FROM TIE HEALTH OFFICER
The following communication frem DR.
Beatty was received and laid on the table
until the next regular meeting, together
with an ordinance which accompanied it:
To the President and Members of the City
Council:
respectfully recommend the passage of the
ordinance regulating the construction of priyy
vaults, herewith submitted. II is measure of
extreme Importance, as the privy nuisance has
too long been permitted TO do It's deadly work
in this city. II is TO be desired that there shall
be q general adoption Of the dry earth closet
which is both inexpensive and hygenic, and al
together the best substitute possible where
sewerage is not available. This consists of the
ordinary outbuilding substituting a movable
box for the pit or vault and throwing a cupfull
OF dry dust or earth after each use. This de-
odorizes and disinfects completely and the con-
tents may be used without offense for a fertil-
izer. The dry earth closet is very widely used
and in no other city that 1 know OF is the vault
building left unrestricted as in this city Re-
specially. T. B. BEATTY
