Sewage Disposal
During the last few years the advance in sewage disposal has been conspicuous and most gratifying. It has been due not so much to the introduction of new methods of treatment as to a thorough trying-out of methods already known. Theories recently advanced have been put to practical test, and the published reports of successes and failures have helped much to establish in the minds of engineers clearer conceptions of the general principles involved. Through the mist of confused notions about septic tanks, contact beds and trickling filters, primary systems and secondary beds, and through the haze of bacteriological mysteries surrounding aerobic and anaerobic processes, experience and common sense are forcing their way and developing rational and practical methods of treatment. Of the new ideas, some have been already cast aside as unsatisfactory, impractical, or too expensive, while others seem likely to sink into innocuous desuetude before many years.
