X TUB building of all country and village homes, and even in some parts of the larger cities, the matter of obtaining a convenient water supply and proper disposal of wstuja oiten presents serious problems. Whether the source of the water supply Is a creek, lake, well or cistern, does not affect the general arrangement of the plumbing sys tem. In the case of the cistern, however. It. Is always best to pJeca It outside ot the house and when It la to be depended upon as a water supply, it should have a capacity of about 00 barrels for the average houte. The old-time wind mill with a tank situated high In the air seems a slmpTc solution of Alie problem at first sight, but the constant repairs, the freeslng of the tnnk, in cold climates, the constant dan ger of being blown down, with the con stant menace to surrounding property renders this manner of supplying water lens desirable than In modern equip ment A few years ago, a tnnk In ihe attic iviCi a double acting hand-power pump In the basement was considered the be it solution of the problem, but this had its drawhacka. The tank was forever be coming empty just when water was needed quickly, and the labor of pumping It up, while really a needed exercise with the average householder, was not appre ciated as such. Alto, the tank In thla location In the colder climates sometimes froze, with unpleasant results. Home bright fellow then thought of hitching a pump by belt and Pulley to a gasoline engine, but an electric motor was quickly substituted wherever the current could tie obtained. Prom thla has developed the automatic pump whloh, in stead of pumping water into an open attic tank, pumps It into an air tight tank situated but a few feet from it !n the basement. To start with, the tank Is full of air, uaainst which Is pumped, by either elec tric motor or gasoline engine, the water. Air 'Will permit of considerable compres sion, but seemingly objects to close quar ters and exerts a powerful force against the water, which, when elected from a hose will send a stream to the top of a house. The same force sends the water to the second story bath room, and to all other plumbing fixtures in the house. When an electric motor ia possible, an ! automatic strange inert can be attached to the motor whleh starts the same aa soon aa the presaure in the tank has reached a certain low point which can be regulated according to needs, and shuts offthe motor aa toon as it has reached the maximum limit. This works automatically without any effort on the part ot the one drawing water, to that the water Is kept sbove a certain mini mum pressure at all times. This is by , , 1 i rf :.'

When no electric current Is available, a gasoline engine can tie provided to take Its place, but In this cuse the en gine must be started when the pressure becomes low and shut oft when It has reached the maximumlimit. The usual way of d(polne of the sewage is by a cesspool, and when the subsoil Is gravel or sand, this is the simplest and most satisfactory way ot disposing of it. When the subsoil Is clay, especially If it la wet clay, then the disposal of the sewage becomes more complicated, for seepage can not be do pended-upon. In a clay soil, It Is best to provide two cesspools .connected near tbe top. If the ground Is very wet, then a aeries ot amall shallow cesspools con nected near the top. ' If the ground is so wet that the matter of a cesspool is not pia. -tlcal at all, then the only so lution of the problem la to put. in the ground a wster tight masonry receptacle with a manhole at the top, placing one foot or two of dirt on it, but marking the location, ami with a vent plpa re sembling a rain water conductor, carried up the side ot the house and above the roof, this receptacle to be pumped out from time to time when required. When the sewage la carried to a creek or river Uiore should always be at least one, and better two, back water valves to prevent the water backing up when the rtver rites. Sewers of this nature must be perfectly straight, true and have a handhole at the house end so tl at It can be rodded Its full length at any time. Ordinarily, connecting with a creek or liver that docs not maintain an even level of water the year around Is not entirely sutlafactory, since back water frequently causes troubles beyond human power to prevent. There are septic tanks of many kinds for the purposes of sewage disposal, some of which work perfectly on a lurcio scale, but few of them give satisfactory re. suit on a small scale. In some suburban locutions complaint Is made ot cesspools In clay becoming sir bound. When this happens, It Is a aura sign that the plumbing system has not been put In' with the proper slxed vent stack through the root. About the most water that la allowed to pass to the cesspool at one time la from the bath tub and thla Is not near sufficient to air bind any cesspool, neither Is it possible to do so when the sewer pipe Is of sufficient slxe.

TIMELY REAL ESTATE GOSSIP Morton of Bealty Zichuife Oirei , Ides on City Planning. WANTS COMPREHENSIVE SCHEME 'Ma3Si! Bays Grades Shoald Follow I.aad. ctK aad Bhoald Be Provided for lie fore Additions Are Opeaed. President George T. Morton of the Real Estate exchange. In his Inaugural address last Wednesday, presented some Ideas on city planning that led to the appoint ment of a standing committee on city planning. Mr. Morton said, in part: "The thing for us to do Is to go into the unplatted parts ot the city and some what Into the platted districts that are only partially built up and make a sen sible, reasonable city plan to work to. In stead of just letting the city grow In a haphazard way. I-et us recognise these beautiful bills and valleys that give such a pleasing va riety to the landscape and not attempt to grade them all down level. First we will plan some msln thoroughfares run ning diagonally toward the renter of j the city as nearly as the physical oondU I lion will warrant. Then plan some streets I along the main valleys with rross streets I in the smaller tributary valleys. These i take tare of the surface drainage and I make- thoroughfares with easy grades a iid all with little expense, j "The genersl plsnning need only be , enough to provide for the through travel j and natuial diamine. Other streets may be left for the owner of the ground to arrange for when he plata his land. That platting ahould be subject to approve) of the city as It Is now, only with the added provision that his new streets that he gives to the public and turns over to the city to care for, should bs graded by the land owner before the city accepts them and before the city approves of his plat. . Improvement at I.IUle Cost. "Of the twenty-six square miles In Omaha'a limits, probably eight square miles are still unplatted and as much more Is so slightly developed that great improvement could be made with very little cost. The money already wasted In tha more developed districts Is appalling, but there is still opportunity of making the saving in fully two-thirds ot the territory within the city. And this plan ahould ba carried beyond the tlty limits Into the country. "Please do not misunderstand that I would develop all of this outlying prop, eity now- Property Is being platted faht enough. We are not suffering for want of plenty of lota being offered oa the market. My idea 1s simply to make the outline and Insist thst all new plata work to It. This Is a restricting or platting that would compel a proprietor to lake more time and give more study to his proposed plat, it would be a guarantee to the Innocent buyer that bis lot would not be confiscated with special grading taxes after holding It for jears. "One of the worst features of this ut ter lack of foresight Is the very bad ad vertisement we have suffered. Thousands of people have bought hits here at good round prices and have held oa hopefully for long years, only to find their prop erty confiscated by grading, or their loU unsalable because auch severe street grading will be necessary In front 'of their lots and then the lot itself must be graded before It will be usable. The people all have relatives and friends and these thousands have all talked more or less about their losses. Is It any wonder many Investors any off at the mention of Omaha? Can any amount of money spent In advertising the opportunities fo profitable real estate Investments here offxet these object lessons of losses? ' The plans of If. !. Kxterbiook to con struct several buildings between six teenth and fieventeenth streets on Casa ure being carried out and Wednesday he secured permits for the erection of three buildings, none to cost less than fle.OuO All three will be brick octettes. One will be built at I'M t'aas, another on the lots adjoining It and the third at 414-18 North Hixteenth. The latter will be a brick store and dwelling and will coat $17,000.
