WAYLAND WATER SUPPLY
Owned Municipally
Authorized : Acts 1878, Chapter 80.
System installed: Two sources-two systems.
Supply pumped: Diesel engines
Population (1925) : 2.255
Supervision: Board of Water Commissioners
Examined: May, 1928
By: C. I. Sterling, Jr.
Introductory
The Town of Wayland was authorized by the Legis- lature under Chapter 80 of the Acts of 1878 to supply itself with water from some source within the town lim- its. An old mill dam on Snake Brook was raised several feet and the pond formed was used as a source of water supply in the Cochituate village district of the town of Wayland. As this source is a gravity supply and the source of supply at a comparitvely low elevation, the pres- sure in Cochituate Village is very low ranging from about 8 to 27. In 1913 an 8-inch emergency connection was made to the Natick supply in order to increase the pres- sure when necessary for fire protection.
The quality of the water from this Snake Brook Reservoir is not always of the best due to its large area of shallow flowage and bordering swamp lands causing disagreeable odors, tasts and color in the water. The Cochituate Village supply is only available to approxi- mately half of the town of Wayland because of the low elevation of Snake Brook Reservoir. In 1921 the town of Wayland was the recipient of the sum of $225,000 un- der the will of Mr. Jonathan M. Parmenter for the con- struction of a water supply system for Wayland Center. Thirty wells were driven south of Baldwin Pond and the entire system installed by the Hydraulic Development
84
Company of Boston. The two systems are now owned by the town of Wayland but are not connected, the nearest mains being approximately two miles apart.
Description of the Systems
Cochituate Village: The Snake Brook Reservoir, having a watershed area of 0.67 square miles, is divided into two small reservoirs by an earthen dike. The upper basin has an area of 4.6 acres and the lower 7.6 acres. The two basins are connected by a 6-inch pipe which is only opened in case of low water in the lower basin. The water is supplied to Cochituate Village by gravity through a 10-inch cast iron main running from the lower basin. The reservoir is divided into two basins because the lower basin has a better quality of water due to the better kind of soil on its bottom and the better prepara- tion it received for the storage of water so that the wa- ter from the upper basin is only used when necessary.
Wayland Center: The water supply is obtained from a set of thirty driven wells ranging from 35 to 65 feet in depth located near Baldwin Pond and pumped through a 10-inch main to a steel standpipe located on Reeves Hill. This standpipe has a capacity of 500,000 gallons and is located at such an elevation that it can supply water to both Wayland and Wayland Center and Coch- ituate Village at a suitable pressure for fire protestion.

Measures for the Protection of the Supply Cochituate Village Supply
The local Board of Health exercises no authority over the source of supply.
Inspectors are not maintained around the reservoir. The superintendent makes a general inspection of the watershed once a month.
No boating or fishing are permitted in the reservoir. No ice is cut on the reservoir.
Important Legislative Acts
1878 Chapter 80. Town may supply itself with water. May take water from any source within town limits.
1903 Chapter 316 Weston Water Company may extend pipes into Wayland. Wayland may purchase the Weston Water Company.
Conclusion
The water supply of Wayland Center is safe and ade- quate for the future needs of the Town of Wayland for many years if the population of the town increases at its present rate. The water supply of Cochituate Village is in all probability safe but the quality is not always of the best and the pressure altogether too low for even domestic purposes in some localities. It is recommended that Snake Brook Reservoir be eliminated as a source of water supply for Cochituate Village and in its place take water from the driven wells which supply Wayland Cen- ter at present. This would necessitate the laying of approximately two miles of mains either along Main Street or Connecticut Path.

REPORT OF FIRE DEPARTMENT
Wayland, Mass., Jan. 17, 1929
Alarms answered 72
There were many brush fires in the early part of the year due to dry conditions. This was offset in the later part by much rain.
There were six (6) building fires, all of which were in summer cottages.
A re-built motor was installed in the fire truck at Wayland.
Considerable work will have to be done the coming season on the fire alarm system, due to the changing of poles by the telephone and light companies and from in- terference by trees.
We are recommending to the Finance Committee, that the Fire Department Appropriation be increased to Twenty-five Hundred Dollars, ($2,500.00).
The present appropriation is Two Thousand Dol- lars, ($2,000.00).
This amount is much lower than the appropriations of other towns in our class. The added amount asked for, will be of great aid in bringing the Fire Department to a better degree of usefulness.

REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS
Six hundred dollars was received during the year, to establish four Perpetual care Funds to care for burial lots., as follows: $200 from the administrator of the Es- tate of George F. Marston for a Fund to be known as the "George F. Marston Fund;" $100 from Mrs. Charles B. Felch for a Fund to be known as the "Charles B. Felch Fund;" $200 from Mrs. Nellie J. Draper for a Fund to be known as the "Paul T. Draper Fund;" and $100 from Mrs. Dana Elkins for a Fund to be known as the "Ainsley Dunham Fund."
On December 31st, 1928 there is $14,250.00 invested to obtain income for the care of burial lots. It is hoped that other owners of lots will place them under perpetual care, as soon as possible.
The Commissioners were able to have a large de- pression in Lake View Cemetery partly filled in. As soon as possible it is hoped the Town of Wayland, Mass., will assist in filling in the balance of the depression, which will thereby add ten or twelve lots for burial pur- poses.
The Commissioners have decided it is unnecessary to have the long list of Perpetual Care Funds and their respective balances included in their report. The books of record are open at all times for inspection. For finan- cial report see Town Accountant's report for the year 1928.
The Commissioners wish to place on record their appreciation of the splendid work done by the men of The Charles H. Alward Post of the American Legion, in taking down a large number of dead trees in the North Cemetery. The work was done with care and efficiency.
The Commissioners would call attention to the ur- gent need of the extension of the water pipes into the North and Center Cemeteries. Owners of burial lots are
90
put to great inconvenience when they desire to keep dec- orations fresh and in good condition, particularly before Memorial Day.

HIGHWAY SURVEYOR'S REPORT
January 19, 1929
To the People of Wayland:
I submit my sixth annual report as Surveyor of Highways.
For a number of years the State has loaned our town a truck to be used in snow removal. This year the State truck was not available.
It seemed advisable to hire a truck for the above purpose. This was done at the rate of $300 per month for 4 months. Knowing that the same thing would have to be done the following winter, I decided to buy the truck, paying at the same rate as rental, and without interest. The truck cost $4,450 and will be all paid for on March 1, 1929.
I would recommend that the Town appropriate for the coming year.

REPORT OF EXTENSION SERVICE WORK
The town of Wayland appropriated $300.00 in sup- port of the Middlesex County Extension Service through the Trustees for County Aid to Agriculture for 1928. The following is a report of the work accomplished dur- ing the year.
In Agriculture fertilizer experiments were carried on at the farm of Joseph Decatur in the use of different fertilizers and these have been of special interest and value in connection with profitable potato production. Ronald Campbell was successful in winning in the 300- Bushel potato club contest, for this year. Considerable interest was shown in the plowing demonstration given, which showed the methods used in the European Corn Borer control work. Two pruning demonstrations were held in the interest of the orchard men. Thirty-three farm visits were made to assist farmers with their in- dividual problems.
In Homemaking a total of sixty-six women attended the homemakers' groups this past year. Groups were conducted in Tower Hill, and in the Mothers' Club in Cochituate. A series of five Home Improvement meet- ings were held in each of these communities. As a re- result, homemakers have reported that many improve- ments in kitchen have been made. The Nutrition Pro- gram consisted of a series of four meetings. The home- makers in these units have passed on what they have learned to 105 other who could not attend the meetings. This fall, these units are carrying on a Clothing program of four meetings to discuss Line and Design in Dress and short-cuts in Garment finishes.
In Boys' and Girls' 4-H Club Work eighty-eight boys ard girls were enrolled in garden, handicraft, poultry, clothing, and canning clubs. Miss Mary Kerr, Mrs. Rich- ard Ames, Mrs. Margaret Fiske, Miss Ethelyn Morrill and
100
Mrs. W. J. Scotland served as local leaders. Handicraft exhibits in Cochituate and Wayland were unusually good. Madeline Bullard, Ruth Schleicher, Edwin Adams and Henry Hardy were awarded a two-day trip to the Mass- achusetts Agricultural College for doing outstanding 4-H club work.
Eight educational motion picture shows were given to a total attendance of 1500.
In addition to the above work, the local people had an opportunity to attend several county-wide meetings on the various phases of agriculture and homemaking, as well as received circular letters giving timely information on subjects pertaining to the Farm and the Home.

REPORT OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES
The administration of the library for the past year presents no notable features, except the continued in- crease in circulation, which has been uninterrupted for the past ten years. In the year past the circulation reached a total of over thirty thousand volumes, which for a town of two thousand inhabitants is remarkable. It is certainly a gratifying commentary on the value of the library to the town, and its appreciation by our citi- zens.
Since the gift of our beautiful main library build- ing to the town by the late Warren Gould Roby in 1900, no major repairs have been needed, or have been made. However, after twenty-nine years of use, the interior painting and wall coloring have become dingy and soiled and need renewing. An article will be inserted in the warrant for the ensuing Town Meeting, asking for an appropriation for this purpose. As both the library building and the large lot of land on which it stands were both given the town, at the cost of their adequate main- tenance, it would seem, need not be unduly considered.
