Show AN AERIAL PUMP. Near the Deseret reservoir Is a queer looking windmill attached to a scries of pumps to be lined for irrigation. This In a rough model of the Invention of I). A. Flanlgan of the Utah Aerial Navigation Company of Sprlngvllle. The mill has two series of fans revolving re-volving In oppuHlte directions to counteract the turning effect of the machine and to utilize the power of the wind to the fullest extent The fans operate a rod attached to a scries of pump which will deliver an astonishing amount of water In a comparative com-parative moderate, breeze. Hut It In for aerial navigation that the machine In designed. When thiH double fan la driven by a gaaollne engine en-gine it developa a maximum amount of power and will drive flying machine at a high rate of speed. The shaft to which the fans In attached la made movable so they can be swung In any direction, thus nerving not only to drive the machine but to ateer It In any direction. The Idea seems eminently emi-nently practical and we expect to nee Mr. Flanigan making trip over the country some day In a flying machine driven by his improved propellers. |
