TESTIMONIALS FOR .JOHN BLAKE'S PATENT SELF-ACTING HYDRAULIC RAMS. From the Right Honourable the EARL OF HARROWBY, 44, Grosvenor Square, London, February 21st, 1893. "Sir,-I have pleasure in stating that the two Hydraulio Rams, which you supplied and fixed for me last Autumn, at Sandon, have proved so far most successful, and that the work gives every promise of durability, while tbe eoonomy, compared with the former much smaller and intermittent supply by steam pump, will be considerable. With a fall of about 14 ft. from 11. previously existing mill pool, the rams supply reservoirs 168 ft. above the brook whence the water is forced, through pipes of one mile and a half in length. They sent up, as long as I required it, about 41,000 gallons per day. I now generally work the two rams alternately (for a fortnight or so each), but can at any time work the two together, if the full supply of 41,000 gallons should be needed. The business of this somewhat complicated water-supply was conducted by you with singular promp·'" ss and punctuality; and no local difficulties arose in the execution of the work, owing to the excellent and efficient men whom you sent trom your works at A.ccrington. I am, Sir, your very obedient Servant, HARROWBY." From Sir 8. M. Maryon Wilson, Ba.rt.• London, November 17th, 1891. .. Sir.-I have much pleasure in stating that the two' A.' Rams you supplied and fixed for me, at Searles, on my Sussex Estate, have proved a great suooess, especia.lly when the small supply of driving water is considered, as, with a supply of 7 gallons per minute only, they have daily thrown 3,000 gallons to a height of 96 feet, and through a service of pipes over a mile in length; ~and testing them recently (with plenty of driving power), found they lifted 7,000 gallons per day. The economy effected by their use is considerable, as they have entirely superseded a steam pump. S. M. MA.RYON WlLSON." From CHARLES HART, Esq., A.M.LC.E., 3, Avenue Road, Leamington, March 13th, 1893. Bru.worth Union Rural Sanitary Authority, East Haddon Water Supply. "Dear Sir.-Since the opening of these works in May, 1891, the two Double-acting' B' Rams supplied and fixed by you have done their work with a minimum of attention, uninterruptedly and satisfactorily. Pure spring water obtained from a gathering ground on the side of a hill is carried along iron pipes a distance of 1548 yards, down to a cistern fixed in the ram house. From this cistern it ftOWB to the rams, which are driven by impure water-drawn from an adjacent brook, with an available fall of 12 ft.-and thence by them forced along an ascending delivery pipe, a distance of 1,li20 yards, to au iron reservoir, at an elevation of 204 ft. From this reservoir mains are laid which supply the hall, with its stabling, the rectory, six farm houses, two dairies, IIoIld 24 wall fountains for the villagers' use. The average daily cOIlsumptioIl exceeds 4,000 gallons, which one ram easily delivers, thus exceeding your gU\l.r1l,nteed quantity by more than 1,000 gallons per ram per 24 hours. Generally the two rams are regulated to divide the work between them, but occasionally it devolves upon one only. If more widely knOWD, this means of supplying villages and small towns with a limited quantity of spring water, forced to 110 suitable elevation by means of your rams. driven by impure water, would most certainly be more generally adopted.
