WATER DEPARTMENT
As stated by our Superintendent, the cost of material-par- ticularly cast-iron pipe-having advanced more than 100% over the cost of 1916, has prohibited, for the time being. further extensions in the water system. Cost of coal, oil and labor has also advanced, and we must provide for the overhaul of one steam pump at Haggett's Pond Station already contracted for. It will therefore be necessary that we have an amount for main- tenance considerably in excess of what was voted last year. A careful estimate places this amount at $13,500, which is $2500 in excess of the amount appropriated one year ago.
For construction, which covers only the service pipe, we rec- ommend the appropriation of $1500, the same as last year.
HIGH SERVICE PUMP STATION
Under Article 10 of the Town Warrant, considered at the meeting on March 5, 1917, $4000 was appropriated for the pur- pose of putting in two electrically driven centrifugal pumps; the idea being to use in addition the money derived from the sale of the oil engine and building on Bancroft Road. Owing to the very high cost of labor and material we found, after due con- sideration, that the total outlay was rapidly approaching $8000, and as . this amount greatly exceeded our appropriation, the majority of the Board did not feel that they could consistently go on with the work, and accordingly ordered the work on the pumps stopped, pending a reconsideration of the entire matter at the coming town meeting.
In the meantime we have obtained from the makers a sub- stitute proposition, which would materially reduce the cost, and
6
will probably take care of the emergency, for it is a well-known fact that the oil engine at the pump station on Bancroft Road is in good condition, and will probably last for several years.
The plan now is to use the pump house as it stands, together with the oil engine, and in addition to put in one 5-inch double suction pump, together with a 30-horsepower General Electric Induction Motor, the cost of which is given us as $1525.
The total expense, as near as we can determine, is $2491, made up as follows :-
One 5-inch double suction pump $1525 00
One 2-inch vertical Sump pump
366 00
Foundation and extras
600 00
$2491 00
An article will be incorporated in the Warrant, in accordance with the above. (See Note.)
In making this recommendation we do not wish to withdraw from our original position - that a complete change-over is most desirable - and in normal times we should be inclined to follow the wishes of our citizens, as expressed at the meet- ing one year ago; however, the majority do not feel that the expenditure of $8000 at this particular time is warranted, and . realizing that the new equipment can be used in the reconstruction of the entirely new plant at some future date we make the recommendation as stated above.
THE WATER BONDED DEBT
The bonded debt of the Water System is $159,000. There have been paid during the year 1917 $10,000 of the 4% bonds and $3000 of the 312% bonds.
Of the above amount of indebtedness $50,000 is redeemable by sinking funds which amount to $36,217.99, and an appro- priation of $750 is asked for the Sinking Funds.
SEWER DEPARTMENT
Very little work has been done, because of the rapidly increas- ing cost, requiring a curtailment as far as possible.
The extension on Summer Street, as ordered by the State
7
Board of Health, and voted upon at the last town meeting, was made, and is already in use.
An extension for a short distance of 525 feet was also made on Abbot Street at the urgent request of the property owners of that section.
We recommend an appropriation of $2500 for maintenance, which is the same amount as appropriated last year.
THE SEWER BONDED DEBT
The bonded debt of the Sewer System is $105,000. Of the above amount of indebtedness $40,000 is redeemable by sinking funds, which amount to $22,497.02, and an appropriation of $1000 is asked for the Sinking Fund.
HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT
It must be apparent to those who travel on our highways that practically all the streets radiating from the Centre are now in first-class condition, and every effort to attain permanency in road construction has had the consideration of the Board, par- ticularly during the past year.
Before proceeding with new work it has been the practice to arrange, in so far as possible, to have sewer and water connections put in; underground drains, catchbasins, etc., installed, and thus prevent the tearing up, which in previous years has proved very costly to the town.
The rapidly increasing costs in labor and material have pre- vented the Board from doing all of the work originally planned for, although reference to the Superintendent's report will show that $12199.06 was spent in reconstruction. This was done prin- cipally on Chestnut Street, Whittier Street and Central Street.
The average cost, including drains, catchbasins, etc., for the work above mentioned, is 1.127 per square yard, or, for road construction alone, .947 per square yard. While we realize that this is an advance over the previous year, a comparison with the figures reported by the State shows that we have obtained rock- bottom costs in so far as this is possible under present conditions.
