PURE WATER SUPPLY c X WORRIES SCIENTISTS EAt Philadelphia, on tlio banks of e Schuylkill, (unent brick, building Is Enow in cottrso of erection in which n nillion gallon of thin filthy stream rvill be daily converted into pure, Sparkling wnter, frco from organic imr iiiuriiiPH nmi impiorin.

Hunugiuer nuupen, micro mu rivur Teeming with mlcrobic life, is foul to he atght and Bmell, and as dangerous fo tho laito or pruKirfc ncld, in order 'to demonstrate, bevond tho shadow of j,a, doubt, the efficiency of n system of f'wntcr purification which Js destined to revolutionize existing mothods of sup- Ijpjy water to cities. Across, tho Dcln- yBwnro river nt Camden, a more conven- ,Ifnt location could huvo been, secured for this plant at one-half tho cost of .that on the Schuylkill; but filthy nnd ,fyll smelling ns.tbo Delaware river is, iuden with disease gornis as its sand iypis been shown to bo, its waters nro jft-lean in comparison with (ho open iiscwer '-into which tho Schuylkill has Ccen converted; nnd this consideration determined' tho directors of the United tenter Improvement Company to pay - a; large rental for the opportunity to , use for their demonstration what their engineer called tho "rottencst wnter" 2i& Pennsylvania. Tho city of Putin- fcotupnia is sponaing over tnirty million jfdpllnrs on a slow sand filtration plant iu tho hope of reducing tho high death rate from typhoid fever which hns .long characterized the city. When tho enormous outlay wns authorized, tho art of water purification had advanced $0 furthor than sand filtration; und ftMtbougk it was known that sand 111 TratIon could only reduce tho typhoid rate to a degree, and could not en tirely climlnato tho dread germ from (he water, it was tho best and most jsricntlflc method of water purification 0tia large sculo then known to tho frond. Purification by ozono was but an interesting laboratory experiment. Sineo then an electrical gqnluH has ad vanced it to n commanding position fnr abovo that of nny previously known method of purifying water for clttcs. Suddenly tho entire scioneo of public water supply has beon revolu tionized. Great and costly filter areas, uncertain In operation, Ineomplnto in efllclency, und expensive to maintain, have In a day,' as it were, been made obsolete and unnecessary. Tho vaunted reduction of typhoid fover by sixty or seventy per cunt becomes, by ozono sterilization, a full hundred per cent. Tho necessity of seoklng distant and unpolluted supplies, with tho great cost of transportation, Is now done away with; for almost ovory city Ihih, at Its own doors, water that can, by ozons purification, bo mndo as whole some as the best of mountain springs, nnd oven freer from bacteria. To tho late Professor Tyndall Is at tributed tho. prophecy that before many' years a city would bo nblo to tako Its sewage, and, by a perfected system of purification, convert it into Its ojjru water supply. It is not likely that the great English scientist in- 'tended his prediction to be taken liter ally. Nevertheless it has come true. If it were necessary or otherwise do sirable, a city could take Its own sow ngo nnd convert It Into a clear sweet stream of sparkling water. This is scienco's latest contribution to the eomfort and safety of human life. That (ho foulest water, full of dis ease gorhis and filth, could bo purified and sterilized by ozono nnd made fit for human consumption was known fully n dozen yenrs nco. That the siuno process of purification removed nil objectionable tnstc, smell nnd color from tho wator was also known. Even tho tinge Imparted to wnter by iron was found to bo easily removed; but, as already stated, this was at first but a laboratory experiment. Later soino uttempts ut a practical application of ozono to the water supplies of cities were made, but until tho Dutch scien tist, Vosmner, invented a method of producing the silent brush dlschargo without, the use of dielectrics, the at tempts invariably failed through the breaking down of tho dielectric. To sum up the advantages of ozoniz- atlon over sand filtration, the ovldcnco shows that: I. Ozonization gives nbsoluto bac terial purity; filtration docs not. 2. Ozonization costB less for install ation nnd operation, tho difference in some cuscs being only one-sixth for in stallation and piio-quartcr for opera tion. 3. An ozonizntion plnnt enn be built to supply the largest cities in a fow montliR; n filtration plant takes years. I. The purifying mnchlncry covers n fow hundred feet in case of ozoniza tion; in filtration nny .acres aro needed. G. With ozonization tho nearest body of fresh wnter can be purified for human consumption regardless of Its condition; with flltrntion this is not possible in tho neighborhood of larco cities. 0. With ozonization tho decrco of purity is constnnt; with flltrntion it is imperfect, intermittent, and depondont on tho enro of attendants. An ozonizing plnnt can havo its capacity doubled at slight cost, in llttlo time, and with a reduction of tho ratio of oporotlng expenses: In flltrn tion, costs ure doubled throughout and years of preparation nro required. n . During epidemics ozonization gives tho wator supply nbsoluto Htor- titty; (lltrutioii ran only do Its best, which Is imperfect. t. Oronization destroys tho bacillus dysentrlae, tho supposed cnuso of cholera morbus and other summer dis eases Involving great Infant mortal ity; filtration does not appear to affect it. 10. Ozonization destroys tho spores of cronothrlx, which fill tho water mains with organic growth and dimin ish their capacity; filtration docs not, 11. Ozonization frees wator from objeetlonnblo colors, odors nnd taste; flltrntion does this Imperfoctly. 1!!. Finally, ozono aerates nnd re- generates tho water; filtration does not. 3E-OC SE , dKt. 9 I iK) An An rMKV -fiHLaHk MOK IV . HV !!
