REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS
To the Board of Selectmen :-
I herewith submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1918 :
The roads are in about the same condition as last year, no new roads having been built except a little gravel road in different parts of the town where they were very bad. Owing to the high cost of everything and the difficulty of obtaining the different kinds of material for road work, it has been hard to keep the roads in good repair at times when they should have been repaired. I have tried every way possible to keep the expenditures down during the year. We have done a lot of work for the Moth and Water Departments, and other work outside of the Highway Work for the town, also some private work, thus helping to keep the men and teams at work most of the time.
During the month of January of this year we teamed some sand and gravel, worked on water leaks, and did some out- side work.
In February we did what snow work there was to do. The men chopped some wood and the teams worked for the Water Department, thawing out pipes, etc.
The month of March was spent in teaming stone and gravel for road work, and for about two weeks we worked for the Water Department repairing leaks.
In April we scraped some of the roads and filled up the holes and ruts, etc.
During the first part of May the teams worked out, doing gardening and plowing, and during the latter part of the month worked for the Moth Department on the sprayers.
77
The first part of June we worked on the Moth Work, and the last part of the month we teamed gravel on the road near the Water Basin.
In July we patched the roads, putting on what tarvia we could get, and did some haying.
In August we scraped and fixed up the Turnpike, graveled road at Mr. Storey's corner, put in several culverts, and worked in the Cemetery, etc.
During the month of September we worked on the detour in the north part of the town, patched roads, and teamed sand and gravel.
In the month of October we put tarvia on the Depot and Farrar roads, and patched the roads where there were any holes.
In November we teamed gravel and sand, widened the road at the corner near the house of W. C. Peirce, and worked for the Water Department on leaks, etc.
In December we teamed sand and gravel, and worked at the crusher the last part of the month.
Material Used :
About 1,100 loads of sand and gravel, 16 carloads of crushed stone. 20,000 gallons tarvia, 900 gallons oil.
All of the stone was used for patching the roads and filling the ruts. The oil was used on the detours in the north part of the town, the State paying half of the cost.
Payments :
Hay, grain, straw, etc., approximately. $1,386.00

Less sum total which has been paid into the
Town Treasury, and balance still due for
labor, material, etc., approximately, 2,100.00
Amount expended for the year, $10,647.00
The Highway Department is in about the same con- dition as last year, except there has been one snow plow added.
I recommend the sum of $10,000 for the maintenance of the roads, and $5,000 for construction this year, as there is a large amount of road that needs rebuilding.
The guide boards are in about the same condition as last year. I have had some new signs made and put up at corners where it was dangerous. There are some other boards that need repainting soon.
