Fuller-Miner Vows Are Exchanged
At Church Ceremony on Thursday
Late summer months are a
good time to check septic tanks,
suggests Don Coin Walrod, Coun­
ty Extension Agent. Most septic
tank problems occur during the
winter months when the ground
is generally saturated with water
and when it is usually most dif­
ficult to work around a septic
tank.
Solids which are removed from
sewage by the septic tank are
stored in 'the tank where they
are decomposed by the bacterial
action.
This decomposition is
produced by bacteria normally
contained in domestic sewage.
Contrary to some opinions, re­
search has shown that there is no
need to add yeast or similar com­
pounds to promote bacterial
growth in a septic tank, notes
Walrod. All s»wage solids will
not be completely decomposed.
Accumulation of this inner ma­
terial makes it necessary to clean
out the tank occasionally. It is
therefore a good idea to check
the contents of the tank every
two or three years, to see if clean­
ing is necessary, or better yet.
to insure good functioning of the
septic tank, make a regular clean
out about once every three years.
