Kenyon'a ew Double Arlin Oil Pump for ln m pin;; Oil or Water in Deep VVeilt. Kenyon's New Double Acting Oil Pump is acknowledged to be the best pump now in use. One ot its leading features is that it not only produces a .contiouous ilow ol nil or other fluid, but tbat it creates and sitstnitis a eonstitiit and powerlul suction, by means ol which the seuuts or veins of the well are in a great measure cleat eu of para One and otber obstructions, and the oil in tbe veins is drawn towards tbe well. It bas been ascertained by actual test that the use of this pump causes a gradually increas ing flow ot oil. It is well known by oil operulore that this improvement i of ureat r Uie, and one that has been lonit sought for. The ablest Mechanic of our country havu for years been at worK trying to find out some new and untried plan to prolong tbe lile time of an oil well; and nothing yet to our knowledge has been brought beiore the public that in any way equals the power ol Ibe Kenyon Pump, experience having ttaught thai it is the long Continued suc tion tunt bas the power to keep up and In crease the production of oil well".
