against distase. Mr.. johnson shows by
very reasonable estimates that the use
OF pure water annually saves from the
ravages of waterborne typhoid fever
alone more than four times the cost OF
| purifying the water. The substitution
of pure for impure water supplies in the
| United States would save annually
some 10000 lives and fully S20000,O00.
| The paper includes historical sketch
of modes or systems of water purifica-
ton. from the storage works and clari-
fcation by alum used by the ancient
Chinese to the presnt-day methods OF
| filtration, coagulation, and sterilization
| Preparatory treatment, in which the
water is passed through sedimentation
tanks, coagulation basins, or roughing
filters to remove portion Of its color
or turbidity, is discussed in detail
In slow sand filtration water is pass
ed slowly through great beds of fine
sand, on which it leaves its impurities.
Illustration OF several successful slow
sand filtration plants are given and
special features of construction, sand
handling, sand washing, and the opera
ton are explained and discussed, The
costs of construction and of mainte
nance and operation are shown if detail
for number of plants Of this type. The
report also describes and illustrates in
similar manner rapid sand filters,
which differ from slow sand filters chief
ly in being constructed in smaller units
and Of eoarser sand, in always having
coagnlation as preliminary treatment,
in being operated about 40 times as fast,
and in being cleaned by sending a re-
verse current of water through the fl
tiers.
The softening OF municipal water sup
plies in connection with their plrifica
ton is discussed and the advantages and
limitation as well as the details of this
treatment are set forth in instructive
detail. Hard waters produce scale in
and shorten the life of boilers, causing
waste of coal. They are i'll suited to the
needs of many water using industries
and cause an enormous waste of soap in
and in ordinary domestic OPP
In many instances the saving
IF soap is alone sufficient to pay the
,osts of softening.
