SEWAGE CLEANSfS
HULLS OF VESSELS
Ordinarily Useless Refuse Found
to Kill Marine Vegetable
and Animal GroWths

ALAMEDA, Jan. 29.-Sewage empty
Packers association in the estuary off
the north end of Sherman street has
saved thousands of dollars annually to
the big salmon canning corporation, ac-
cording to representative of the con-
cern. The sewage matter, mixed with
the fresh water that CONVEYS it through
the conduits into the ship basin, is said
to destroy the destructive teredo and
other animal and marine growths that
attach themselves to the hulIs of the
vessels. Ships that have been towed
into the basin incrusted with a heavy
animal and vegetable growth have aft
er lying for time in the sewage i'm
pregnated water. become almost as
clean as If the vessels had been
scraped on a drydock or marine rail-
way.
The value of sewage in Kidding ships
of marine animal and vegetable para
sites has been known to shipping men
on the estuary for some time. but it
was not until recently, when there was
a general discussion as to where the
proposed south side sewer should empty,
that the value of sewage in cleaning
ships was learned by city officials
While City Engineer L n. Chapman
was seeking a route for the proposed
sewer he engaged representative of
the Alaska packers in conversation
concerning the matter. Chapman was
surprised when the packers said that
the association would be pleased to
have all of the sewage drained IRON
this city empty into the ship basin in
the estuary. The packer said that the
sewage which has for years emptfed
into the estauary had proven an eco
nomical cleanser OF the bottom of
ships, and asserted not enough sewage
could be emptied into the ship basin to
please the packing association.
In proof OF the fact that the teredo
does not like sewage infected water
City Engineer Chapman cites the fact
that the old wooden sewers laid out
into the estuary on the north side years
ago are still intact and free of teredoes.

Independents May Organize

1t now seems as if the independent
agencies will close their doors unless
a greater proportion of the producing
companies and those which are about
to become such join forces with those
producers who have organized them
selves for their mutual benefit and
protection. AS the agencys plan has
been sufficiently successful to raise the
price of oil from below, 20 cents to
about so cents barrel, it would seem
that producers generally would par
take of membership in the organiza-
tion, but that is not the case. Num-
bers of these are holding out. and un-
less they or a majority of them do
come in there will be no recourse for
the agency but to close the door and
prepare to become a corporation, pro-
ducing and handling it's own oil to its
own advantage, regardless of what
effect its course may have upon

It is stated that some of the ore

the Giant King should be one of the
largest properties in the county, as the

From Coalinga comes the report that
less than 10000 barrels of oil of the
agency members have been shipped
from the field this month through the
new pipe line of the Producers trans
portation company. The Associated
pipe line is still out of commission, and
it may be a week or more before this
company is in shape to resume pump
ing.
. The leases throughout the field are in
badly congested condition and the
agency executives in Los Angeles are
considering the situation. 1t is limited
that cessation of pumping will be or
dered until the pipe line is In shape to
remove the congestion. but substantial
tion of this rumor has not yet been re-
ceived.

full, and there is no place to put the

ready for service in a month, and un-
less the Associated line is ready for de-

not receive a very large income from
their production this month
