DISPOSAL OF WASTES LIABLE TO CONTAMINATE 179 Dilution is a great safeguard and so long as it is a million toone, will as a rule — to which there will always be exceptions— answer. Dilution as well as soil filtration — general seepage and per-colation of small wastes, farmyards, factories, gas washers —are helpful. Much inconvenience and ill health caused by impurities inthe drinking water originate primarily from the alimentarytract, and are due to gastric and intestinal disturbances. Theingestion of contaminating materials may be a cause of dys-pepsia or diarrhea, and probably also renders the system recep-tive to the invasion of the bacill
