So efficientis the oil lubrication of the bearing supporting theshaft, that the rotor is easil} moved by one film of oil is maintained under pressure, underready regulation. The three-throw plunger pumpsare regulated by an ingenious device, the speed ofthe rotor controlling the volume of the issuing jet,through regulation of the aperture of the are two nozzles, at opposite sides. The issuingjet has a velocity of 300 ft. per second. At present thewater efficiency is 73 per cent. By the addition of2 in. in depth to amended buckets, and by installinglarger
