constructed to a length of 9,382 feet, open nullahs part section 580 feet, parapet walling 179 feet, earth cutting 9,136 cubic yards, and a large section open earth intercepting cut (part inverted and walled) for a length of 2,200 feet.

10. Anti-Malarial work in Hong Kong was completed at Sookunpoo and continued at Mount Parker. Streams were trained to a total length of 12,921 feet with 3,522 feet of subsoil drains. At Kowloon Tong work was continued—nullahs, channels, pipe drains and culverts were constructed to a length of 3,672 feet, and "cutting and filling" amounting to 2,300 cubic yards was carried out.

WATER WORKS.

11. In Hong Kong the following lengths of new mains were laid to improve distribution:—576 feet of 12", 774 feet of 10″, 3,048 feet of 8", 1,012 feet of 6" and 3,302 feet of 4" and under. 1,022 feet of subsidiary mains were also laid in back lanes.

12. The Jardines Lookout Section of the Eastern Pumping Scheme was completed in February and has worked satisfactorily since. The Middle Gap and Mt. Cameron Sections of the Scheme were proceeded with and were almost completed by the end of the year. These sections comprise two turbine-driven ram pumps each capable of delivering 3,000 gall. per hour from Eastern Filter Beds through a 5" dia. rising main about 3,000 feet in length to a covered service reservoir at Middle Gap 778 A.O.D. and of 200,000 gall. capacity. Two electrically driven ram pumps are housed below Middle Gap Service Reservoir. Each pump is capable of delivering 1,800 gall. per hour through a 3" dia. rising main about 2,000 feet in length to a covered service reservoir 1,323 A.O.D. on Mt. Cameron. This reservoir has a capacity of 100,000 gall. and is connected by 1,252 feet of 3" dia. piping to the Peak distribution system.

13. A scheme to improve the Stanley District Water Supply was approved and a Paterson Pressure Filtration Plant to deal with 200,000 gall. per day was ordered from England. Tenders for the construction of two covered service reservoirs were called for at the end of the year, one of 200,000 gall. capacity and the other of 80,000 gall. capacity. The latter is intended principally for the New Prison. During the year the following lengths of main were laid at Stanley:—714 feet of 6", 1,248 feet of 5", 2,438 feet of 4" and 4,146 feet of 3".

14. In Kowloon and New Kowloon the following mains were laid:—850 feet of 12", 4,285 feet of 8", 575 feet of 6" and 3,606 feet of 4″, 9,126 feet of subsidiary mains were also laid in back lanes. At the Air Port 920 feet of 6" main were
