TOWN OF WAYLAND


REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON WATER SUPPLY FOR CENTER AND NORTH PART OF TOWN


As the report prepared for presentation at the last Town Meeting was not then taken up, we now submit an abstract thereof, giving briefly its essential features.


In the section adjacent to the State Road from the Weston line to the Bridle Point railroad crossing; the main street from Five Paths to Baldwin's Bridge; Concord Road as far as Mr. A. F. Parmenter's; Bow Road; Millbrook Road and Glen Road, there are about one hundred possible users of Town water. To build a reservoir and pipe this section would cost probably about forty thousand dollars ($40,000), on which interest and mainte- nance would cost about two thousand dollars ($2,000) a year, without providing for sinking fund. If all possible takers should use the water at an average rate of twenty dollars, the receipts would about equal the expense estimated above. As many now have satisfactory private systems, it is doubtful if there would be more than fifty subscribers for the first few years, in which case the average cost would have to be forty dollars to equal the expenses.


These figures, while rough, convince us that the construction and maintenance of a pumping station would raise the expense to a prohibitive figure. Your committee have therefore come to the conclusion that a gravity system is the only one that could be considered at present.


To connect with the Metropolitan aqueduct involves the pay- ment of a number of thousand dollars as an initial fee, and an annually assessed proportion of the interest, sinking fund, and maintenance of the system. We are satisfied that this would be as expensive as a system under our own control, and less satisfactory. To connect with the Cochituate system would probably cost about as much as the construction of a separate reservoir.


In our opinion the matter is narrowed down to two questions at this time.


First. Is there a sufficient supply of water of satisfactory


75


COMMITTEE ON WATER SUPPLY


quality to be had at some point on Reeves's Hill? This can only be determined by an expert, but we believe it probable enough to warrant employing one.


Second. In view of the doubt whether the income for some years would cover the current expense, without even providing for sinking fund, is it wise to spend forty thousand dollars, more or less, for water supply at this time?


If the Town desires to go further in the matter, we would recommend that the committee be empowered to employ expert advice to ascertain the quality and quantity of water available at the location referred to, and to get an expert estimate of the cost of construction of a reservoir and a pipe line. -

REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS


Agreeable to the provisions in Article 25 of Chapter 78, Revised Laws, accepted by the Town, the Commissioners beg to report that they have judiciously expended the money appropriated for the care of the three cemeteries, also the income from the funds held by the town for care of individual lots.


The general condition of the cemeteries is as satisfactory as can be obtained from the limited appropriation of but two hundred dollars.

REPORT OF THE LOCAL SUPERIN- TENDENT OF THE GYPSY AND BROWN-TAIL MOTH WORK


In submitting my report on the Gypsy and Brown-tail Moth for the year 1909, the same general infestation exists in the or- chards that are bad; the trees are full of cavities and should be cemented or tinned, as they would lay their eggs on the outside, where they could be seen and treated. There is an increase of gypsy nests, owing to the state stopping the work at a time the moths, part of them, were in the pupa state, and many of the caterpillars had not pupated. The stopping of the work was general through the state.


The brown-tails, there is an increase in some places, and in others not as bad as last year.

TOWN OF WAYLAND


WAYLAND, MASS., March 1, 1910.


I beg to submit herewith my report covering the work done, and now in process toward the extermination of the Gypsy and Brown- tail Moth, since my appointment as Local Superintendent in this district, dating from December 22, 1909.


The extent of the tremendous existence of these pests, I think, is fully understood and realized, and in order to do consistent and effective work, I would suggest strongly, that the owners of woodlands and orchards in the town should co-operate frequently with those having the work under direction, that all concerned may be kept in close touch with affairs pertaining to the work.


It may interest all to know that the existence of the Brown- tail Moth has greatly increased within the past year, and it will require earnest effort and endeavor for a time to keep this specie in submission.


The work during the months of January and February of the present year has been seriously impeded, owing to the extremely cold weather and heavy snows, making effective work impossible and the work of climbers extremely dangerous.


I do not hestitate to say that from now on the work can be better regulated and followed, inasmuch as the weather conditions are certain to improve, and with the co-operation of all concerned I firmly believe satisfactory results will be forthcoming.


The following statement shows the expense incident to the maintenance of this department from December 22,'1909, to Feb- ruary 28, inclusive :

TAXES OF 1909


In this, my first report, I desire to call the attention of the voters of the town to the fact, that the tax levy for the year 1909 was the heaviest in the history of the town, also to the fact that the collections up to the present time have been the largest, and I will also say that the balance of the levy outstanding will be available when required.


I desire at this time to express publicly my appreciation of the ever ready, willing, and valuable assistance rendered me by Mr. Yeager, Treasurer, also to the Library Trustees in permitting the use of the reading room in Cochituate, for the collection of taxes, the conditions of the room being very satisfactory and well adapted for the work. To Mrs. Grace C. Loker, Librarian, I desire to extend my many thanks, for her willingness to do all possible in the way of furnishing every convenience for the carry- ing on of the work of collecting.
