THE BUSINESS WORLD.

DvLLAs, Aug. v-lhe local grain market
has gained q little in tone, but Is barely
altered In prices. Farmers have conceded
buyers rates, and more business has been
done within three days past than altogether
since the season opened. Wheat and oats
are quoted with a revise of this afternoon.

The SANITARY Engineer says: When
natural watercOurSe traverSeS a
town, and its banks become built upon,
the easiest way of getting rid Of filth
and house wastes is to throw them
into the stream. Every mans instinc-
tive impulse is to get rid of what an
noys him, and not to mind how his
neighbor will be affected. After
while, when the watercOurse has be-
come sufficiently nasty, the people
come to realizing sense of what
they have brought upon themselves,
and then try to devise a remedy. In
this they begin usually at the wrong
end.
They look on the stream as creating
the nuisance, and don't consider that
it is their abuse of the stream that is
the source of the trouble. So they go
to work and cover the stream up, and
call it Il sewer. What is the result?
Simply that the stencil of the foul
matter in the old channel is bottled up
somewhat, to be vented through every
manhole, every inlet and every house
drain, and probably do more real injury
than when the rOtting filth was exposed
tc the air and the sun, and diffused its
aroma through the whole atmosphere.
The channel of a small natural
stream through town or village
ought never to be converted into
sewer for house wastes. This will
strike good many people as an odd
doctrine, but still it is sound doctrine.
The functions of a natural stream and
of a sewer are so diverse that one can
not be made to do duty for the other.
