Another Valuable Inven
tion.
CATE'S BACK-sCCTtON PRKENTOR FOR
OIL WELLS, patented August 15. 1871, which en
tirely prevents the '.ugrcsa of air In oil wells, while
the tubing is being drawn. It is a well known tact
to oil operators, that upon wciU where Gas Pumps
are used It Is necessa y to preserve as nearly a per
fect vacuum as possible, and that no a'r should be
let Into the well, at auy time, w hen it can possibly
he avoided; consequently, whenever the tubing is
drawn f r m a well It Is the cause of great iuju:-y to
It, as the stnmug box, being then necessarily open
ed, the air immediately rushes back between lbc
tubing aud casing, iuto the well going into lbs oil
rock aud gas veins, and col sequeiitly cansiu the
oil snd gas to rush back to a great distance, bo
much so, that it almost always takes several days
a ter pnmpiiu: Is resumed for a wi'll to be brought
back to Its former coudltlon, and oftentimes It lakes
several weoks; and quite frequently wells have been
almost couip it ly ruined by the air being thus let
In while drawing tubing
The BACK SCCTION PREVENTOR Is attached
tooths stulllug box and works in such a way that It
completely shuts np the space between the stuffing
box and tubing so effectually that not a p'rtlele of
air can get through at any time wh'le the tubing is
being drawn and replaced. It supplies a want long
felt, aud Is, without qaestlon, one of tho most val
uable Inventions of the day, to the e eng ged In the
oil business. No well should be wlthou' It, as it of
ten times saves ten times ls cost fay once using.
