The Goux system possesses all the advantages of the dry- 
eartli system, without its disadvantages; it is economical, 
deodorizing, and self-acting. The whole refuse of every 
house—as excreta, liquid or solid, ashes, and sweepings—are 
disposed of and turned to account, and it is applicable in 
individual cases, dwellings, and in large communities.— Sci¬ 
entific American, Jan. 1,1S72. 
“ Is. in an eminent degree, worthy of public attention, 
and must, when its simplicity and practical utility come to 
be fully understood, attain a wide popularity.”— Cultivator 
and Country Gentleman, March 28,18.2. 
“ The Goux system of closets is so simple and effective in 
its operation, so scientifically correct, and of such practical 
utility, it only needs to be understood to he appreciated.”— 
Moore's Rural New Yorker, March 1G, 1872. 
The absolute necessity for disposing of our waste matter 
in a manner which is not prejudicial to health, makes it im¬ 
perative to use a dry-earth closet in some shape, and this 
one has many advantages to recommend it ."—American 
Agriculturist, April, 1872.
