CITY NOW FACES
SEWAGE PROBLEM
Growth of Additions Tax
ing Present Capacity Of
Drainage System.

Considerable attention is being given
by the city council to the proposition
of assessing a charge for the use IF
the city sewers by residents living out
side the city limits 1t is probable that
very soon. as indicated by The Herald
recently. an ordinance viii be drafted
fixing a charge to be made.
The city has never made any charge
for the use OF the sewers by people in
outlying additions a charge for con-
nectiOn has been made. but the use Of
the sewer thereafter has been free. The
severely tax some of the sewers, and
look at the matter in the light that If
the city they should pay for the use Of
the sewers that connect with the sys-
tens in the additions in which they
live
The city faces something Of a prob
lem in the disposal of sewage In July,
1917. the new state law prohibiting the
dumping OF sewage into rivers, will 90
into effect Unless some system is
adopted Of purifying the sewage before
it reaches the river, the city may be
enjOined from using the river at all It
is understood that the new law does not
prohibit the emptying of sewage into
rivers II purified. Plans have been
drawn by the city engineer for a septic
tank system for purifying the sewage
and it is probable that before many
months work will start on its instaIa-

AFTER THE WAR

The European war helps the sale Amerlcau machinery in Argentina, according to Special Agent J. A. Massel, of the Department Of Commerce. Apparently, some of Mr. Massers comments escaped the eye ct the censor in the department for they tend to contradict the as sertions of some of the department officials. "Tlhe great bulk of ma- cEiuery and machine tools in the Republic are of German make and now tuat this trade has been cut off, there will be an increasing de mand for machinery. Firms m the United States may get an oc- casionaI order during the continu- ance of the European waT, but once the war is ended and business re- sumes !ts normal aspect, trade will inevitably turn back to Europe again unless in the meantime in telligcut organization be effected and business efforts exerted to SC cure a satisfactorY share of it for the United States"
 That is just exactly what busi- ness men have been saying for months. The war Is all that stops the German export trade. As soon as the war is over, exports will begin again, not only to South Am erica. but to the United States as well, fer the protective tariff wall has been destroyed by the Demo cratic party.

SCOOPING UP WATER.
How a Fast Train Fills It's Locomotive
 Tank Without Stopping.


 Tank Without Stopping.
 Mir. Cecil J. Allen. chief of the civil engineers department, supplies Ia the Great Eastern Railway Magazine some interesting facts on ''the picking up of water by trains at full speed on long Journeys. Locomotives. he says. are ex ceeding bibuIOus creatures. The en zines of one large British railway alone consume some I2.5OO.OOO gallons of wa ter per aunum An express engine un ter normal conditions of running will consume from thirty to thirty-fvc gal rops of water for every mile covered taking a general average. On such a journey aS that made by the Cornish Riviera Limited Express of th' Great Western railway. from London to Plymouth 225A rniIes-the lonseS, lally nonstop run In the worId-somv four tons of coal are couSumed agamS an average of no less than forty tons f water.
 The trgughs. MT. Allen explains have usually a length of just over quarter of d mile and are laid pel fectlv level in the center of the "tou foot" Water Is taken from them by means of movable shovel shaped scoop" under the tender, which Is lowered into the trough as the train passes over 1t at full speed. The sharV edge of this scoop cuts of. as 1t were the "top layer" of the water. which forced up into large vertical pipe ant delivered through a mushroom head O an elbow at the top of the tender into the water tank. AS soon as the wate' gauge on the tender indicates that tn, tank Is full the scoop Is raised again According to the speed at which the train Is travelling, it is possible to lif' from 2,OOO to 3,COO gallons In about fifteen seconds.-Westminster Gazette.