8
To discontinue all new work because of existing conditions would result very seriously to the town.
First. It would be unfair to the citizens who have already contributed largely through taxation, and who have as yet failed to benefit from these improvements in their particular locality.
Second. During the past five years our Superintendent, together with his assistants, has received much experience, which materially reduces road construction costs from year to year, and to lose the services of these trained men, if only for a year, would be a step backward.
Third. To continue this work of reconstruction within certain bounds will bring us nearer to the time when every street within a mile, or possibly two miles, of the Centre, will be in first-class condition, and require very little expense for maintenance from year to year, except the cost of blanketing and possibly minor repairs, usually done in the spring of the year.
The problem of reaching the outlying districts is becoming more difficult each year. We are inclined to believe that this can only be accomplished by the use of auto trucks, for which a special appropriation will be asked when conditions warrant our doing so.
Surely a farmer who invests his money in property which necessitates his sending produce to markets at certain periods during the year, is entitled to a road over which he can travel without endangering the lives of his horses, and the loss of goods from which he gains a living.
Efforts have been made during the past year to induce some farmers in outlying districts to use their teams in making certain roads passable. The Board, however, has met with very little success, owing to the shortage of labor and the unwillingness of farmers to use their teams for purposes other than farming, particularly when required in planting and harvesting.
The Board hopes to do a certain amount of work in the villages during the coming year, and if the plan as now proposed, to use the stone-crusher, located at present in Indian Ridge section, can be put into effect, the cost of putting these roads in first-class condition should be materially reduced.
9
In addition, we should spend some money on Main Street, Abbot Street, Pearson Street, Andover Street (to Ballardvale), and possibly some others.
We recommend for maintanance and construction that the town appropriate the sum of $35,000, together with all moneys obtained from railway franchise and excise taxes, together with the tax for street sprinkling.
LOWELL STREET
It is a well-known fact that the work has proceeded very slowly due to the small amount allowed at the last town meeting for this work; the same being practically one-half what was origi- nally planned. In view of the work started on the Tewksbury end, it is very much desired that a larger appropriation be secured for this year, otherwise it will be several years before we can divert the travel which now follows the boulevard from Lawrence to Lowell, to the most direct route via Haggett's Pond.
SNOW REMOVAL
The cost to the town for the removal of snow has more than doubled during the past year, owing to the shortage of labor and the scarcity of horses available for this purpose.
SIDEWALKS
The deplorable condition of our sidewalks throughout the town has prompted the Board to expend more money during the past year than for several years previous. The improvements, however, are more or less permanent, and the costs should gradually decrease from year to year, after the work is once completed.
Some experiments have been made with granolithic walks, and when conditions return to normal these walks will undoubt- edly be more in demand, particularly in the center of the town. We recommend the expenditure of $2000 for sidewalks; $1000 to be spent under the Betterment Act.
10
PARKS AND PLAYSTEADS
Little or no new work has been done during the past year, the chief attention of the Board being directed to the maintenance of the property now under the control of the town. We recommend the expenditure of $1500 for Parks and Playsteads.
REMOVAL OF ASHES
In disposing of Article 8 at the meeting on March 5, 1917, the Board was ordered to investigate and make a report which is as follows :-
Twelve towns and cities were communicated with, and only four of the towns make a business of removing ashes from dwellings and business blocks.
The following is self-explanatory :-

¿2776 tickets collected during 1917.
** Does not include cost of town teams used.
*** Cost covers removal of rubbish. Ashes used for filling, and removed at convenience of Highway Department; no record of cost kept.
11
It should be noted that the sale of tickets by the town of Norwood, at the rate of $1.00 per dozen, did not cover the cost of removal for 1917.
The only favorable comment is in a report received from the town of North Andover. We quote as follows :-
"This is our second season for collection of ashes.
The public is greatly benefited. These collections fill a long-felt want by our townspeople."
The following towns do not collect ashes:
Belmont
Middleton
Clinton
Reading
Danvers
Wakefield
Ipswich
Winchester
In view of the difficulties in obtaining labor and teams, except at abnormally high rates, your Board is inclined to recommend that we defer action for a year or two on acceptance of any plan which will place the responsibility for removing ashes on the town. However, should the town take the opposite view, we believe that in the interest of all concerned the Board should be given full powers to make whatever rules are necessary, in order to make sure that the ashes are handled economically, and with as little discomfort to the travelling public as possible.
