Fig. 60.—Plan for a septic tank.* This is a cement tank 8 feet long, 4 feet wide and 2% feet deep, with a partition reaching nearly to the top and dividing it into two sections. The top has two manholes G opening into the sections. The sewage enters Sec- tion 1 through pipe E, into part A, which is separated from part B by a plank partition having 1-inch spaces between the planks, to keep solid mat- ter in part A. Solid matter collects on the top by formation of gas. The liquids flow from the bottom through pipe F into Section 2. When this fills the trap valve is sprung and lets the liquid run out into th© underground system of tiles. The tiles should not be more than a foot below the surface of the ground, and should be level. Their volume should be a little more than the volume of the section of the tank emptied into the tile. "While the tank is filling again, the liquid soaks intO' the soil and bacteria near the sur- face decompose the organic matter. Prof. John Michels of N. C. College of Agriculture has experimented with septic tanks and finds the tanks, without the tiles, to be sufficient to decompose creamery slops. ?Hoard's Dairyman, January 1, Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Decker, John
