tho nearby town wator main from glen edon lake to milton would be the most feasible solution tho milton lino bypassos those homos by only a few yards and this would bo considerably cheap er than sotting up tholr own municipal supply ho said thl only other alternative would be to dig doopor wells dr stewart said this could solve tho problem in some cases but it could cause tho residents to go
