it lowers the out lot let I 1 llie hereby reby lessening the amount of power needed to pump as compared with tit that it t it needed e e d e I 1 to pinup fl from hlll other wells he said that most farmers 8 who had a culup pumping I 1 alg system it i installed I 1 st lt 11 0 1 we were 10 1 0 ailt aug a pump that is if ent irei to small forthe for alie amount of water could bo be obtained by the
