But 1t Might be Improved
Upon.
Such Is the Verdict With Reference to City
Water---More Wells to be Used

City water and its condition was dis
cussed by the Board Of Health Friday
night, Hon. Geo. W. Grouse, president
Of the Akron Water Works Co., and
DR.. Josiah Hartzell, the local
member of the State Board Of Health,
attending the meeting on purpose to
bring UP the matter.
An analysis of different waters made
by DR.. A. NJ. Bleile Of Ohio State Uni
vcrsity was present. 1t showed that,
while Akron city water contains a
certain sediment and frequently has
woody taste, it is not Injurious to
health.
Along this line, Mr.. Grouse said that
the company contemplated furnishing
water exclusively from wells in the near
future. He thought this would be bet.
ter than to place a tiltering crib in
Summit lake AS has been suggested
by the Council. The company now has
80 drilled wells, Il dozen of which are
| in operation. Others will be got t.
posed to use the compressed air meth
cd of forcing water up from the bot
tom of the wells and thus secure wa
ter which nature has filtered.
DR.. Hartzell said he would make {
report to the State Board Of Health
direct. The local board took no actor
in the matter. Mr.. Sargent said, how
ever, that he had never known deatl
to occur in Akron due to impurity il
the city water.
