Alderman Frank Cole, chairman of
the street comirilttee, haB been investi
gating the' cost of a crematory as a
method for economical disposal of the
city’s constantly accumulating mass of
garbage. As now handled this refuse
s hauled out beyond the city Unfits and
dumped on vaennt lots owned bv differ
ent people, but we understnhd the" own
ers have notified the city authorities
that this will not bo permitted after the"
present year, the rubbiBh being of a
character that adds nothing to the' soil
value of the land, besides being un
sightly and often offensive, Hence the
city must make other arrangements for
its disposal. Alderman Colo is of the
opinion that the only satisfactory and
economical way to handle the situation
is for the city to build a crematory, and
to this end is getting estimates on -the
probable cost of an incineration plant
of sufficient capacity to answer require
ments for several years to come.
