That village of the size of RUTLAND
with its great number of busiEe less places
and such Blu y thoroughfares as Merchant
row and Center street, cannot dispens
with street sprinkler during the summe
months, is too patent a fact to be denied
at this time, which we understand does no
exceed one foot in depth, the water com
missioners are justified in their course Il
not allowing 1t to be used for the purpos
of sprinkling the streets. To remedy thi
state of affairs, Mr.. Charles s. Monty, VIII
had commenced to run the sprinkler thi
season, but who from the cause stated, ha
been obliged TO stop, proposes er citing
water tank at the StroDg's avenue bridge
Moon brook, and getting a supply of waite
for street use, II sufficient encouragement
/ in the way of monthly subscription OF
merely nominal sum, he given HIM by GU
business men. We trust those hayin
places of business and offices will see tn
necessity Of providing for their own an
their customers comfort by having the dui
In our streets properly kept down.
