reinforcing all the pipe lines along the
route. In addition to this there should be
a second reinforcing main on Pearl street
ten inches in diameter from Broadway to
Story street, and from each OF these rein
forcing mains there should be laid lateral
reinforcing pipes at least eight inches in
diameter to small pipes in the business part
of the city. SiX-inch hydrants, each with
a steamer nozzle as well as the usual hose
nozzles. should be substituted for the pres
ent four-inch hydTants In the business part
OF the city. A reinforcement OF this char
acter is imperative and should be made
without delay.
The city should soon provide for steamer

tanning high and large buildings
Regarding the establishment of a high
level water district for furnishing water
to the hill sections Of the city, Mr.. Kiersted
has this to say:
furnish good fire service in the low level
districts through the distributing pipes
properly reinforced, 1t is clear that that
fire service or even proper domestic service

satisfactory service throughout the hill dis
trict 1t Is necessary to establish an indie =
pendent high service station and to dis
connect the hill district from the low level
district, cCnfning the Glendale reservoir to
the low level district and providing ad-
ditional storage at higher level for the
hill district
The district northeast of Glen avenue and
Bryant street should be operated as a
high service district in order to provide
the necessary pressure throughout the high
ground of this district This can be ac-
complished by installing pumping ma
chinery at the Glendale reservoir and lift
ing from this reservoir such water as may
be needed for the high-service district to
the high point in Fairmount park imme-
diately adjoining the reservoir. on this
high point should be erected a small reser-
voir for the storage of the hill-district
supply. main pipe line not less than
twelve inches in diameter, or its equivalent,
should be laid along Park avenue, con-
meeting the high-service with the dis
tributing pipes on Pierce street, Broadway,
Vine street and Washington avenue. BY
this method the pressure In the pipes OF
the high-service district, as above described,
can be safely and advantageously increased
forty pounds.
Other improvements said to be much
needed. recommended by Mr.. Kiersted, are
new moderately high-duty pumping en-
CINE of a capacity of 100000 gallons per
twenty-four hours. installed in the Broad
way pumping station; extensions and i'm
provements for the present settling basins;
a brick building substituted for the present
frame building at the river station on
