It is just as important to have the proper crown on a street as it is to have a pitch to a roof of a house. In this connection I might add that it is a waste of money to try and keep in first class repair Hancock street (west side) School street (from Hancock street to Franklin street) Franklin street (from School street to Water street) with macadam until such time as they have a permanent pavement.


I would recommend simply the constant patching of bad spots with stone so as to keep a passable road.


1.3 miles of gravel roads had minor repairs made upon them.


9 Cross walks were built out of maintenance appropria- tion as the usual appropriation for this was not forth-com- ing.


1,083 linear feet of drain were laid.


15 Catch basins and manholes were built.


1,477 linear feet of curbing was set.


480 square yards paving relaid.


Sidewalks in various parts of the city have received at- tention but this work has not been of as permanent a nature as I wish it had been.


334


RECOMMENDATIONS


Buy portable crusher.


Build 1,000 feet of permanent tar or granolithic side- walks each year in each Ward.


Build 1,500 feet of permanent cinder and stone walks in each Ward each year.


Pave portion of Hancock street each year.


Pave one side of School street from Hancock street to Franklin street in 1909.


Build a section of bitulithic macadam.


Fix Granite street and provide drainage under Granite street bridge.


Cut hump on Newport avenue and use stone for build- ing the street.


Build Farrington street after track has been changed to centre of street.


Build portion of Squantum Causeway.


Fix Quincy avenue if the Massachusetts Highway Com- mission will not.


Provide surface drainage.


HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION


The accompanying table gives the detail of this work. A few of these streets are not quite finished but this can easily be done in the early spring.


As most of the estimates called for gravel streets and no provision was made for drains, catch basins, curbing or borders, it was necessary in a few instances to leave out some of the necessary drains although those put in are am- ply large enough to allow for future extension.


The great handicap in this work is the lack of com- petent foreman, men who understand the work and can carry it on profitably.


Ten to twenty-five per cent. is wasted on some work for this reason.


Two short visits a day to a job is all that can be given so that the balance of the time a competent foreman should


335


carry out instructions if the work is to be done profitably and in a workmanlike manner.


The maintenance of the city stables, horses, teams, har- nesses and pay of day and night men amounted to $6,475.09, the value of the services received therefrom amounted to $7,510, added to this is the fact that a city team does more work than a hired team, adds at least some respectability to the department, are at hand any minute, day or night, fur- nish employment for two night men and also provides a store house which we would have to have under any system.

EDGESTONES


Under the budget appropriation the following edgestone was set and assessment made:


George W. Morton Spear Street


Parish of Saint Chrysostom Hancock Street


John H. Gillis Pleasant Street


Wilford C. Hunt Bigelow Street and Miller Stile Road.


The above work consisted in furnishing and setting 529.4 feet straight, 33.4 feet curved edgestone and 3 block corners.


In the street construction a small amount of edgestone was set on the following streets: Hunt street, Glover avenue, Wayland street, Newport avenue, Cushing street, Liberty street, Eliot street. Bradford street and Crescent street.


The aggregate amount being 827.6 feet straight, 792.1 feet curved edgestone and 5 block corners.


GYPSY AND BROWN TAIL MOTHS


This work is carried on by the City under the super- vision of the Gypsy Moth Commission.


Notices are sent to all property owners requesting them to do the work before a certain date and if the work is not done the City does it and charges the same to the owners.


Highway trees should be kept very clean as the cater- pillars are carried very easily by passing vehicles to other dis- tricts. These trees have received careful attention and con- siderable pruning of limbs and dead branches has been done.


Most of our trees need lots of pruning to open them up and prolong their lives as they have small chance for nourish- ment when growing along the street. Linemen working on the wires have mutilated lots of trees about the City and to try and remedy some of this damage the three companies operating here have each sent a gang of men, under our supervision, about the city.


338


The elm leaf beetle did lots of damage last summer and if this continues the trees will die.


Power spraying is the best and cheapest method to fight this pest and should be done in the early spring in connection with the Gypsy Moth work.


SURFACE DRAINAGE


Quincy is well provided with brooks to carry off surface water and the problem is to carry the water to the brooks in the best and cheapest manner. There are few large areas but what have a natural outlet and this was especially true before streets were built and houses and lawns made. These alter or spoil the natural drainage in almost every case.


In many cases natural waterways are filled in and the immediate complaint is made that water from city streets is flooding the land. This is seldom true but on the other hand grading a street usually brings more water and brings it more quickly to the low points and for this reason the city must co-operate with the owners in disposing of it.


It is a problem which comes to every thiekly settled community and should be met in a comprehensive manner as all temporary makeshifts will have to be dug up and done over again.


There are however some areas which should not be built upon until drained. The holding and maintaining of natural drainage rights is valuable to the City and for that reason they should all be located and plotted.


A study is being made for surface drainage but it is far from finished at the present time.


Work of this nature is rather expensive but is good for half a century if properly done and for these reasons should be properly designed.


No large main drains have been laid this year but those laid are large enough to provide for future extension.


339


The work was done under four appropriations, viz:


1st. Surface drainage.


2nd. Bridges, culverts and drains.


3rd. Highway maintenance. 4th. Special street construction and is given in detail below :
