Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Collection and Disposal of Municipal Waste The subject of waste collection and disposal in American and Canadian municipalities has from the first been a perplexing and difficult problem of municipal administration. It has not been given the attention bestowed upon other branches of municipal service, but most cities have followed the primitive methods in use from the settlement of the country and along lines that are now proven too unsatisfactory and too insanitary to be continued. There is an increasing demand that more economical and sani tary results be obtained in this class of work, and to secure these it seems to be necessary that improved methods be employed, larger sums of money spent, and that the plants be designed and operated under more scientific and expert supervision.
