1 i 1 i I 1 i State Health Department Insists oo a Sewage Disposal Plant. PLANS ALREADY ADOPTED A Bond Issue Will be Necessary to Provide Funds for the Improvement. IT IS NOW UP TO THE YOTERS Indiana faces a serious problem in the matter of the disposal of the sewage. At present the contents of the sewers are simply allowed to flow over the field owned by the borough near Reed station whence it makes its way into Stony Eon, a tributary of Twolick creek. Stony Ran traverses a number of farms between the sewer outlet and the creek, the owners of which last summer complained to the State Board of Health that the pollution of the stream by the sewage had resulted in a nuisance.

Some of them are dairymen, and they alleged that the buyers of their milk, featiig contamination. had refused to buy or threatened to quit baying milk from them. A representative of the State Board came to Indiana and thoroughly went over the situation. Hi3 subsequent report to the Board was to the effect that the situation was bad and that Indiana borough Ehould be compelled I to pnrify the eS-ient of its sewers before allowing it to enter Stony Run. The Board thereupon denied the bor- ougb the privilege of making addition-1 sewerage connections and gave no-J tice that plan cation must be for a system cf purin- aubmitted tc the Board.

This matter was at once taken up i Borough Engineer has since been at work formulating plans and 1 designing socb a plant ss would meet, with the approval of the State aatfaor- itiea. It was a big task, as the matter of sewage purification i3 still in its in-' fancy in this country and there is not much in the way of established practice to guide one. The systems decid- ed upon by Colnmbns, O. and Wash ington. York and Wayne, in this state.

as well as some successful systems in England, were studied, with the re- suit that Engineer M-IIen has adepted the most efficient and mast economical features of ths plants mentioned and has embodied them is hi3 plans fcr a system fcr Indiana.
