TERMS—CASH ON DELIVERY HOW TO ERECT A" GARBAGE PLANT Many Citiss Without Works For Proper Disposal. SEWAGE QUESTION GOMPLEX Four Important Steps Should Be Taken | by Any Municipality Planning to im ! prove Plant For Disposal or Methc of Collection—Must Consider Loc Conditions. As quite a number of cities are yet without the best modern works for col- lecting sewage. and ‘garbage, Rudolph Hering, consulting engineer of New York city and president of the Ameri- can Public Health association, writes interestingly in the Asuerican City. He says that still more citles are withouta satisfactory final disposal of these two classes of waste and yet a greater number, among them our largest cit- {es, have both a disposal and a collec- tion in quite an unsatisfactory condi- tion. Sewage and garbage problems must both be considered from three aspects. They have both some connection with the dissemination of disease, with the establishment of nuisances and with the pocketbook of the taxpayer. They must be satisfactorily solved from all three aspects or the works will cgrre- spondingly be a.failure. The first step to take when attacking either the sewage or garbage problem is to make a study of the existing local conditions and works, so as to be able | to advise a solution to protect health, to avoid nuisance and to require an expenditure that is comfortably within the available means of the community. The second step to be taken, both ! with sewage and garbage problems, is to make plans and estimates for cost for collection and disposal “c"‘“‘m‘gehave been collecting lumber freight to the best experiences of the day. Such plans should indicate the simplest and most economical means of thor- oughly satisfying all the above three requirements. local municipal authorities are suffi- clently experienced to prepare such plans, If not, outside engineers hav- ing such experience with the prob- lems should be employed. But it will almost always be best to have local officials associated with the study, be- cause local conditions, some of which meay not be fully apparent to the out- sider, may reveal solutions more eco- nomical or more satisfactory to the | community than without the local aid. The third step to be taken, if the plans are accepted and ordered to be carried out, will be the preparation of detailed contract drawings and speci- fications for the execution of the work. The specifications must be carefully and skillfully prepared to avoid mis- understandings and to get what was intended by the adopted gemeral de- sign. It is best, of course, if the same engineers who made the original design make also the contract drawings and specifications, because they best know the original intentions and the way of practicable. then ‘there should at-least be an approval obtained from them. : The fourth step to be taken is-actual executton of ‘the work. . This:part of the ‘undertaking is-at least as itmpor- tant as any other.

Mr. Davis and his family have been spending a few weeks’ vacation near Alexandria and are delighted with the Minnesota climate and the lake coun- try.
