is not to be expected that assistance from tlie rates can be dispensed with,, 

 nntil, in the somewhat distant fatnre, the large annual sum now required 

 for interest and repayment of loans shall cease. It should, however, be 

 remembered in dealing with sewage farm accounts that after all the great 

 item on the credit side of the balance-sheet (although it is one that 

 cannot be represented by a money value) is the satisfactory disposal of 

 the sewage. 



In conclusion, it is only fair to observe, with reference to remarks 

 made in the first part of this paper as to the sanitary condition of the 

 Tame Valley, that since the date then referred to considerable progress 

 has been made in sewage purification, Walsall, West Bromwich, Wednes— 

 bury, Darlaston, and other towns and places having taken up the question 

 in a practical and energetic manner.
