NOTICE. lanagor. _ In diseassing the subject of VENT- ILATION of sewers he says the health of asewered district largely depends on the efficiency of the sew- er ventilation. He then treats of the: dangers to life and health of poisoned sewar gas entering dwellings, and its prevention. I can only note, a. few points that he refers to. He strongly urges the necessity of’sew- er ventilation in some way or other. He says if there is astrong and rap- id! stream in the sewer acurrent of air is produced in the same direc- tion as the sewage stream. In that 0350 most of the openings will be in- lets for fresh' air drawn in by the current of air beneath, which finally escapes through the outfall sewer and causes ventilation. Changes of external temperature affect the movements of the sewer air. . Any great or sudden increase in. amount of sewage, as often occurs in the early part of the day, or the blowing of steam from factory boilers into sewers causes arise of pressure, and unless ample ventilation be provided, "house traps will be forced.” The same results may, take place after heavy rains. where, storm waters are admitted into sewers. He then says, “Openings into the crowns of sewers flrom the surface of the roadway SHOULD BE MADE at distance»:' of not more than 100 yards apart. Some of th ass will act as inlets and others as outlets, and; this pressure of air in» the sewers will at no time be able to rise sufficiently to force the traps on hdase pipes and drains. Where the sewers are insnfliciently ventilate ad or where the openings _are block: ad or clogged? . . . the air majes- mpe into the house. “During heavy rams the tuning water. if admitted into the sewers, will force the con- fined air through trapped or untrapâ€" pad openings into the home."
