REPORT OF BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS
The Water Commissioners herewith present their annual report :-
The first meeting of the Board was held March 10. 1917. The full board, consisting of Dr. J. S. Hart, W. H. Sherman and S. Smith, was present, and organized with Dr Hart as chairman and S. Smith as secretary. For the remainder of the year the Board, with the exception of its chairman, who is away with the army, has met regularly every month. Of the two extensions voted at the last town meeting, the Board has laid a two-inch pipe from the main opposite Miss C. B. Chapin's to Mr. Donaldson's, instead of laying from I. N. McRae's to the main, as voted. The same purpose was gained, but the expense was less. Concerning the North Lincoln extension, no formal de- mand has ever been made before the Board, and the Board has attempted nothing toward starting it. However, when the state road was torn up, it was thought advisable to lay a pipe under it on the line where this extension may some day go, thereby saving some expense later. In consequence, sixty feet of four-inch pipe was laid and a diagram of its position (corner State. Road and Virginia Road) is in the water works records.
Another extension of about 300 feet of two-inch pipe was made for Mr. Donald Gordon. The matter of this extension came up suddenly, and the Board undertook it without an appropriation, and has paid for it from earn- ings.
Few leaks have appeared the past year, but one serious leak occurred on the Station Road, near the culvert at Mrs. Hilliard's, where the pipe is 12 feet below the road surface. Twice before a part of this old cement pipe had to be dug out at abnormal expense, and it undoubtedly is only a
111
question of a few years before all the cement pipe must be replaced; therefore the Board, not forgetting the present high cost of materials and labor, thought it advisable to renew at a normal depth a section of this pipe from a gate near the center corner to the Brick house service, rather than search for a leak 12 feet underground, which at no point showed on the surface, and could not with any cer- tainty have been located within many feet.
The electric pump has done very good service the past year, pumping more water at a lower cost of power than the steam pump did, besides the saving in oil, labor, smoke dust, and noise. The steam pump is practically in the same condition as a year ago, but the boilers are deterior- ating and probably could not be used much, if at all, with- out considerable expense. If the steam pump were needed in an emergency, it could no doubt be started within a day, but how long the boilers might last would be a matter of luck. However, the Board has not thought best to spend any money on them, thinking that in the not very distant future the Town might determine to swap the steam pump and boilers for another electric pump. If this comes about, there will be a valuable space available in the present boiler room which the Town could well put to some use.
The profit and loss sheet shows the financial condition of the water works. On account of discontinued connec- tions last year, $63 was abated from the taxes.
