The proper temperature in most in
stances is determined by the moun
of clothing worn or the character of
the employment OF the occupants or
their number The theory behind a
standard of go to IS for machine shops.
6s for shops, and SO for gymnasiums
is that the occupants. being engaged
in muscular work, cannot get rid Of
their supe:fluous heat if The tempera-
ture OF the air be higher. The supposi-
ton is that il the temperature OF the
air in churches is 65 and lecture halls

AS The aged are not good heat makers,
SO is get az the standard for old peo-

The same journal gives the follow
ing units Of heat made by certain
types OF individuals: Child 6 years

work, 500; man 80 years old in an

degrees Fahrenheit, 440; man 80 years
old in an atmosphere with a tempera-
ture of 81 degrees Fahrenheit. 600;
woman 30 years old, 4S0; per in old
age. $50.
These are no doubt observations
made of individuals. While an adult
doing moderate work would make 500
units of heat, n working harder
would make more than that.
In regulating h temperature of a
room ii is necessary to take INTO con-
sideration the number of the occupants.

Ions (estimated) daily, and also

Yet the distributing system is in

The Concrete Reservoir

This is twin reservoir with an
aggregate capacity Of about 900, ,000
gallons and is in fair condition with
the following exceptions:
The door fastenings and also the
indicator on the roof are in bad
order.
The trees and other vegetation at
and near the reservoir are getting
more water than the natural con-
ditions at this point would supply.
This water may be surface water
collected in the back GIL around the
walls Of the reservoir or may be
coming from leaks in the walls or
bottom Of the reservoir.
There is a clover patch on the
side Hill west Of the reservoir which
is more thrifty and green than II
was q month ago and also there is
a small spring at the foot Of the
bluff, below this clover, which is
discharging more than IL did

The Dam in PINE Creek

On assuming charge of the city

that the Pine creek dam held a very
small quantity Of water rs compared
TO It's total capacity. An oxamin'
alton Of the banks Of tho lake ~
vcalS the fact that at no time
during the proper filling period was
the dam reservoir more than one.
tenth full.
The dam is in bad order in the
following respects;
The sluiceway from the main gate
has washed out in the bottom,
The earth filling ON the west side
Of the sluiceway wall and brace has
washed away rs u probable result Of
a leak in the dam core.
The spillway and core show a
number OF cracks which seriously
impair the efficiency and stability
Of the dam.
The efficiency of the dam can bc
considerably increased by raising
the core wall above the spillway.
The spillway is now twenty inches
in depth. In my judgment half
this depth would be ample.
The Intake Well
The intake well il now located
about $50 feet below the point in
Pine creek where the water coming
from the dam raises from the sur
face Of the creek bed.
That the water is subject 10 pol
luton from the Purcell ranch is
very evident. This can be obyiated
by piping the water from where II
now comes to the surface Of the
creek bed to the intake well. or by
moving the intake well further up
the creek.
