June 1, 1910, has been fixed as the date when all connections for empty- ing sewerage into the Center sireet brook must be discontinued. This practice of using the brook for a sew- erage outlet has come to be regarded as a nuisance and a menace to pub- lic health, and the order of the court of burgesses fixing the time for a news to many citizens. The order fol- lows a protest to the state board of health and an investigation by Attor- ney George E. Hinman of Williman- tic, county health officer. The brook has been used as a sort of sewer for many years and now conditions have become so objection- able to citizens living about that sec- tion where the brook crosses Furnace street, and where the stench from it is oftentimes well near to intolerable that the protest was made, with the result indicated. If those using the brook as a sewer do not cease to do | s0 Dy the time indicated, the courts may be called upon to issue an in- junction to force the desired action.

Lighting up Dark Places. The borough officials are continuing thelr good work of ordering electric street lights placed in sections of the borough where they are manifestly needed.. A light has been authorized to be placed at a point near the north boundary of the borough on Main street. The change in the arrange- ment of the lights on lower Main street is pleasing to the merchants the doing business below railroad crossing.

Out of a total of 38 towns making monthly_returns to the state board of health, Putnam had the lowest death rate per thousand in Connecticut dur- ing November. The rate was only 2.7 per thousand.
