Enough Water... 
Is quite enoug-h water in some places, 
for some people, but where halld.^ome 
lawns and plants are dependent upon 
a daily supply, nothing so completely 
meets the requirements as the 
RIDER OR ERICSSON HOT AIR PUMPS 
Any day laborer is entirely competent to take 
entire charge of them. 
Our experience, running for more than half a 
century in the building of Hot Air Engines, and the 
daily performance of 25,000 of our Engines, should 
be sufficient proof of the justice of our claims.
