Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eleventh Annual Report of the Managers and Officers of the State Asylum for the Insane at Morristown, N. J: For the Year Ending October 31st, 1886 The difficulty, growing out of the extent of land required for the complete disinfection and purification of the sewage, which inter feres with the adoption of the system of sewage farming for large cities and towns does not need to be considered here, as the Mor ristown Asylum is situated where land suitable for the purpose can be acquired upon reasonable terms and within convenient distance, where neither the comfort of neighboring residents nor the value of adjacent property can be injuriously affected and as there is an am ple. Variety of soil and surface to select from, and as the distribution of the sewage owing to commanding site of the building will be perfectly effected, without mechanical aid, by gravitation, I should not hesitate to recommend the agricultural use of the sewage by the method of surface irrigation as the best means of purifying and disposing of it, having regard to all the points laid down at the beginning of this letter.
