places for the general public and wa

been referred to me by the Superin-

begin their construction at once. /
have taken the liberty after an eK-
animation OF the troughs to write to
linn I'm substance as follows
THAT while the trough for stock has
considerable mechanism about II that
is liable to get out OF order, yet | see
no objection to its use at such places
as the Superintendent of Public works
might designate, provided provision
was made for the care OF the waste
water, and provided also that In the
event of it's becoming nuisance on
account of the water overlooking into
the streets the Board OF Health would
order such nuisance abated at once.
And as to the drinking places Tor the
general public, for obvious reasons. j
could not recommend them on any ac-
