University of Illinois, 1903, 80 pages.
The pumping of water has come to be a very important factor in modern civilization. Towns and cities must have water for household purposes, for power plants, and for extinguishing fires. In many cases it might be taken from surface streams or lakes, but as the same mains furnish the supply for all purposes, it has to be obtained from a source that is pure. Deep wells usually furnish pure water, and as they seem to be the most practicable means in level parts of the country, most cities and towns of sufficient size have one or more of them. Some means must be devised by which the water can be brought to the desired level. Many different schemes have been tried, but it is the object of this thesis to describe and compare the methods in use at the present time. A report of some tests made on the Downie Deep Well Pump and on the Air Lift used in the pumping station of the University of Illinois will also be made.
