septic tanks with no outlet drains.
‘the more generous use of water,
added to the replacing of soap by
detergents, has already caused some
home-owners costly alterations Jn
this area,
‘Those who made fields with
outlet drains running from the sep-
tic tank are more fortunate. And
‘those who have in addition a sep-
arate drain for wash water are in
even a better position. The use of
T-pipes within the tank itself
should not be overlooked, and the
reason for its necessity can be ex-
‘plained by your plumber,
Our neighbors to the South
have a modern solution, approved
by department of health oe
for closely populated rural areas.
stel pipe carrles the septic tank
outflow to cement distributor box,
which is situated in the selected
drainage area, From this box.three
to five weeping tile drains run in a
more closely confined rectangular
arca. Terminating in this box is the
drain from the Inundry tub outlet,
and as a result the contents within
the distribution box are regularly
flushed out. Coming at this delayed
interval, the addition of soapy
wastes at this time will not inter-
fere with the bacterial break-down
acion that is required within the
tank itself.
‘Taking all this Into serlous con-
sideration, it will be seen that it
would be an economy to do things
right in the first place, and money
spent with foresight will be a sound
investment.
However, it would be impossible
to find sufficient drainage areas in
@ thickly populated area, and for
such, a sowage disposal system ts
the solution,
‘However there ts another side
of the problem regarding the ulti-
mate disposal of the waste matter.
There are today objections to the
continued pollution in ever increas-
dng amounts of pollution in our

mptied in it by drainage pipes.

May I draw the attention of

remedy for all time, since not only
the disposal of sludge but of gars

barnyard wastes os a soll-building

to say, fish, ducks, etc., already af-
