Fenton River.

This water is low in mineral con tent and is soft. The organic content is not excessive and the chlorine is just slightly above the normal, the nor nal for this region being about 21 parts per million. The numbers of bacteria are high and colon bacilli we're found in one cubic centimeter volumes of the water. This water is receiving objectionable contamination this time and is not safe water for drinking purposes. As I have ire quently stated, water showing the presence of sewage contamination is used in some places for long periods without producing epidemics of typhoid fever because the persons contributing g to the contamination are not suffering from the disease during such periods. The use of such water, however rep resepts 8 continual menace to the public health and needs only one case of typhoid fever among the people on the drainage area to cause serious re- suits

Natchaug River.

From a chemical and physical stand point the above results are about the sa me as those obtained from the other samples. The number of bacteria growing on gelatin is rather high, but colon bacilli were not isolated from this sample. While from a bacteriolog- ical standpoint this water appears to be the safest of the four sources at this time. a number of examinations would be necessary to determine whether intermittent contamination is affecting the water.
