Garbage collection feasibility for small Illinois towns
The Board of Health urges keeping garbage in closed vessels and hauling it away, but local authorities lack collection services. An Illinois act allows a two mill levy for towns under 100 000, yet none is adopted here. A wagon can service 1 000 people in two days, with three weekly pickups in summer and two in many towns, and burial is proposed as a simple sanitary disposal method.
