This harmless looking package represents, according to City Engineer Joseph D. Willlams, a source of annoyance and consid- erable expense to the city of New Britain It represents an almost unsur- mountable difficulty., Yet it is noth- ing more than a bunch of roots, no larger in thickness than an ordinary lead pencil, averaging about five- | sixteenths of an inch.

One tiny root no bigger than a hair, wormed its way through the connections be- Lween sewer pipes. Inside the pipe, | where eversthing was nice and wet | and there was plenty of food, the | root prospered and multiplied until in a short time the pipe was filled with roots and the accumulated sewage had so completely hlocked dralnage fhat it was necessary to | tear up the etrest and remove the | pipe. This is rot an uncommon econdl- tion. The board iIs endeavoring to have poplar tress removed wherever possible. “They have no businees in a clty.” eald Enginesr Willlams.
