garbage man comes round to collect
his quota he finds a clean can. He
is not faced with wet, dripping re-
fuse and in cold weather he does not
take pick and batter the can in or

merely loads the prepared garbage
into a large steel box, somewhat re.

one hundred feet capacity. He hauls
this to a central transfer station,
where the tanks are lifted off the
wagon truck by means Of an electric
hoist and placed upon fiat cars
which convey them to the crematory

cars soon reaches the crematory just

much. All Igot was one inland let

that if there is a big government
mail, sometimes, other mail is left

kind out here though, and having no
letters this week, will make it easier
for me to get caught up, as have a

The Way to Keep a City Clean.

Minneapolis is blazing new trail.
She has found out that no city that
wants to be clean city can neglect
Its garbage handling, and has
gone to work to set pace for the
rest of US. The real beauty of it,
too, is that she has solved the garb-
age probiem-or more nearly solved
it thar hes anybody else, up to date.
She may be said to stand first in the
list of cities in America in the solu-
ten of the sanitary disposal of the
refuse. and other towns are sending
delegations to inspect this garbage
system. Winnipeg has already pat
termed after it.
Nearly four years ago this cam,
palgn to handle garbage without
nuisance was started, and today it is
pronounced an unqualified success.
No more are there foul. maggoty

wife shall drain the garbage of ali
moisture and wrap it in paper be-
fore putting it in the can. This not
only insures a clean can but the spa
ces between the paper allow the air
to circulate and keep the garbage
from freezing and adhering to the
can in cold seasons. In other words,
heat, moisture and the fly are all
eliminated. Any kind of paper can
be used, but as rule there is plenty
of wrapping paper that is always
coming around packages from the
grocer and butcher. as well as old
newspapers, that the housewife is

enterprise near Cedar in San Miguel
county, Colorado. | will say that
have finished the survey of two res
orvoirs this summer, one OF which will
contain ten thousand. seven hundred
acres of water one foot deep with a
dam requiring fifty-six cubic yards of
dirt to the acre foot of water. The
other one will store about ten thous.
and acre feet with a less quantity of
dirt in the dam. There is plenty OF
dirt available for building the dams at
small cost and the reservoirs are
ideal for holding water.
These reservoirs are so situated as
TO cover the entire valley of thirty
thousand acres or more. by means of
about eight miles of ditch to the up
per part of the land to be watered.
