The method by which Uncle Sam, acting through the U. s. Public Health Service, purifies tn edrinking water subject to rapid changes in turbidity not altogether new. carries some in teresting lessons for the country at large and particularly for towns sit uated along tidal rivers.
 The raw water, which is pum ped from the Susquehanna River through 30 inch mains to settling tanks, is million: and the amount of alumin- ranging from 10 to 100 parts per um sulphate to be added as a, coagu- Iant and precipitant must be varied to suit. Samples of the water en- terfng the mains are taken every two to be added is determined by the chart based on the amount of water and its turbid!ty; for instance o.6 grain of the alum is added for 10 parts per million of turbidity. This amount. however. is also governed by the alkalinity, which may vary great ly during the day; when it drops be- low II parts per million soda asn is added
 Two hours are allowed for settle ment in the tanks. after which the water flows by gravity Through me chanical rapid sand filters, passing through three feet of sand and eight inches of stone and gravel at the rate of two inches in 55 seconds.

MAY HOLD UP SEWER WORK
 IN OCTOBER

That the sewer work in Stratford may be halted in October because of the s1owness in collecting taxes was brought out at a special meeting Of the Board of Finance last evening, when 8 special tax of two-thirdS of one mill was discussed as a means of relieving the present deplorable con- dition of the fire department
 One man remarked that he believed the citizens of Stratford who would get to a town meeting early enough to get within voting distance would turn down a tax if the money was to be spent to build a ladder to Heaven and admission was going to be free.
 Because of the unemployment the taxes have been coming in mighty slow and there seems nothing to do but to give the hard hit taxpayers chance to pay up as soon as they can However, the fact reanins that in October an amount estimated at s1OO,OO0 will be necessary Ito continue with the sewer construction, which at the present time seems in danger of being temporarily halted.
