Means to enforce this law are provided, and sanitary inspec tors will be placed on duty through out the State on October first, act ing under the direction and by the authority of the State Board of Health.

Even those not affected by the law should comply with it for their own good. There is nothing new regarding the method of disposing !of human waste matter.
