Two men and a dump cart worked all day yesterday clean- ing the yard up and the work will be finished today. The notices contain the information that the yard is to be graded and cemented, and that when any neces- sity arises for the yard to be cleaned in the future, those tenants who are ‘responsible for the filth, will be charg- ed with the expense of cleaning up. All tenants will be required to burn their own papers and dispose of the refuse which collects in containers to be furnished by themselves.
