Report of Moth Superintendent
January 1, 1933
The Gypsy moth infestation is general throughout the Town, conditions in the South district being much improved over the last two years.
We have collected a few Brown-tail Moth webs and found Satin Moths in various parts of the Town. Considerable late spraying was done to combat the Fall webworms. The general cutting and burning of much brush should greatly help condi- tions, and because of this work and a decrease in the amount of private spraying, I shall be able to maintain the excellent general condition of the Town with a decreased appropriation.
I, therefore, recommend the sum of $3750.00 to carry on the work of the Moth Department for the coming year.
Respectfully submitted,
RALPH T. BERRY, Moth Supt.

This work was done with help furnished by the Andover Emergency Committee, Soldiers Relief, and Public Welfare. The Tree Department furnished the tools, transportation, and the work was supervised by the Tree Warden.
The extra help having taken care of much of the brush work a larger amount of the appropriation will be available for tree work.
I therefore recommend that the sum of $3750.00 to carry on the work of the Tree Department for the coming year.
Respectfully submitted,
