A. A. Axelton Pioneer of Early Double Action Pumps
A. A. Axelton of this city presented his original double action pump model to the Times office. The device, made 45 years ago in Roland Iowa, was used by Sioux City water works and to power street sprinkling wagons, reducing labor. He later patented a single cylinder double action pump, an innovation now common. A large company allegedly copied the patent, but Axelton notes his design 46 years ago remains foundational.
