New Plant Looks Good Pumping Plant Test Held
The water works committee of the city council invited local business men to witness and test the new pumping plant recently completed. It has eight foot and ten foot head capacities, producing 150 to 200 horsepower. Two water wheels can operate separately or together to pump water or generate electric power. Fireproof brick and concrete housing promises large annual city savings over electric pumping. An auxiliary plant via a repurposed old pump will remain in service for instant use.
