Testing watersupply without Reservoir.

Testing Water Supply without Reservoir
Tuesday of last week, the water com
missioners commenced piping around the
west side of the village reservoir for the
purpose of connecting the Braintree line
of water supply directly with the main
| pipe from the reservoir to the village, SO
that the supply from that source and
from the east, or Center, line could both
be brought straight from the springs for
domestic use and for such fire protection
as il would afford, during the rebuilding
of the reservoir.
Saturday morning a test was made Of
the pressure at the water gauge at JOS
lyn's store, on Main street, and the fol-
lowing is the result; The two lines con-
nected directly with the mains in the Wiz
lage, as above indicated, gave pressure
at the water gauge of 40 pounds 10 the
square inch, while the regular amount OF
water was being used by water takers
throughout the village. Two lines Of
hose were then coupled on to the hydrants
at the end of Summer street, near the
village building; one using a seven
eighths OF an inch and one an inch noz
zle. They were allowed to run 20 minutes,
which reduced the pressure from $40 TO
20 pounds. This was from the ''dead end"
of a four-inch pipe running the whole
length of Summer street.
The next test was made by connecting
the nose. Win the same noZZies on. at the
hydrant from the sixinch main, located
at the corner of Randolph avenue and
South Pleasant street, and after running
20 minutes, the pressure was reduced from
20 to As pounds.
The one-inch stream was then shut off,
and the seven eightks continued 30 min
utes. at the end OF which the pressure had
increased from as to 81 pounds. The sew
en-eighths was continued 30 minutes
longer, making an hour in all, and the
pressure increased to 60 pounds, at which
it was steadily maintained.
1t would seem from the foregoing that
in case of fire two streams of water can be
used at the start, until the head of water
is drawn down, when only one stream of
seven-eighths inch capacity can be
thrown to a sufficient height to eXtin
guish an ordinary fire.
At the present time there is almost, il
not quite, double the water from the sew
eral sources that there was at the time of
the village meeting of September 9TH. |
This is most favorable time to do the re-
pairing, as it requires the volume of water /
now flowing to maintain the pressure in /
1icated for fire purposes.
Work was commenced on the reservoir |
1t an early hour Monday and will be |
1t will probably take about four weeks /
before the reservoir will be ready to re-
GIVE water again. In the mean time, the
domestic service will be amply supplied

ion, unless from accident or some unfor-
cen cause.
