The purâ€" chase of the water leak detector has indeed justified itself, as your water department is now in a fair position to break even on its expenses as balâ€" anced against its revenue. Deerfileld Legion Member Succumbs The expenses are figured as the cost of water (15¢ per: hundred cubic feet) plus the cost of mainteâ€" nance, repair, billing, etc. The revâ€" enue is figured at an approximate average of the 32¢ per hundred eubic feet which is your net price. There are other leaks in our vilâ€" lage water system, however, which you can correct. These are leaks inside homes and business establishâ€" ments which are actually recorded on your meter and cost you money. It is suggested that you examine your water system and if any leaks are found, be sure the condition is corrected by new washers, new fullâ€" er balls, or even a new fixture.
