We are pleased to note that for the past year this depart- ment, figuring actual expenses, also interest at 4 per cent. on the total cost of the work, ($194, 121.32) show a profit of $5,802.43.
Hydrants and gates have been carefully inspected and are in good condition ; five new hydrants have been added to the main line, and there are now in use a total of 168. The reservoir has had a thorough cleaning.
Owing to the small rain fall this past year has been a severe one on our pond, it being drawn eighteen inches lower than ever before, fortunately our new pump was in position to do the work when we got below the capacity of the old pump. While in the past the Board has not feared a water famine, owing to the steady growth of the town we think that the time has now arrived when the town should secure an additional water supply. In the fall of 1904 this board received information of a young man in town who was affected with lead poison, which the doctors attributed to the town water. The Board immediately requested the State Board of Health to make a thorough exam- ination of the water for carbonic acid. In their report they told us that there was an excessive amount of carbonic acid in the water. The Board immediately inserted notices in both the Norwood Messenger and Norwood Advertiser and Review, in- forming the water takers of the facts in their possession, and warning them to be careful and draw the water out of the pipes every morning before using, also that the Water Board was ready to renew any service on application of the house holder.
At a special town meeting, held June 30, 1905, the whole matter was laid before the town, and a committee was appointed, consisting of F. O. Winslow, H. F. Walker, John P. Reardon, Patrick H. Mahoney and Dr. E. C. Norton to make an investi- gation and report at a future town meeting.
At a special town meeting, held Aug. 10, 1905, this com- mittee made a very thorough report which was accepted by the town. It was voted to replace the lead service pipe between the
5
water mains and street lines with tin-lined lead pipe, or cement- lined iron pipe as rapidly as the public interest and the require- ments of the water takers would warrant. The Water Commis- sioners have followed out the instruction of the town as fast as they could, renewing in the year 1905 127 services.
The Water Commissioners have investigated the qualifica- tions of cement-lined pipe and find it is very strongly recom- mended by the different towns that have used it, and it is the policy of the Board, in the future, to use it in their service work all together. We now have our cementing plant in operation and are prepared to supply the water takers at a low price per foot. We would like to state at this time that the State Board of Health has been taking samples of water from different lead services in town at regular intervals, and they tell us that of the analysis made in January, 1906, the lead in the water has shown a large decrease. It is practical now, as it was in 1900, that it is below the danger point.
At the special town meeting, held Aug. 10, 1905, the town voted that the sum of $1,000 be appropriated from the Water Commissioner's treasury to drive test wells, the Water Commissioners were instructed to have these wells driven, and also to engage a competent engineer to make estimates of the cost of connecting the wells with the present system, erecting a pumping plant and stand pipe, and report at a future town meeting.
The Water Commissioners proceeded immediately to carry out the instructions of the town, they consulted with the State Board of Health, and with their approval engaged the services of B. F. Smith & Bro., well drivers. Mr. B. F. Smith, accom- panied by the Water Board, went over the ground and selected a location on the southeasterly end of Mr. Maxwell's farm. Mr. Smith was instructed to consult with the State Board of Health in regard to the location, and with their approval, after securing an option on what land we thought necessary, we pro- ceeded to drive the wells. We first had driven one well and
6
sent samples to the State Board of Health for analysis who in- structed us to go ahead, that the water was all right. We then had driven twelve more wells, and out of the thirteen we se- cured nine good ones, the wells were connected and the neces- sary pumping machine was installed. The pump was run con- tinuously from the start to the finish, about twelve days, the samples of the water being sent to the State Board of Health every day, we pump in the twelve days about five million gal- lons of water, lowering the wells nine and one half feet, which shows conclusively that there is plenty of water in this locality. The State Board of Health, in their final report, tells us that the water is pure but advise us to go about one thousand feet farther east so as to guard against future contamination, advising us that we could use these nine wells in our permanent supply.
Following out the instructions of the voters expressed at the special town meeting held August 10, 1905, the Board of Water Commissioners secured the services of Freeman C. Coffin, civil engineer, to make estimates of the cost of connecting the pro- posed wells with the present system, erecting a pumping plant and stand pipe. We confidently expected to have this report in time to have it inserted in the Town Report, but we did not re- ceive it until it was too late. It is now in the hands of the printers and will be destributed as soon as possible.
We submit in this report several propositions for the con- sideration of the voters and would recommend that a sum of money be appropriated sufficient to purchase the necessary land for wells and pumping plant, and that a high pressure system be established as soon as possible.

The low water mark for the year was from December I to December 15, 138 inches below the crest at the outlet.
The highest level recorded for the year was on July I, at which time the water was seven inches below the crest. Samples of water have been sent regularly to the State Board of Health for examination.
