PAYS FOR WHAT HE GETS

ain the first place, person pays Tor
what he actually consumes. In many In
stances it is impossible TO fix rate oy
ordinance on account OF the constantly
VARYING consumption. For example; Many
houses are occupied for eight or ten
months of the year and are vacated during
the summer term; yet, according TO ordi-
nance rules, we have to charge Just the
same as though the place were occupied
the entire time. Again. the present rate
of charge by the meter-system allows 0
luxurious use Of water, and yet in the ADJ
sence of those not consuming the water
makes only an equitable bill. At the same
time the meter acts as silent inspector,
enforces caution and prudence, anu pre-
vents the wasting of water"
Are wateT-meters reliable III giving the
quantity of water consumed?" asked the
"They are not strictly reliable in giving
the exact results. yet / have never known
of an instance IN which q water-meter
registered a greater quantity than had
passed through it. 1t will be seen from
this that the meter ALWAYS leans toward
the water-t qker and operates to his advan-
tage. They frequently under-reglster the
volume OF water passing through them,
but the meter furnishes the only equitable
way for fixing the tax upon the article con;
sumed. One pays for electric llghts ana
gas by meter measurement; why not pur-
chase water in the same way "

AN INCH OF CREAM.

In gathering cream the creameries use
various measures, and of course these
will differ as the size of the milk cans
used vary. These measures are either
an inch or a space. The cream is paid
for bv these measures. 1t is an easy mat
fer to tell how much cream there is in
one of these measures, but not TO find
how much butter the cream will make,
and this is one of the difficulties met
with in this business. There are several
kinds of cans or pals used, and these
from eight or nine inches in diameter to
more. Generally each creamery uses the
same can and fixes the measure in rela-
ton to the quantity of butter made from
one inch in depth of the cream in the
can, or a standard measure called a
space. To find the quantity of cream,
measure the diameter of tho can and
multiply this by itself, which gives the
square OF it. Then multiply this by
1854, and the product is the cubic inches
of cream in one inch deep of the can.
Thus a can nine inches in diameter will
have sixty-three and six-tenths cubic
inches in an inch deep, and this is usually
taken as equivalent to pound of but
ter. A quart contains fifty seven and
three-quarters cubic inches, aud it re-
quires more than a quart OF ordinary
cream to make a pound of butter. If
the can is "half tie circumference of a
wagon wheel" it will take about enough
cream to make four pounds of butter to
make one inch in depth in the can.-
