Overview

Excerpt from Bulletin of the Natural History Society of New Brunswick, 1886, Vol. 5 At the present time the size of drains is a disputed point. It might be supposed that such a material question should long since have been settled, and yet every Sanitary Engineer follows his own ideas, and not one established by a truly inductive method. It may be said that the size of drains in any place must depend upon the number of inhabitants and the grades of the locality. This admits the difficulty, and shows that in complicated circumstances a large amount of accurate observation must be made before any dogmatic rules can be approximated. The dis posal of sewage is still a vexed question, and an enormous waste of useful material occurs for want of knowledge or from neglect of method, or from both causes.
