MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT 215MAINTENANCE OF SANITARY AND STORM WATERSEWERSThe amount expended for maintenance of storm watersewers for the fiscal year was $4,196.00 and for maintenanceof sanitary sewers $3,039.00. This included, however,2,664 lineal feet of extension of circular sewtrs from 6-inchesto 12-inches in diameter, the cost of which was $2,132.00.While we were fortunate in not having any extensivesewer breaks during the year, naturally we had quite a largenumber of small breaks and a large number of stoppage insewers to clean out.DRY CULTUREWhile the term Dry Culture is used, what is really meantis the surface drainage of lands on the outskirts of the Citythrough open ditches and canals, and the work consists ofkeeping these ditches and canals clean and to proper grade.The amount expended for this work in 1917 was $4,086.00.SPRINKLING STREETSThe Auditor's statement shows an expenditure forsprinkling streets $3,365.00. This amount, however, shouldappear in items for cleaning streets and has been so consideredin deriving at cost of cleaning paved streets and lanes.SWEEPING CROSSINGSAt the end of the fiscal year there were 362 foot crossingsconstructed across unpaved streets to connect with sidewalks.The amount expended for cleaning crossings was $1,184.00,which entialed an expenditure of $3.27 per crossing per year.
