The value of meters In preventing the
waste of water is shown in q recent report
by MIR. q. Hillyer. the president of the
Atlanta water-works. In March. 1885, the
city contracted for supply OF coal for the
succeeding year, the quantity being esti-
mated from the amount burned during
the preceding twelve months. The city
was then pumping {, 900. 0e0 gallons OF water
a day. and nobody had enough. A number
OF serious fires broke out, ut which the
fremen were seriously hampered by
lack of water. Consequently, as a mat
ter of absolute necessity. meters were put
on. The consumption ut once foil of

March, 1885, lasted through the remainder
of the year. all 1886, and until July, 1887.
In 1885, before the meters were applied
and while there were only 1900 services,

Richards) states that the meters arc
the property of tho landlord. the
city Keeping them In repair so far NJ
the labor is concerned-the new material
being charged to the owner. The water
department commenced this system OF re-
pairs in November. 1892, and IN the nrss
sir months they repaired 265 and con-
iemned 26 meters. Mr.. Richards believes
that the principal cause of meters getting
out of order is that they are often TOO
small for their duty: the fve-eighths lnch
meter being the size generally put In 20
measure tho average domestic supply.
The proportion of larger meters that ges
