II. B. Mathews and e. J. Ray, along
with J.. P. Soderstrum, engineer, and
E. w. Hyde, superintendent Of the
power plant, drove to Madison yes
terday to inspect the septic tank at
that city with the object Of obtaining
information for the construction Of a
new septic tank for the Brookings
sewage system. They found the Mad
ison tank working less satisfactorily
than the one here in Brookings, so no
help was found at that source. The
city authorities are not satisfied with
the present septic tank and when o
new one is installed they want it to
be of an improved design.
