Excerpt from Cement Pipe and Tile: Advantages of Cement for Pipe and Tile, Methods of Manufacture, Tests, Cost, Etc
The period of development in the application of cement to human needs has also seen the extension of sewer systems to serve by far the larger part of our urban population. Cement has already worked into this field to a considerable extent, and the number of machines for the manufacture of cement sewer pipe which are just now coming onto the market would seem to indicate that the development along this line is to follow largely the growth of the drain tile industry. From present indica tions the writer feels warranted in predicting that this will be the next most phenomenal development with which concrete is connected.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
