REPORT OF TOWN BURIAL AGENT and Veterans' Grave Inspector


As last year, no case of indigent veterans' burial has been brought to the Burial Agent's attention. All graves under town care have been inspected and found in good condition. Two graves of Revolutionary soldiers have been found that were not on the original list. That of Col. Israel Hatch was found to be unmarked and in bad condition but by the courtesy of Attleboro Chapter D. A. R .. these two graves were properly marked. Col. Hatch's case was referred to the North Attleboro His- torical Society and will be followed up.


In the case of the two 1812 veterans, it was found that the Society of 1812 marks only those graves of men who were in U. S. service. Our local vets. were members of the Mass. militia and although seeing active service, do not come under the care of the Society of 1812. A small appropriation of about five or six dollars would properly mark them. Descendants of both these men, Sergt. Chester Bugbee end Reuben Coombs, still live in town. This work has been of no expense to the town.

ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF TREE WARDEN


Owing to last year's economical town meeting, this department was unable to carry out its much needed tree work. Of course my job first is in respect to safety of the pedestrians, or one traveling along our roads. Therefor, all overhanging branches and dead wood which looked dangerous were taken out on a number of streets. This work, of which you know, is very important for if they constitute defects and if anyone is injured the town is liable.


Fifty trees on Spring Street and East Bacon Street were gone over with a special wound dressing or paint to prevent decay where large limbs were sawed off or other ways injured.


Brush cutting was carried out on the following streets : West Bacon, Walnut, High, Bow, Messenger, Taunton and George. Owing to the lack of tools for this work, a considerable part of my tree work money had to be spent for supplies.


In conclusion, I will say as many times before, our trees mean a great deal to this community and that we should give them some care in keeping them in safe con- dition.


Appropriation $100.00


Expended 100.00

ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF THE TOWN FOREST COMMITTEE


January 17, 1934.


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :-


During the month of April an unemployed crew from the Welfare Dept. planted 17,000 trees in our town forest, consisting of 5.000 red pine, 8,000 white pine, 3,000 red spruce and 1,000 white cedars.


June 1st, a lease was granted to Mr. Willard Leonard and Son of Attleboro, for land on the east side of Wash- ington Street.


In the summer the brush along the wood roads and in the forest trails was mowed.


Under the C. W. A. works, a crew of 11 men are now clearing off the 22 acres of burned-over land on the west side of Washington Street, preparing it for spring plant- ing for which we hope to have funds to carry on.

ANNUAL REPORT


REPORT OF MOTH DEPARTMENT


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :-


The Gypsy Moth conditions for 1933 are the most severe ever reported in this town. Practically all the woodlands are infested more or less. Many large areas were defoliated. besides much damage being done to private property, mostly apple orchards. The residential sections, however, were kept in pretty good condition. Inspection this last fall shows that a large amount of work will have to be done during the winter and spring to hold the moths in check.


The State Forestry Department is doing very satis- factory work under the C. W. A. This consists of scout- ing work being done in the woodlands and as soon as an infested area is found, work is started in creosoting the eggs over the entire infestation.


During the spraying season last year 1500 lbs. of poison was used and owing to so much unfavorable weather on account of rain, made it almost impossible to spray so that the poison would stay on the leaves. Con- sequently, later in the summer there was a heavy egg- laying on our roadside trees where these badly infested areas are.


Our appropriation is not sufficient to do moth work as it should be done; as it takes all available funds to care for the shade trees and travelled roads while back in the woodlands the gypsy moths are heavy where cre- osoting cannot be done on account of the expense.


The State Forestry Dept. has assisted by reimburse- ment last fall as far as possible. I believe in order to control the gypsy moth more effectively there must be

perfect co-operation between the state and town and the law pertaining to land owners to destroy the moth eggs are required by said notice given out every fall.


I hope that the town will support the work at this critical time and that we may depend on its co-operation.
