COUNCIL AFTER
METER II ! I R QUESTION
Geo. W. Carpenter again Appoint
ed City Engineer

The council met in regular ses-
sion last Monday and many mat
ters Of Importance were decided.
The matter of overcharge for
meters was discussed very thoroly,
and committee was appointed
at the last meeting to look into the
matter of alleged overcharge with
Alderman Lester as chairman and
Aldermen Pritchard and McBath
as members. They will make a.
thoro investigation Of the matter
and report at the next meeting Of
the council. The matter of better
meters for the flush tanks was men
toned, it being the contention of
Alderman Luck that the city was
paying for more water than it was
using, under the present method
of computing the amount of water
used. The committee appointed,
will also Investigate this matter,
and also determine as to the COM.
pany's right to charge separate
water rate to several families liv-
ing in the same building using
water running thru common
meter.

twenty five acres of land on the
shores Of Lake Pelican for use as
a dump ground. Only two pieces
were offered for sale. twenty-five
acres belonging to S. A. Schoon-
over and twenty-five acres to Thos.
McBath. The council finally de.
cided to purchase twelve and half
acres from each, paying therefor
$75 per acre. The parties wanted
sos per acre, but finally accepted
the price offered by the council.

Preventing Disease.

One Of the most significant and
cheering features of the annual re-
ports OF the different large cities Of
the country for the last year is the
showing by the health boards OF a
generally decreased death rate.
Many agencies have contributed to
this result and there is every evidence
of growing popular interest in work
for health conservation.
Much OF this improvement is due to
the growing conviction among physi-
clans and public officials generally
that diseases are not Individual, but
In many cases social Lack OF nutri-
trioD. wretched housing conditions,
filthy streets and unsanitary condi-
tons generally are found back OF tu-
berculosis, typhoid and most OF the
children's diseases. Poverty, ignor-
anee and evil environment are the
most prolific sources OF sickness, and
their removal becomes as much a pub
lie duty as II is the duty OF the physi-
clans to treat the PHYSICAL ills OF his
patients.

ton of his new construction Is located
at Cambridge, in Isanti County. In
this district there Is nothing but sand
Tor top soil, and 1t is impossible to
preserve a road without adding some
other material. Mr. Cooley finally
decided that sawdust was the COM
ponent necessary. and four-inch lay
er OF this was raked into a stretch
or road which had been carefully
graded. Passing teams thoroughly
ground together this mixture, and
whenever ruts were worn into the
surface they were filled with fresh
sawdust. The fine particles OF wood
gradually rot. forming heavy loan
