Report of Water Commissioners
To the Citizens of Hatfield:
At this time we wish to take the opportunity to thank the people of Hatfield for their cooperation and interest in our operations during 1954.
Earlier in the year the Water Board requested the townspeople refrain from the use of hydrants for the obtaining of water for farming purposes. This was a very important request. We need our hydrants for fire protection. Many of our hydrants are in poor condition giving us reason to include in our 1955 budget funds to repair these faulty hydrants.
Among projects completed during the past year was the raising and the re-inforcement of our reservoir dam. This project we believe to be a definite asset to the town. The height of the dam has been increased 13 inches, thereby greatly increasing our town's water sup- ply. Also the re-enforcement of the dam with its new- ly constructed apron has checked previous waste of wa- ter by leakage. -
TROT 477
The water service line on West Street was extended 600 feet from Howard Johnson's Restaurant in a south- erly direction to complete this project. The water main across West Brook in North Hatfield was renewed.
Before the widening and black-topping of a portion of Chestnut Street was begun, our department found that there were nine house services to be renewed. These were taken care of at that time.
42
Upon the advise of the State Engineer, the laying of 500 feet of 8-inch water main on Elm Street from Dwight Street to the residence of Joseph Pelc was post- poned due to the fact that the sewer to be laid in that vicinity is to be laid close by the water line. It was the engineer's advise that if our water line was laid first there would be great possibility of damage resulting to the water line since the installation of the sewer line is to be considerable deeper than the water line. The pipe for this project was purchased and has been stored until such time as it may be laid without fear of damage. The renewing of house services in this vicinity has been started with the remainder of the services to be renewed as the project progresses.
During the past years there has been a definite in- crease in the amount of new homes being built in our community. Therefore the installation of new water services has also been increased. On the 19th of July the Town Treasurer was notified of our decision to in- crease entrance fees for new water services to $75. This increase was made necessary due to increased costs of material and labor.
Several years ago 14 acres of land were purchased by the Town to add to our watershed area. Efforts have been made to obtain red pine seedlings from the State Forestry for transplanting on this land. Supply of these seedlings in the past has been limited. As soon as these seedlings are available the Board will purchase them and commence work on this section of our water- shed.

Library Report
-
To the Trustees of the Public Library:
Books can be a great joy in themselves, but they are also wonderful items to share. Family life offers oppor- tunities for many shared pleasures, and not the least of these can be books. Most parents start out by reading to their children, but I am afraid not all parents enjoy the experience. Your own enjoyment or lack of it is readily apparent to the child listener, and unconsciously his whole attitude toward books may be shaped at this time. Books and reading fill a need in a child's life that nothing else can fill.
Four hundred and fifty-nine new books and forty- nine periodicals have been catalogued and put into circu- lation. Of these books one hundred and seventy-eight were for children and two hundred and eighty-one for adults. The circulation of books and periodicals for the year was as follows :
Juvenile Fiction
7,869
Juvenile Non-Fiction
4 058
Adult Fiction
7,289
Adult Non-Fiction
3,535
Total
22,751
Film statistics for Hatfield for films borrowed from the State Regional Library Center at 4 Fish Avenue, Greenfield, Mass., was: Four organizations borrowed
44
twenty films shown to an attendance of 763. These films may be borrowed free of charge by any organized group in the area by calling the Center at 8463 or by coming in to reserve them in person.
We are very grateful to the teachers who borrow books from the library for their classrooms. We extend this privilege to all teachers.
If anyone is seeking reference books, biographies or any non-fiction books not found on our shelves, I will gladly borrow them on request.
The library is open Monday and Friday from 7:00 P. M. to 9:00 P. M., Wednesday 11:30 A. M. to 5:00 P. M.
My sincere appreciation is extended to the trustees, teachers and my assistants for their co-operation.

Report of Tree Warden
To the Citizens of Hatfield:
During the past year six Elms were taken down and burned-Dutch Elm disease.
Also six Japanese Elms had to be taken down, due to hurricane and wind damage.
Three Maples classed as unsafe were taken down; one on Valley Street, one on Elm Street, and one on Mountain Road.
There were fifty-seven young Maples planted and fertilized last spring in all sections of town, which seem to be doing very well.
All shade trees were sprayed twice with D.D.T.
Our woodlands were completely sprayed by plane and show great improvement.
Due to hurricane and strong winds, considerable time was spent cleaning up limbs and debris, resulting in quite a bit of trimming throughout the town.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANCIS GODIN.
