The, Cameron Septlc rank COM
pany Of Chicago, Illinois, has just
completed the building of one Of
their Septic Tank Systems of
Sewage Disposal for the Santa
Fe here, which will care for the
sewage Of the Harvey House, the
Depot and the Reading Room.
H. D. Wyllie has had charge of
the work, being assisted by
George Spooner of this place.
The system is the result Of
many years of investigation and
study, which had it's beginning
in England, later being contin-
ued in this country by the CanSa-
rons. The theory of the system
is that nature will care for itself
and the thing to do is to assist
nature. The Investigations ard
experiments showed that in the
matter of putrefaction and nitFi-
fcation of sewage or waste INST
ter, nature had provided that the
sewage matter would produce
putrefactive germs, which have
been called anaerobes, which v.r-
tually destroyed the solids of the
sewage matter by their work Of
| liquification. 1t was also learned
through the experiments that
i under certain conditions this pro-
cess was greatly enhanced, and
lit is to provide thes4 conditixas
Hthat the Cameron people have
undertaken to assist nature.
| Ideal conditions are provided for
the development and activity of
the anaerobes by excluding all
air, light and agitation. A con-
crete tank air tight and light
proof is provided, of suitable
dimension to care for the
amount of sewage estimated.
Sufficient water is introduced so
that when the sewage is carried
into the tank, the solids will float
on the water. Under the ideal
conditions provided, nature does
her part without the loss of time,
by providing a colony of the an
aerobes, which is spontaneously
, increased or diminished in size
according to the amount of solid
matter in the sewage. These
! germs quietly accomplish their
work of liquifying the solids. In
the smaller tanks this liquid is
disposed of by seepage after hav-
ing been allowed to pass from the
tank by means of suitable valves.
In the larger systems, and where
the effluent or reulting liquid is
of larger quantities, beds of coke,
cinders or furnace slap are provi-
|
ded for the nitrification and fl
, tration of the eff1uent from the
: septic tanks to the filtering beds
is arranged by automatic gears,
} so that no attendant is necessary.
/ Where desired, the effiuent can
: be retained after nitrifcation and
used in various ways. This has
been economically arranged at
the plant used for the disposal of
the sewage of Ell Tovar and
Bright Angel Hotels at Grand
Canyon, Arizona, where water is
! not to be had in abundance. The
5 eff1uent after filtration is passed
to the stationary and locomotive
boilers, and is claimed by the
J chief engineer to be the best
| boiler water, besides the addi-
tional item of saving the railroad
company So, 100000 per month for

r the warmest weather. Plants

of the union, and all are receiv-
ing the highest praise. In New
Mexico, the Santa Fe has had
such plant at San Marcial g to
care for the sewage of the shops.
The Normal School at Silver City
is provided with a system, which
is giving good satisfaction. w.
H. Bartlett has a plant installed
at his ran h home at Vermejo, in
the northern part of the state.
The Santa Fe also has systems
working at their Topeka shops
and likewise at Chanute, Kan
sas. No better testimony of
their opinion could be had than
that they have just installed a
plant here at Belen and have con-
tracted for a like plant at Las
Vegas. The plant at Belen has a
tank 8x8x42 feet in dimensions,
and is arranged to care for sew
age up to $4,000 gallons daily.
George Spooner is making ar
rangements to install a plant at
his residence, in the western part
of town. Naturally this will be
on a much smaller scale, and less
expensive. The waste from the
kitchen sink will be sufficient to
provide the tank with the neces-
sary water, which after passing
through the tank and being puri.
fed. will be. used for -sub4;rLipa,
tion of the garden and lawn, thus
being turned to economical
usage.
The caring for sewage in this
matter is far more sanitary than
the usual methods of turning it
into some stream of out on open
land, where disease is carried in
all directions. The cost of the
system is proportionately small.
Systems of sufficient capacity for
private homes can be installed
for about eighty dollars, and
larger ones in proportion. These
are guaranteed to do the work
for a term of twenty-five years,
and backed by a company fnan-
cially able to do what it agrees.
The Cameron Company is the
owner of the original United
States patent covering the Septic
Process. Upon application, these
people will give plans and speci-
fications for the complete system,
| the cost of the license varying
according to the size of plant tc
be installed.
In a city like Belen, where the
question of sewage disposal will
have to be met, there is probably
no other system so sanitary and
free from the Objectionable stencil
and orders, and at the same time
so inexpensive as the Septic Tank
System. Further information
may be had by applying direct to
the company, or to George
Spooner, the local representative.
(This is not a paid article nor
advertisement from which we
derive any pecuniary gain. 1t is
published because we believe the
system explained herein will be
of value to our people, not only
in dollars and cents, but in the
saving of lives by prevention of
