Citizen No. = What d you think
of this waterworks proposition-this
'er filtration plant 1 heard something
about?"
citizen No. e: ooh. 1 dunno; don't
know much about it. Will 1t make us
pay bigger taxes?"
Citizens Nos. / and 2 are only two
of the hundreds of Topekans who have
not given the subject of improving and
charging the city water supply a
moments consideration. On Novem-
Der 2, when the general election will
be held, bonds for the proposed
s535,O0o filtration plant for Topeka
will be voted upon.
Many Want to Know.
Many people are asking me to ex-
plain the filtration plant proposition"
Wilbur A. Stanfield, commissioner OF
city water and lights said today. "Thcy
do not seem to know enough about It
to know how to vote. Some of them
without knowing "a thing about the
situation, decide that the old way is
all right. But an explanation always
changes their views in favor of the
filtration system"
For years past the city has been
endangering the health and safety of
it's citizens by tolerating the present
method OF water supply. Flourishing
colonies of 'pollywogs" have inhabited
the city water at frequent intervals for
number of years. boosting the city's
death rate; hotels, business houses and
other establishment have burned with
serious loss of life and property be-
cause of insufficient water supply
The scant supply of water has made it
impossible to flush the mains properly
and keep them sanitary. Boiling the
city water to make it drihkabIe has
become almost a regular duty with To-
peka house wives. The water has been
so hard it threatens to crack the
porcelain sinks when it runs from the
faucets. a

ID. McGiffert said today. But after I

cities. have talked to several expert
engineers about the matter. and have
seen the lively bugs that have been
found in the water furnished under
the present system. 1 rind myself one
of the strongest supporters of the fill
tration plant"
Dr. j. Crumbine, secretary of the
state board of health, says emphatical-'
~ that the state board would never ac-
cept as satisfactory for Topeka the
present plan of water supply, or any
plan except filtration.

Safeguard of Health.
Safeguarding of public health and

are considerations important enough

his vote for the filtration plant bonds,
but to warmly support the proposition
and to Influence other voters favor
ably,

cent of the water department revenue
will be used to pay the cost of THE
plant.
A Big Saving.
The saving of time and labor by
the consolidation of the light and wa
ter plants will mean considerable
saving, Commissioner Stanfield has
estimated. At the time the heavy load
IS on the light service, the water de-
mands decrease and the same plant
answers admirably for both power
purposes.
"instead OF costing the fburdened
taxpayer more money, it will tighten
his load" a man who has closely stu
led the proposition points out. The
filtration plant should really be well
coined by the poor man. Doctors at
tribute a large part of 5children's dis
eases to impure water: therefore. pure
water will save doctor bills: plumbers
say chemicals injure plumbing and
that soft, filtered water preserves
plumbing: soft water saves about so
per cent of the soap and washing pow
der required by hard water.V
Water Taken From Wells.
The water now used is taken from
several wells and is fit for use only
part of the time 1t is chiorinated
heavily. The chlorine clears the wa
| ter but does not make it pure. Water
taken directly from the river will be
pumped into the filtration plant.
where 1t will be treated as thoroly as
| is the well water now, then put thru
| a standardization process and finally
into the sand filters where sulphate of
aluminium is put into the water to
work with the sand in separating im-
purities from the water.
Ivory soap is not purer than the
city water should be when it comes
out of such a filtration plant" is the
opinion of City Engineer Baldry. En-
gineer Baldry furnished the accom-
panying plan of the present and pro-
posed waterworks plant.
The supply ofwater will be much
greater with the use of the filtration
| plant. The wells now in use will be
kept for reserve, used only occasional
| ly to keep them in sufficiently good
| condition. With the old wells furn-
ishing a large reserve supply, the city
will not need to worry over water for
fire protection.
To Use River Water.

Miss Miriam Daugherty, city bactefiol-

No altering of the old plant will

to cover the ground evenly, and pre-

the best and most even stand Of win

I also spread straw over part of

| 6-Will heavy oil aid in giving
more power delivery OF an old en-
CINE?
Heavier oil tends to give more
power to an old engine with worn
pistons, rings and cylinders because
it aids in filling the space between
these parts, giving smoother run
| ming engine and more compression.
ut also forms heavier coating on
| bearing surfaces.
What may cause bearings to
wear quickly even tho they are fit
ted correctly?
Beside lack of oil in the crank
case, another cause Of insufficient
fabrication of bearings, causing them
to wear quickly altho they are not
too tight, is the oil passages or
grooves in both halves Of the bear
ing being clogged with sediment or
too much graphite so that no oil can
get to the bearing surface.
s-What is the correct way and
how much gasolene should be used
to prime the cylinders before start
ing cold engine?
One printing cup full of gasolene
is sufficient to prime a cylinder of
| an engine when it Is cold. To insure
using the correct amount fill the cup
full before opening, then admit the
gasolene to the cylinder by opening
the stop cock.
9-Are more dry cells necessary to
start an engine in cold weather than
are required in summer?
AT least two additional dry cells
should be used in starting an engine
in cold weather, when dry cell igni-
| ton is used for starting purposes.
Cold atmosphere lessons the eff
cheney Of dry batteries.
10-Why will not the vanished
surface Of car retain its luster if
the machine is kept for long periods
in a barn?
A car which is housed in an ami
NAL barn for long period will not
retain it's body gloss because of "a
gaseous compound constantly passinS
off from manure. Varnish, or paint
| which contains varnish, is destroyed
by this nitrogen compound.
