Butte Considers Garbage Contract To Save City Funds
J H Kelley proposes to manage the city's garbage for 75000 dollars annually and use it as hog feed. The deal could save about 60000 dollars per year, reducing municipal costs from 130000 to 175000 dollars yearly. Committee supports the plan, offering bond security and equipment transfer subject to city commission valuation. License losses from saloon closures may be offset by the savings.
