Making cellars dry
Rare Books
"Many know the annoyance and ill effects of wet basements and cellars, but comparatively few are familiar with good remedial methods. This bulletin gives needed information ...

Frequently wet cellars can be made dry by gravity drainage of the site -- the simplest and surest method of avoiding ground-water troubles.
