FooD FISH AND SEWAGE.

There is a rich and extensive
mine Of information III technical
publication soon to he placed at the
disposal of the Board of Health by
a gentleman Of the city. The work
is called Sewerage and Land
Drainage" It is replete with ac-
curate date, citations from immi-
nent authorities, clear illustrations,
careful compilations and logical
and practical comment. The au-
thor is Gen. Geo. T.. Waring, at
present Superintendent of streets
Of New York City. This
gentleman will be interviewed
by Mr.. +. S. Dodge the spec
ial Hawaiian commissioner recently
dispatched abroad to investigate
and report on methods Of city san
itation and on electric transit.
Gen. Warnings personal experience
has naturally been wide, he being
a practical engineer. His drainage
model is Holland, where the econ
omic art of retaining flooded lands
has reached its highest develop
ment. With him in sewerage mat
tiers, Great Britain takes precedence.
That country has always been in
the lead in this field. Its latest
production is the air power or force
system to which Mr.. f. NJ. Swanzy
has called the attention Of the Gov
eminent. And, by the way, if the
island agent is unable 10 salts
factorily inform himself on this
particular plan in the United States,
he is authorized to cross the Allan
tic and study it.
There are numberless ideas and
many chapters in Gen. Waring's
work, which from the similarity OF
city situation are applicable to
Honolulu. Scores of facts having
a direct bearing on local problems
are stated. ,The conclusion is clear
and positive that there can be nc
absolutely certain disinfection Of
any considerable amounts of sew
age by chemical processes. The
task is simply to great. Exposure
to sunlight on land and the same al
sea, are, then, the favored and least
expensive methods of both disinfec'
ton and disposition. All the
authorities agree that OH land the
cholera germ is the most easily
handled of any of the bacilli, while
having apparently the creates
vitality. 1t does not ascend to the
air. The contagion that does leave
the earth is crippled in its action il
this country by the wind movement
The latter protects us from miasma
Sir J. B. Lawes, quoting the lat,
Prof. Huxley, declares that "tht
delivery Of sewage into the
sea is by no means so waste
full a process as has beer
supposed" There is then proceed
ed to be shown that the contribu
ton to waters is a fertilizer to the
fish crop. Comparisons on catcf
and quality OF the important food
are made and the soundness of the
proposition fully established. Al
might easily be expected, discus
sion of the subject followed, sever
al signed articles appearing in the
Times and in the technical journals
II will strike all the people here as
peculiar and strange that in oil
consideration Of the subject of fat
tening and increasing foolish
with sewage, there is not a hint,
mention or suggestion that disease
could thus be communicated.
