Date From August 1.


AS anticipated. the District Commission
today accepted the proposals of r. v.
SIX of this city for collecting and dispos-
of ashes. miscellaneous refuse and
ght soil, and that of Marvin H. Chamber
in of Detroit, Mich, for collecting and
isposing of garbage and dead animals.

,ears. AS heretofore stated in The Star,
Mr.. Rusk agrees to perform the three
branches of the work for $29979, 5000 and
and $1,000 per annum. respectively. while
Mr.. Chamberiain's figures for the other
two are SJ1.GO.
Mr. Rusks contracts will begin August 1.
while that with Mr.. Chamberlain will not
begin to run until December /, the delay
in his case being due to the fact that it will
take until that time to complete the con-
struction of the reduction plant which he
will use in the disposal of garbage and
dead animals and the refuse and waste to
be turned over to him by Mr.. Rusk. 1t is
believed, however, that the plant will be
completed and placed in opera ton before
December l. probably November /, but Mr.
Chamberlain thought best to name a date
by which it will be surely in opera ton than
to designate one earlier about which there
would be doubt
Until the new contracts begin to run II
is stated. those now in existence will be
continued. that there will be no annoy
ance caused the people Of the District. OF
course, the collection of ashes is something
which has never before been performed by

Commissioners that the public shall under
stand that ashes will be collected from
private residences of the city and more
densely populated suburbs only and not
from hotels, business plants and other large

This yapor in the air is entirely in
visible until the air is brought TO a tenn
perature just below the dewpoint, when
q fog Is formed. How ofteE n dense
fog in the morning is dsslpated by the
sun, and we say the sun has burned
off, the fog. Fog rarely forms except
in a perfectly clear, still air. This per-
mits intense radiation from the ground
and smoke particles, and this cooling
finally brings the air to its saturation
point, when the yapor either condenses
on the smoke particles or on moisture
particles, thus becoming visible in fog.
When this fog occurs far above the
earth it is cloud.
