FIRST CONSIDERATION
The first consideration in the matter of food is nutrition, the next
facility of digestion and assimilation. The grains like wheat should
be preferred, which are well supplied with the constituents of brain
and nerve, cooked in a palatable manner.

Alderman Harrold's report makes a

it is very probable that the committee
will ask for further time in which to
make its report.
Following is the report at Engineer
Hawley:
Hon. W D Harris, Chairman Special
Committee, Fort Worth-Dear Sir: 1
trust that it will not appear unseemly
for me to undertake to enughten the
committee on mutters treated in the
report of Alderman Harrold.
A quite intimate nequnintance with
all our mattera, exendtng over a pe-
riod of nearly fifteen yeara, baa put me
in touch with nearly all dts of
both design and construotion of the
worke. and I feel that I would be
derelict in my duty as a eitizen and
officer should I fail to analyse the
waterworks situation, aa set forth In
the aforesaid report, submitting with
said analysis such data as are neces-
sary to elucidate the propositions to-
ll goes without saying that all citi-
zens agree with Alderman Harrold's
statement that ws . shouia uss all
means at our command to decrease
coot of oporation to a point which will
enable the plant to furnish water at
the present rate, rather than increase
the rate. The proposition is almost a
platitude. .
That the water has to be handled
twice with our present equipment—
ones from the bowels of the earth to
the surface, and again from the sur-
face uptown to ths consumer—is also
very evident. That Mr. ead failed to
give us the amount of water contract-
ed for. I have already certified to in
the course of official duty, and in this
connection I wish to state that It was
with the Ereatest pain that I was
obliged, after the final teste, to certify
to the lack of compliance with terms
of his contract; for I respect and ad-
mire him as. In my judgment, the fore-
most hydraulic engineer at this coun-
try, and I personally regard him as A
true, good, honest man. Failure to se-
cure the full, exact amount of artesian
water guaranteed financially ruined
him, and yet he did us a service for
which our whole citisenship should
“rise up and call him blesged."
The groat Holly pumps in our main
waterworks pumping elation have al-
Ways been, are now and for many
years will be ridiculously too big for
the work required of them. They are

easily pump 19,000,000 gallons each, a
total of 2,006,000 gallons per day.

above 3,000,000 gallons per day for an

3,000,000 of work to do. It must be evi-

The by-pass trouble mentioned in
Aldefman Harrold’s report is correotty
stated. In so far aa it says that some
water is continually handled back from
the discharge to suction pot. and from
suetion pot to aiecharee, without going

is not as great and not aa costly an i

The mattar of pumping by air was a
feature we all desired to avoid, knowing
its lack of economy, but after a thor-
ough study of individual pumpe op-
erated by steam, and individual pump*
operated electrically from a central
plant or from the main waterworks sta-
tion, and several other expedients, it
was the unanimous opinion of those
mentioned, that, until the value of the
new field had been proven, air. although
more expensive td operate, would be
the proper means of pumping.
Produetivenens of stratn.
There is a great variation in the pro-
ductiveness of the artesian strata oven
in the same field. For instance, one
of the deep wells in the Holly-Mead
pump house yard flowed nearly 400,000
gallons per day, while one exactly like
IL same diameter and depth.only BOO
foot distant, failed to flow 40,000, or
about one-tenth of the other. The va-
riableness mentioned makes it ex-
tremely difficult to even approximately
calculate what supply can be had from
a field, and how deep the water will
drop in the wells when pumped. Best ns
our calculations on the depth to which
the Mead system brings the water level,
and the quantities obtained at those
depths, we figured that we would be
safe in assuming a supply of 200,000
gallons per day from each new well,
when drawing the water down 170 feet,
in actual practice. It appears that we
ret approximately 170,000 gallons from
each well, and that the depth of de-
pression is about 100 feet. This con-
dition changes, the expense of operat-
ing very materially, by reason of the
decrease in quantity, and Increase of
the depth from which it must be lifted,
and yet. all things considered, air is
probably our best method of securing
the water which wo absolutely need and
must have. Swift and Armour are ex-
actly in the name boat, as is the city
of North Fort Worth, and all have
adopted the same expedient, pumping
by air. It is expensive, but We must
have water, and more can be Rotten out
of the ground by air than by any other
process.
When the sash factory plant was
built. with its wells and conduits, it
was the judgment of the persons above
mentioned, that it would be unwise to
provide for more than 2,000,000 addi-
tional Ballons per diem, but the eon-
duit was built with a Rood measure
factor, which makes it. In my juda*
ment, of capacity to carry Rood 2,500.-
00S without ralsing the height of the
well tanks.*
The reason an even flow line was not
built in place of the part force and
part flow line, was purely one of ex-
penne of construction as to secure an
all flow line would have necessitated
an additional expense of over $20,000,
and we wore both pressed for funds
and uncertain as to exact results of the
project. It was therefore unanimously
agreed to construct as has been done.
An inspection of the profile of the con-
dult on file In the eit engineer's office,
will convince you that our decision was
probably correct.
