HIGHWAY PLANT.


By vote of the town at the annual meeting, the purchase of highway plant was authorized and directed, and Rufus A. Thayer and the Selectmen so authorized and directed, with Stillman B. Woodman, Superintendent of Streets, for the purpose of determining what was most suitable for the work required to be done in the town and ascertaining by examin- ation and inquiry the relative standard of the machinery of different construction as shown by practical results, also the cost of the same, visited different localties where highway plants were in operation.


In their investigation the committee was assisted by Ed- ward J. T. Dexter, engineer at the pumping station, who after examination furnished valuable information as to the mechanical construction of the different engines and boilers in use.


As a result of their investigation the committee was unan- imous in their decision, and of the proposals received ac- cepted that of A. B. Black, agent for the Climax Road Ma-


11


chine Company, of Marathon, New York, for the delivery of a Climax stone crusher, with elevator, bins and a portable engine and boiler of fifteen-horse power.


In the selection of a steam road roller the committee de- cided to consider only the rollers known as the " Buffalo Pitts " and the "Harrisburgh," convinced that equal results would be obtained by the use of either.


Proposals were received from the representatives of both companies, and that of the representative of the Harrisburgh company for the delivery of a roller of the weight required, at a date fixed by committee, being the most satisfactory and the price quoted being lower, was accepted, and a contract made with the Harrisburgh Steam Road Roller Company for the delivery of a roller weighing twelve tons.


The crusher and roller were delivered according to the contracts, and were in operation before the first of Septem- ber and continued in operation until repairs upon the high- ways ceased, and have proved entirely satisfactory.


In addition to the crusher, and not included in the contract, a platform was constructed upon which to deliver stone at the mouth of the crusher, buildings were constructed in which to house the engine and boiler of the crusher and the roller during the winter and when not in operation.


The cost of the plant entire was $5,130.63, paid from the proceeds of the notes of the town issued and sold as author- ized, amounting to $5, 143.85, leaving an unexpended bal- ance of $13.22.


REPAIRS OF HIGHWAYS.


REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS. To the Selectmen :


The work of repairing the highways in the Spring was com- menced April 1.


12


But little scraping was necessary on account of the large amount of this work done the previous year, and the clean- ing of gutters, the surfacing of the streets and sidewalks with gravel, the laying of paving and the construction of a large catch-basin on Liberty Street, was the work done during that time.


The work upon the highways in the Fall was not com- menced until the stone crusher and roller were ready for operation, and but a small amount of gravel was used, the crushed stone being used instead.


A part of the work done during the Fall was the macad- amizing of Warren Street from Main Street for a distance of 422 feet, the average width of which was 25 feet at a cost of $470, the cost per lincar foot being $1.11+ or $5,883.45+ for a mile, which is not in excess of the cost given by the State Highway Commission of building macadam road.


A part of Main Street north of the brook at the West Corners, for a distance of 220 feet, was laid with macadam, the foundation being small field stone and finished with crushed stone, and will not require any repairs for years.


During the year, 311 square yards of paving were laid, a large catch-basin constructed, and 922 loads of gravel and 500 tons of crushed stone were used for surfacing the streets and sidewalks, and permanent work.


At the close of the season, arrangement was made with your approval for the delivery of stone at the crusher at 35 cents per ton, in anticipation of what will be required for the repairs of highways the coming year.


The cost of crushing the stone will not exceed 15 cents per ton, or a total of 50 cents per ton at the crusher.


The finer grade of this crushed stone can be used for sur- facing at a less expense than surfacing with gravel, and the other grades for repairs of more permanent character or for building macadam roads, should the citizens so decide.


13


The results from the use of the crusher and roller during the time they were in operation were all that was expected.


The expense of removing snow the past year has been nearly double that of any previous year on account of the heavy storms in the month of February and the storm in the latter part of November, the like of which has been hereto- fore unknown in this section of the country.


There is a demand that the streets and sidewalks be made passable as soon as possible after a heavy snow fall, that people may be able to reach their places of employment, as enforced idleness on account their being impassable means the loss of no inconsiderable amount in wages, and, in some instances, loss of employment and interruption to business.


The schools being in session during the winter months is another reason for the demand that the children may be able to attend school.


The endeavor has been to have the streets made passable and safe as soon as possible after snow storms, and the in- crease in the amount expended this year was unavoidable.
