parts OF the sewage. runs off through

the surface wells used by people on

age runs upon one field or upon one
filter bed and then upon another. tho
filtering processes appearing as perfect
as in summer. Thus are waste products
utilized, being largely transmitted by
vital chemistry into luxuriant vegetable
forms. The most profitable crops for
this farm have been found to be onions,
cabbage and celery. In Europe the
question is, at how little expense can
such farm be operated, the primary
object being the necessary disposal of
sewage, and the proceeds from crops
raised merely diminishing operating ex-
penses. A European sewage farm oper-
ated at a profit is the exception and not
the rule.

buildings, whose inartistic forms and re-
lations would, as likely as not, be inn
proved by an earthquake. The inhab-
itants of such places, at the outset, have
no more ideas or knowledge of sanitary

SEWERAGE PIPING HERE.
The great value Of the work done here
is principally suggestive, and is studied
by travellers and scientific men of cvery
continent.
AT the outset it was decided that it
would never do to permit sewage to flow
unto Lake Calumet as it would make a
cesspool of that body of water, and to
obviatc such a result, the mode of dis
posing OF the Pullman sewage here out
lined was decided upon. and pipes were

ment in the city is provided with the
best of water closets and Sinks that the
faucets for obtaining water are all INSIDE
the houses, and that about ten per cent.
Of the dwellings are provided with bath.
rooms, ii will be seen that q large amount
of sewage per capita is unavoidable.
FARM END OF IRON SEWAGE PIPE,
The sewage is pumped from the reser-
voir through IL twenty-inch cast iron
pipe to q, sewage farm about three miles
south OF the city AT the farm end OF this
pipe the sewage goes into receiving

few feet, above the surface of the ground.
