Dixon state commissioner of health has placed himself squarely of record As opposed to the principle of draining sewage into River also that the Borough of Dauville has been notified by the state department of health to prepare and submit plans for a sewage disposal Plant by july 1st in View of the above in order to obtain some practical information in regard to the relative value of different kinds of modern sewage disposal plants the Borough com in a couple of weeks ago sent a c Ommittee to Harrisburg to attend an illustrated lecture on the subject Given i y George w. Fuller a recognized authority who during the last ten years bus been identified with the biggest sewer propositions in America. The committee after examining into the various methods of sewage disposal reported in favor of the sprinkling system the Cost of installing which according to estimate will be about �30 000. Sprinkling filters consist of Beds of broken Stone usually from five to eight feet in thickness the Stone ranging from 1 to 3 inches in diameter. They differ from Contact filter in that the sewage is thrown As a Spray from nozzles spaced Over the Beds at intervals of about 15 feet in each direction. This Type of filter is regarded As the most efficient Aud economical one for Ordinary conditions. It will treat the sewage of some 30,000 people per acre Aud produce a non Putrescible effluent from which about 90 per cent of More 1xt Siep in �ii1 than this it possesses the Unn snal property of being self cleansing so that for maintenance practically All that is required is to have an attendant examine the nozzles once or twice a Day to see whether they Are free Iroku obstructions. In this country the first municipal sprinkling filter went into service at Reading of the 23rd of january last. Last month a Large disposal Plant of this Type was put in service at Columbas o. It is Trae there is some odor noticeable in the Vicinity of sprinkling filters As is naturally to be expected where the sewage is thrown As a Spray Over the surface. This odor however is rarely noticeable at a distance of 200 Yards. With the very smallest plants it is believed that a distance of on eighth of a mile will be sol lib it to from odor. With the sprinkling filters it is necessary to build some form of settling basins in which to retain those esp ended matters which Are detached from the Stone in the sprinkling filter.