We also believe that the appropriation should be adequate to cover the cost and that the town be reimbursed by the sale of tickets to individuals who are benefited by the removal of the ashes.
FLOODING OF PLAYSTEAD DURING WINTER MONTHS
Under Article 9 the town voted, on March 5, 1917, to construct a gate to close the underground drain of the Playstead; the purpose being to provide a skating pond during the winter months, and appropriated the sum of $100 therefor.
We found on investigating the matter, the possibility of such very serious damage to the Playstead so apparent that we were reluctant to proceed in carrying out the wishes of the town without further instructions, and as an experiment a gate
12
was constructed at a point where the underground drain enters the Playstead, thus flooding the field above.
Unfortunately, the cold weather came upon us earlier than was anticipated, and in consequence our skating-pond exists only in our imagination. The total cost of the gate being less than $30, the appropriation remains untouched; the money being taken from the Park funds for this purpose.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
To the Board of Public Works.
GENTLEMEN :- I herewith submit my report for the year ending December 31, 1917, making the twenty-ninth annual report of the Water System, the twenty-first report of the Sewer System, and the fifth report of the Highways and Parks, under your supervision.
WATER DEPARTMENT
The year 1917 passes with no new mains laid at all; the prices having advanced double, and they are still higher now than a · year ago, the cost of iron pipe being at present $56.00 a ton, against a price of $23.50 in 1916; lead being 12 cents a pound, against 4 7-8 cents in 1916. Therefore the present plant on December 31, 1917, is as follows :----
Total length of main pipe
51.19 miles
Number of hydrants
377
Number of public buildings 15
Number of fountains 8
Number of standpipes
10
Number of fountains at park
3
Number of private hydrants 34
SERVICE PIPES
Applications received were thirteen, and of these only eleven were laid. The number of feet laid by the town, 251.1; laid by
15
-
property owners, 392; relaid. 7 - making a total on December 31. 1917. of 117.295 feet.
610 cement lined 857 lead lined 36 all others
1503 total, or 117,295 feet
METERS
There were set during the year 1917 twenty-one new meters. making a total of 1311 now in use. in size from 5-8 inch to 3-inch inclusive.
PUMPING PLANTS
Haggett's Pond Station during 1917 was run 365 days; ninety days of which the oil engine was used, pumping 52,755,900 gallon in 1399 hours and 22 minutes, and using 7069 gallons of fuel oil, at 8 cents per gallon.
The steam plant was used 275 days, pumping 165,138,223 gallons, and consuming about 245 tons of coal ; the daily average for 1917 being 594.230 gallons per day. The average hours this year have been a little longer than in 1916, because the revolu- tions have been cut down, making it necessary to work a little longer than in the past, but this has been a saving on the machinery.
The following table will be according to Engineer's Sheet :-
Days
Hours
Callons pumped 217894123
Oil 7069 gals.
Coal
365
372740
245 tons
Average day 594230
The station on Bancroft Road has run during the past year on Monday, Wednesday and Friday of each week, as well as Satur- day forenoon, or about thirty hours each week. This station is now run on kerosene instead of fuel oil.
WATER METERS
Water meters have been installed during 1916 and 1917 on every service pipe put in, and on a great many more places they
16
should be set; but according to our rules they are let off by having only one faucet at the sink. Meters are a great benefit to a city or town, as the rise in our receipts shows the last year or two.

SEWER DEPARTMENT
Main sewers were laid on Abbot Street and Summer Street. The one on Abbot Street was laid from bond money, while the one on Summer Street was a special appropriation, Article 15, of $3000.00 at the last town meeting.
The Abbot Street sewer was a distance of 525 feet of 6-inch pipe. This work was started in June and finished in July, ata cost of $1305.49 - or $2.48 per foot. The cut at Phillips Street end was 12 feet deep, and at the other end only 4 feet. A great deal of water was found to handle. The Summer Street job was a distance of 1409 feet, and cost $2601.16, or about $1.84 a foot.
17
Sewer applications have been 67, and 67 already have been laid, making a total of 733 now in use. The 67 laid amounted to 4773 feet of Akron pipe and iron, at an average cost of 66 cents per foot. Total feet, December 31, 1917, 51,147.
The same appropriation will be necessary for Sewer Mainten- ance, to be divided as follows :-
