ELLSWORTH WATER.

Another Analysis by Director of State
Laboratory of Hygiene.
Another analysis has been made OF the
Ellsworth water by II. d. Evans, director
Of the Maine laboratory Of hygiene at
Augusta. The analysis, the figures Of
which are for parts in 100000, is as follows:
, Date of collection, April II, 1911; examina-
tion, April IL.
Appearance Turbidity, o; sediment, o.
color, IL.
Odor-Cold, none; hot, vegetable.
Residue on evaporation-Total, 800; loss on
ignition, 80; fixed residue, 1.70.
Ammonia-Free, .0ols; in solution, Obs.
Chlorine-0A.
Nitrogen-Nitrates, none; nitrites, none.
Oxygen consumed, SO.
Hardness-l.40.
Alkalinity-G.5.
Iron-.0l2.
Lead-None.
Colon bacillus-None.
Bacteria. per c. c.-l25o.
In a letter accompanying the analysis, Dr..
Evans says
The analysis OF the spring sample Of water
from your public supply, sent to me on
the 1ith inst, shows the water to be in
good condition to use for all domestic pur-
poses. There is no chemical or bacterial
evidence of sewage pollution of this water.
The water has changed but little since the
last analysis, while what change there has
been is but the natural result of the change
in the season. In its present condition this
water would be considered frst-class one
to be used for drinking.

Thu POLL BOOKS
TO Be REVISED
Election Commissioners Meet Monday
To Commence The lmpor-

The statutes provide that the county
boards of election commissioners must
meet on Monday to commence the
work of revising the poll books, elm
mating therefrom the names of all
persons not qualified electors.
The law allows only ten days for
the completion of this task-at least,
the commissioners cannot receive pay
for more than ten days of work-and
it is probable that the full period
named will be consumed in majority
of the counties, as an insistent de-
mand is being made that the revision
be thorough These boadrs are COM
posed of one member representing
each of the senatorial candidates.
Calls are being issued for county
executive committees to meet on
Tuesday, July IS, the date fixed by
statute, to name judges, clerks and
bailiffs for the election on August |.
This work must be done on Tuesday
in every county in the state. Each
| committee is expected to. appoint a
ticket committee, and this body will
prepare the form of the official bal
lot, while other committees will see
that the poF books and ballot boxes
are properly distributed.
