QUALITY
MBSSAGE MAY BE WRITTEN ON THIS SIDE.
The Missouri River water contains practically no
vegetable or other decomposible matter, but carries a
large amount of clay sediment which is settled as soon as
the water is placed into the basins and becomes clearified
by degrees so that when it finally is taken from the last
a basin into the pumping house again it is quite clear and
potable. From the lower end of the basin the water is
again elevated by the pumps and forced into a high
9,000,000 gallon reservoir 307 feet above the river, situated
about six miles from the pump house and from this reser-
voir it runs into the city, maintaining a uniform pressure,
varying with the elevation of each respective locality.
