now, to give the necessary pressure for fire pro- 
tection and service, the elevated tank must be 
located on top of a tall tower. This is expensive, 
unsightly and unsafe. 
The water freezes in winter, becomes warm and stagnant in 
summer, and repairs are a big item of expense. 
The attic tank doesn’t give sufficient pressure for fire pro- 
tection. 
Its weight is apt to crack the plastering. and when it leaks 
(as it is pretty szxe to do) your house is flooded. Just one 
such expensive accident may cost you many times the price of a 
Kewanee Outfit 
—Which cazzot flood the house, because the tank is resting 
on solid ground where it can do no damage. 
The installation of a Kewanee Pneumatic Water System 
in your country home means 
—Plenty of pure, fresh water, 
—Cool water in the summer, 
—WNo freezing water in winter, 
—Absolute protection from fire, 
— Dez. ease in insurance rates, 
—A plant that will last a lifetime, 
—No expensive repairs. 
It solves the country water problem completely. 
The Kewanee System will take care of a// your needs — 
for home, garden, lawn, stables, poultry houses, etc.
