CEMENT WATER PIPE. Mr.. Editor !:
As it has been reported that 100 rods of
cement water pipe, laid for me last fall by
Mr.. Benjamin Livermore has proved a
failure, wish to say through your paper,
that it is not so When | let the water in,
the frost had broken the pipe in one place,
which was repaired in few hours, and it
now works well, and conveys water at the
rate of $50 barrels per day. The pipe
cost me less than one-thrd as much as
lead, and now, instead of having water
poisoned by coming through lead pipes,
have pure water coming through pipe as
good as solid stone, and have 10 doubt it
will remain SO as long as tine, unless dis
turbed by some one, | think if the reser-
voirs in this place had been cement in
stead of wood, they would have been in
good condition now, and much valuable
property saved from fire.
