You will find two articles in the warrant asking for appropria- tions, one for the acquiring of land, the other for the developing of the playstead. Last year quite an extensive study was made of the playstead with consideration of its future development. Expert advice was employed, and after carefully considering same, we have asked for sufficient money to grade, drain and lay into lawn this entire area including the land we have asked the Town to acquire though an article in the warrant, thereby put- ting in shape for use many parts of the playstead now unfit for any kind of play.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
To the Board of Public Works.
GENTLEMEN:
I herewith submit the thirty-seventh annual report of the Water Department, the twenty-ninth of the Sewer Department, and the thirteenth of the Highway and Park Departments, with a brief summary of the work performed in each department for the year ending December 31, 1925.
WATER DEPARTMENT
During the year 1925, there were added to our main pipe lines 820 feet of 6-inch C. I. pipe on Highland Road, 1006 feet of 6-inch on Morton Street, 785 feet of 6-inch on Abbot Street, 400 feet of 6-inch on Pine Street, 751 feet of 6-inch on Pasho Street, 1053 feet of 6-inch on Magnolia Avenue and 220 feet of 6-inch at Phillips Academy, making a total of 5053 feet or .95 miles. There are now 60.42 miles of water mains in town, varying in size from 4-14 inches. Before the new road was built on Haverhill Street, the 6-inch water pipe was replaced by a 10-inch, from the cement road to Sterling Street, a distance of 1324.5 feet, where it was connected to the existing 6-inch line by a reducer. This Haverhill Street job was done with money appropriated by the last bond issue used for that purpose. Fifteen hydrants were added this year, making a total of 493 now in use. All the hydrants were given a thorough inspection during the year.
We have pumped at Haggett's Pond station, using both the steam and electric plants, 343,769,471 gallons. The steam plant was in operation 3776 hours and 35 minutes, and the electric 993 hours and 10 minutes, making a total of 4769 hours and
8
45 minutes, or a daily average of 13 hours and 4 minutes, the pumps having been in operation every day. The greatest amount pumped in a single day was 1,527,271 gallons on Novem- ber 10th. The electric pump on Bancroft Road was in operation about 40 hours per week.
The grounds at the Haggett's Pond pumping station have been filled in to some extent and a part of the grounds has been covered with loam. Last fall another portion of the swamp was taken care of and this work will be continued this year until there is a good lawn on the west side of the station. The land from the pumping station to the Railroad tracks has been cleaned up and now presents a neater appearance. The dilapidated wooden fences around the reservoirs have been replaced by wire fences.
I would recommend for maintenance for 1926, $30,000.00 ($1,000.00 less than last year) to be divided as follows:
Salaries and labor
$16000.00
Coal
3000.00

SERVICE PIPE AND : CONSTRUCTION
The number of applications in 1925 was 45, making a total of 2218.
In use January 1, 1925, 2044; put in during 1925, 44; 2088 in use January 1, 1926.
Meters in use January 1, 1925, 1929; meters set during 1925, 34; 1963 in use January 1, 1926.
I would recommend for construction for the year 1926, the sum of $10,000.00 ($2,000.00 less than 1925), to be divided as follows:

SPECIAL WORK
I would recommend the following:
That a 6-inch C. I. water main be laid from Summer Street along Upland Road and connect at Chestnut Street, a distance of 1136 feet. The estimated cost of this job is $3,500.00, which includes the removal of a little ledge.
That a 6-inch water main be laid on Walnut Avenue from the corner of Carmel Street to Elm Street, a distance of 985 feet. This would make a circulating line, thereby improving the system. The estimated cost of this job is $2,500.00.
That a 10-inch water main part way and the remainder 8-inch be laid on Lowell Street from a point just beyond the pumping station where the main line runs to Osgood Street, to the Tewks- bury line. This work could be carried over two years and $10,000.00 spent this year. This is a main highway and a water line in this district has been requested many times.
The above recommended extensions were laid out in our recent survey by Weston & Sampson, Engineers, and received their recommendation. The total cost of these three extensions would approximate $16,000.00.

SEWER DEPARTMENT
I would recommend for sewer maintenance for 1926, $5,000.00.
COMMON SEWERS
Seven hundred seventy-four feet of sewer pipe were laid on Haverhill Street at a cost of $2654.23 and 677 feet on Pasho Street at a cost of $1180.70. Eleven leaks were discovered in the outfall sewer line and were repaired by the town. These leaks all showed poor workmanship and not poor material.
In most cases the pipes were not centered properly and not "put home." These leaks were repaired as soon as possible after discovery and the joints were run with lead. Not the least trouble was met in the repairing of these leaks. The balance of the outfall sewer is as follows:

HIGHWAYS AND PARKS
To the Board of Public Works.
GENTLEMEN: -
I submit for your approval the thirteenth annual report of the Highway Department for the year ending December 31, 1925.
The highway work started with the handling of snow and ice. The snowfall for 1925 was as follows: January, 24.75 inches; February, .50 inches; March, .50; April, 2.50; October, 1.50; November, .50; December, 4.00, making a total of 34.25 inches.
The cleaning of streets and the patching of roads followed. This work is increasing at such a rate that in the near future to do it efficiently a small truck and two or three men will be required at least six months of the year. Last spring we scarified several roads and likewise in the fall. Three rainy days followed the scarifying in the fall and this brought the frost out of the ground which made the roads very soft. This is the cause of their present bad condition. This coming spring they will all require con- siderable work. After these roads are scarified they should be given a coat of oil which will help to hold them in shape. Last year we did not do as much blanketing as formerly but kept the roads well patched and will give them a blanketing coat only when they show general wear.
Last winter several loads of cinders were placed on the follow- ing streets: Ballardvale Road, Dascomb Road, Hidden Road, Clark Road and Osgood Street. A cinder road was built on Brown Street from Lowell Street to Bellevue Road. Many roads were scraped during the past year and many old stone culverts were replaced by metal culverts.
In Ballardvale most of the streets were oiled and some of the sidewalks repaired. Some of these streets should have the same treatment that Andover Street on the plains received last year, namely a scarifying and two coats of sixty-five per cent asphalt
18
road oil. This gives them an excellent cover and makes them free from dust.
The new cement road on Elm Street from Washington Avenue to the North Andover line which was built last year is now a part of the state highway. This road was built by J. W. O'Connell of Boston, Mass., at a cost to the town of $18,000.00.
The new road on Haverhill Street from the North Andover line to the residence of Leonidas Hamel was built under Section 34, Chapter 90, of the General Laws. The state, county and town paid an equal share. The contract was given to the town and the work on the drainage system was started in August and the job was completed around November 1. The drainage system cost $5,662.75 and the cost of the road work including excavating, filling, stone, binding, shoulder work, trucking and labor was $19,093.05. The cost of the entire job follows:
19 catchbasins

Total
$24755.80
Work on Abbot Street was started June 4th and finished July 11th. There were 6522 square yards of road built at a cost of $8,904.79. This does not include the $135.00 spent on side- walks and $530.33 on drains. The cost of the entire job per yard figures $1.47 and $1.37 per square yard for the road work alone.
Sidewalk work was done on the following streets: Wolcott Avenue, Bartlet Street, Main Street, Highland Road, Chestnut Street, School Street, Summer Street, Florence Street, Essex Street and Andover Street (B. V.). On Wolcott Avenue 203.5 square yards of granolithic sidewalk were built and 24 square yards of re-inforced driveway. Bids were asked and P. L. Hardy was the low bidder. The tar sidewalk work was done by W. F. Duffee of Haverhill, Mass.
