To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Chestnut planking also makes a good foundation on which to lay the pipe. Whenever the ground is made, or filled in, or where there is possibility of the settling of the pipe, or danger from the roots of trees, from frost, etc. , it is preferable to construct the house sewer of extra heavy cast-iron pipe. The earth about the pipe should always be well rammed. Special care should be taken in the making of joints on this part of the work. In general this work is done by unskilled work- men, and th...e attention is not given to it that its importance should demand. If the joints are unglazed they should first be wet, and the space between hub and spigot completely filled with Portland cement. This cement should be made of one part Portland cement and three parts of clean sand. In the use of pipe having glazed hub and spigot ends the hub should first be calked half full with oakum, and the remaining space filled with Portland cement. This method should also be followed in making the joint between the cast-iron house drain and the earthenware house sewer.
