 F'airview reservoir has been aug
 mented by the rainfall, but it is esti- mated that it is still 426,O00,O0O gal Ions from 8 full pond.
 A tive of W. & E. Doug las was in Norwich Tuesday. inspect ing the installation at Trading Cove He stated that the pumps supplied the city were capable of delivering one million gallons of water in twenty four hours against a head of 360 feet l This would require a greater pres sure on the pipes than at 284 12 feet which is the head to be overcome wher Fairview reservoir is full. At the Norwich State hospital a pump is in- stalled that forces the water into the same pipe from which water flows from the reservoir. The reservoir is 157 feet higher than the pump and the pump is deep well pump that takes water from an artesian well. The in- take of the pump is 100 feet below the ground so that the pump is operating against a head of 257 feet and deliver ing the water into the reservoir wheT there is any surplus. This pump oper- ates practically as the pump will op- crate at Trading Cove. except that the conditions are less favorable al the hospital, owing to the great sue ton necessary to draw the water from a depth of 100 feet The pumps al Trading Cove have only about feet to draw from the intake pipe.
