This gives a profit of nearly 182_l._ to each contractor, if
equally apportioned, or a little more than 41_l._ on each contract
for street-scavenging alone, and a profit no doubt affected by
circumstances which cannot very well be reduced to figures. The profit
may appear small, but it should be remembered that it is _independent_
of the profits on the dust.
