UTILIZING PARIS SEWAGE.
Waste Flow from Metropolis Turned
to Excellent Account.

A German contemporary, in dis
cussing methods of utilizing sewage
for agriculture, gives considerable
space to Berlins successful enter
prise, already dealt with in these col
umns, and then speaks of the Paris
venture, making a feature of the sew
age farm at Acheres.
The inhabitants of Paris number
over 100000, and the total flow of
sewage is stated to average Tin our
measurement) 17660,000 cubuc feet
per diem. This is collected in inter-
cepting sewers, which convey it by
gravitation down to Clichy, where it
is raised 118 feet by powerful pumps
and distributed by gravitation
through the farm. The pumping
engines are capable of Indicating
5000 horsepower. 1t is stated that
experience shows that one acre of
suitable soil can take 1880 cubic
feet of sewage daily, so that an area
of about 1l,200 acres would be need
ed to deal with the whole of the dis
charge of the Paris sewers.
A very high degree of publication
Is reached, the effluent containing
fewer bacteria per cubic centimeter
than most uncontaminated streams.
The land also has been greatly in
creased in value, being now worth
five times as much as it was before
being made receptacle for the
sewage. AS a natural consequence,
neighboring land owners who orig
inally had fiercely opposed the es-
tablishment of a sewage farm in
their midst are now demanding to
have the sewage applied to their own
farms
The farm at Acheres is 2,471 acres
in extent and is under the control of
civil engineer, who in the main
raises beet root, though his crop will
admit of much less sewage being
passed on to the land than certain
others. The main conveying the
sewage from the pumping station is
inches in diameter, while a Sec
ondary system of pipes ranging from
81 to 16 inches in diameter serves
as feeders to the irrigation trenches,
into which the sewage passes
through 12-inch valves. The ground
is laid out and the irrigating
trenches are SO arranged that the
only service needed in regulating the
flow is the opening and closing of
the regulation valves just men
toned.
The crop which stands the mos.
sewage is grass, a meadow, it is
stated being uninjured by flow
of 2,430,000 cubic feet per acre per
year; lucerne can take 100000 Gu
bic feet per annum, artichokes $685.
600; flowers, parsley, sorrel, ETC.,
$4,000 cubic feet; leeks, cabbages
and celery, $4,000, while beet roots,
carrots and beets will take only 197,-
600, and potatoes, asparagus and
peas but 141,OO0 cubic feet per acre
