FILTER TANKS ARE BEING CARTED TO STATION Trouble Expected in Getting Them Over the - New Road—Reservoir Gains Four Inches More, The job of getting the filter tanks, weighing about ten tons each, to the pumping station. is going to be a big- ger job than was anticipated. The one ‘which was started on its way Sunday has been taken as far as the new road from the Salem turnpike at Maplewood cemetery, which leads to the pumping station.” The second one was taken from the car Monday and has been hauled as far as the former home of R. W. Marshall, where it was left for the night and will be taken on_this morning. Because of the weight of the tanks it is expected that trouble will be ex- perfenced getting them over the new road from the highway to the station, and it is possible that it will have to be_planked. Superintendent Corkery measured the water at Fairview on Monday and found it 160 inches below high water @ main of four inches since y. the pitation from the snow being .26 of an inch and helped } quite a little.

Only Brick and Block Pavement Will Be Sprinkled—Connecticut Company Will Pay for Oil Between Rails. It has been decided that the use of water on the streets will be curtailed this year as it was last and that oil, which proved. So effective in keeping down the dust, will again be used on all but the block and brick pavement, which cover but a small section of the y. he public works department will do the sprinkling for all the streets, put- ting on the oil for the railway com- pany between the rails, or that séction which the company is required to sprinkle, the company agrezing to fur- nish the oil for that section. It was the proposition of the city that the sprinkling would be done by the city if the company agreed to use oil and provided its share. It is expected that some of the oil Will be here so it can e used before the first of May. By using ol instead of water there ill be 7,000,000 gallons saved, which the city is obliged to give the railway company for watering the streets .the required distance. The city has in pre- Yvious years made a contract with them for sprinkling the streets the full width, which was at the rate of $§ a day, with a bonus of about $600. After the streets have been oiled early in May they will be oiled again August, which it is thought will carry them through the season and keep. the dust down. It Is probable will take 24 tank cars and the cost will be practically as much as by the use of the water, but it has proved more satisfactory and millions of gal- lons of water are saved.

The usual work of cleaning the streets and putting them in shape .is! under way in Crescent, Broad and Union streets, where a new street- scraping machine is being used. It is here on trial and is pronounced a de- cided success by all who have seen it. The machine, which weighs about a.ton, scrapes the dirt out of the gut- ters and distributes it on the streets, filling up holes and leveling off ridges, | leaving the street in fine condition | ‘when it s finished, It is a wachine which would be of much use to the city if it is decided to get one.
