A piston'll is disposed 85 My invention `is illustrated in the accom- 1n the cylinder and is provided with a valve panying drawingsforming .part of this ap` 12. .The piston'is connected by means ofv plication in whichthe rod 13, cross head 14v and pitman 15,
Figure 1 is a sectional-view through the Withthe drive wheel 16 which is located on device, Fig. 2 lis a` section along the line a base 17 disposed on the concrete floor 18. 90 2-2 of Fig. 1, Fig. 3 is a section alongthe 'The cylinder 10 communicates, by means of line 3 3 of Fig. Q, Fig. 4 is a plan view a pipe 17, wlth a pipe 18, a check valve 19 showing a plurality of wells and pipes being interposed between the pipes 17 and therefor, and Fig. 5 is a'modifiedform of 18. The pipe 18 is provided with'an outer pipe-3 having telescopic sections. Y telescopic member 20, which is threaded at 95 The device which forms the subject of its end to engage the member 9 and is prothe present application is primarily devided with handles 21 for rotating the pipe signed for use in sections 'in which there is sectlon 20 so as to secure the latter into the ga source of water supply'from which the member 9.,

The difficulty lies in starting Aentrance o f air from the' pipe 5 The tele` the Siphon. sco ic section 2O of the pipe 18 is connected In carrying out m invention, I sink a wit the member 9 in the manner described number of wells, suc as that shown at 1 and the drive wheel 16 1s set 4going 1n any 110 suitable manner as by a belt 22. The reciprocation of the piston 11 will cause the air to be pumped out of the pipe 5, the water risin to take its place. As soon as there is a su cient head of water to start the siphon flowing the valve S may be closed. The telescopic member may be unscrewed from the member 9 and moved back inbO the position shown in Fig. 1. Now when the valve 8 is opened the water has free access to the tank 7 and will continue to flow steadily into thevlatter as long as there is any water in the wells, or until the level X-Y of the water is lowered to that of the discharge end of the Siphon. It will be seen vthat the flow will continue automatically without any further attention on the part of the operator. Now if it is desired to cut o the flow, the only thing necessary is to turn the valve 6, so as to admit air. This will break the siphonic action and the flow of water from the pipe 5 will therefore be checked. In order to start up thetsiphonic action again the air valve 6 must -be closed and the apparatus must be a ain connected up as described for starting t e initial flow. But unless it is desired to drain the pipe the water can be controlled at will by simply opening and closing the valve 8. The valves 12 and' 19 serve to permit the air to be forced out through the open end of the cylinder. On the inward stroke of the piston the valve 12 opens, while on its outward stroke the valve 12 closes and the check valve 19l opens.
In Fig. 5 I'have shown a modified form of the device which is used for open surface wells. This consists of a fixed inner pipe 3x and a slidable outer pipe 3y. Between the end of the inner pipe 3x and theouter pipe 3y is a resilient gasket 32 of any ,suitable A material such as leather. At the end of, the

entrance of sticks or other matter .which might clog up the pipe. At 23 I have shown a gear wheel which is mounted on a shaft 24, bearing a drum 25. A chain 26 is wound around the drum and is connected at 27 to one end lof the' pipe 3y. A gear 2-8 is arranged to engage the gear 23 and is provided with a crank handle 29. By turning the handle29` the telescopic pipe 3y may be raised or lowered to any distance therefore being adjustable for wells of various depths.
I claim:
1. The combination with receptacle, siphon being arranged to empty into said receptacle, a cut-0E valve carried by the long arm of the Siphon, said cut-off valve being disposed in the wallof the receptacle, a pump carried bythe opposite wall of the receptacle, telescopic means for connecting said pump with the end of said Siphon, and a valve carried by said Siphon above the levelof the fluid for breaking the flow of the Siphon. 4
2. The combination with a siphon, ofa receptacle, the end of the long arm of the siphon being arranged to empty into the receptacle and being provided with a union member, a cut-olf valve carried by the long arm of the Siphon,
opposite wall of the receptacle, a pipe exa Siphon, of a tending from the pump toward said union member, and` a shdab e sleevecarried by said pipe and provided with aunionmember arranged to engage said rst named union member for connecting the pump with WILLIAM F. STUART.
