EXHIBIT METERS AT WATER BOOTH
Exhibits tending to show the enormous waste of water by consumers were added in the centennial exposition booth of the Richmond City Water Works company today. "Some day everything will be metered." said Superintendent Howard A. Dill, in explaining the meter exhibits. A meter of the type which the water works company proposed to place on rll fire lines is shown. The cost for Installation here would be about SJ0.000, which Mr. Dill says would be made up in increased revenues. It ic called a detector meter and literally detects tapping of unmetered flrelines. A small meter on a special joint registers ordinary small flows, while the big special meter in the main pipe measures heavy flows. Another exhibit 6hows that a dripping faucet leaks z gallons of water In 24 hours, an opening the size of a pin hole leaks 240 gallons in 24 hours and a hole twice as big 720 gallons. "When the entire service is metered
more care will be taken with plumbing." said Mr. Dill. "The average daily consumption in a cold week when the weather was below zero, was 1.000,000 gallons more than the average consumption in the hottest weather. Consumers let their hydrants run to keep them from freezing vhere they had been left unprotected.
