HEALTH OF CITY
ASSURED in new
SEWAGE DISPOSAL
City Engineer to Use
Old Pipe Line to
Drain Streets

What disposal is mad of FL
Centre s sewage!'' is question
asked now and then by the new
conner, who contemplates settling
here, and it is a question that many
who have lived here for some time
cannot answer correctly. Most cities
are situated near some body of
water which takes care of the sew
age and this is the case with FL
Centre. Sewage from this city is
carried to a point about four miles
northwest of Imperial, where it
empties into New River, and is car
ried by that river eventually to
Salton Sea. Imperial's s sewage also
goes into New River at the same
point, the FL Centre sewer main
joining that of Imperial, short dis
tance from the latter city.
Ell Centro's sewer system, for
which bond issue of $250,000 was
voted in 1915, is adequate to take
care of the city's requirements for
years to come, and supersedes an
old system by which sewage was
carried to plot of ground about
four miles northeast of the city,
where after passing through a septic
tank, it was distributed over the
land and eventually evaporated. The
new system is built of brick, averag-
ing 27 inches in diameter to the
point wherefit merges with the I'm
perial system, and from that point
to New River, it is 33 inches in dia-
meter.

To Improve Drainage

According to +. G. Dyer, city en-
gineer, it is now planned to put the
old sewer system to use as storm
drain, to relieve the flooded condi-
tions which the city experiences
following rainstorm. Due to the
slight fall in the city streets, the
drainage problem is vexatious one
for the city, and it is hoped to rem
cdy this matter by using the old
sewage system.
'"The modern sewage system is
only one phase of the work the city
is doing to keep FL Centric clean and
hcalthful,' said Mr.. Dyer. "The
city employs three men whose bust
ness it is to keep the downtown
streets III clean condition, two of
whom start to work every morning
at ) o'clock and continue until 9
O'Clock. o A htird man starts at 8
% clock i'll the morning and works
all day. The two morning men 90
ON duty again at | clock in the
afternoon and work until 3. In this
way, the city streets are kept clean
and will compare favorably with
those of any city of similar size.
Proper disposal of sewage and
the necessity of keeping city streets
clean, are recognized as fundamen-
tai to the good health of a city and
1T is felt that any money spent in
this direction is an asset rather than
Il liability
