The per cent. of fiction taken from this Library is far lower than in most other places, most of which will average S2 to 85 per cent. and some as high as SS per cent.
There has been added during the year a total of 1IO volumes. Of these 91 were purchased by the Trustees, and 19 received from the Commonwealth and United States gov- , ernment.
Through the kindness of Congressman Hon. W. H. Moody, we receive daily the Congressional Record, when Congress is in session ; also many valuable government books are sent us through his influence. Our thanks are again due to the Manager of the Budget for another year's file of that paper. These are annually bound and placed on the shelves of our Reference Room, and make an excellent record of town events and history.
We think the Reference Room is yearly more used and appreciated, containing as it does a large number of useful and costly volumes, from which information may be obtained on 'almost any subject.
We are confident that our Library stands second to none in any town of the size and in order that we may keep it up

REPORT OF TREE WARDEN.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Voters of Merrimac :
An act to codify and amend the law relative to the pres- ervation of trees :
ACTS OF 1899, CHAPTER 330.
Section 1. Every town shall at its annual meeting for the election of town officers ele t a Tree Warden who shall serve for one year and until his successor is elected and qual- ified. He may appoint such number of Deputy Tree War- dens as he deems expedient and may at any time remove them from office. He and his deputies shall receive such compensation for their services as the town may determine. He shall have the care and control of all public shade trees in the town (except those under the jurisdiction of Park or State Road Commissions). He shall expend all funds ap- propriated for setting out and maintenance of such trees.
Through the kindness of Mr. Heath, the manager of the Budget, the above and other sections of this act were pub- lished in an issue last summer for the benefit of the public, and there is therefore no need of a reprint here. A copy of this act is posted in the Merrimac postoffice. This act was approved May 4, 1899.
At the annual town meeting in March, 1900, the town elected its first Tree Warden but made no appropriation for carrying on the work. As there were liable to be heavy
55
TREE WARDEN'S REPORT.
wind and ice storms during the year, Mr. G. G. Davis was appointed Deputy Tree Warden, with instructions to attend to all damaged trees caused by wind or ice and also to answer all calls from Telegraph and Telephone companies as to cutting and trimming trees during the absence of the Warden or in consultation with him.
All the calls on the Warden or his Deputy have been promptly answered. Also private individuals, and their wants adjusted. Permits were given to the Telegraph Co. to remove a few trees and also to trim some trees where it would not injure their looks; all of which was done by the company without expense to the town ..
Several dead and dangerous trees were removed and quite a number trimmed where they were so low that they interfered with the tops of carriages. There are several large dead limbs on trees on School street that are or will be dan- gerous to pedestrians in a heavy wind.
Let it be remembered that all the trees in the public highway are shade trees by law, and are town property, and they should be trimmed and taken care of, and bushes cut and burned so that these shade tress shall not be burned and spoiled by people who burn bushes by the roadside. This work cannot be done too soon to save what trees are left, especially in outlying districts.
A large number of shade trees in the thickly settled por- tion of the town need trimming at once. Their low limbs run awry out straight into the street, and hang down in the way of carriages, umbrellas and hats. Their limbs are so thick that they can't grow up, so they grow down. They should have been trimmed long ago.
A year has nearly closed since this act was complied with, and as it is incumbent on the town to elect a tree war-
56
TREE WARDEN'S REPORT.
den at the coming town meeting, let us hope the town will see the wisdom of making an appropriation for the com- mencement of this important work and lose no more valuable time in getting started in beautifying our streets and roads. Let us be ahead in this 20th century in fine clean shady streets and roads. No large sum is needed. You cannot hire men without funds. An appeal was made to the selectmen last fall but they reported no funds available.
Respectfully submitted,
GEO. G. LARKIN, Tree Warden.
