Notes on Irrigation, Roads, and Buildings And on the Water Supply of Towns

Excerpt from Notes on Irrigation, Roads, and Buildings: And on the Water Supply of Towns

Water Supply of Towns, although not a branch of irriga tion, has many features in common with it, particularly in regard to storage and consumption it differs from that in the necessity for Obtaining a sanitarily pure supply and in methods of distribution. There are many books and papers on this subject, and this Part does not pretend to be original. I trust, however, that I have arranged the descriptions of the various matters dealt with in a simple and easily intelligible manner.
