WATER SHED YIELD.
The following table shows the average daily yield of our water shed, by months for the year 1910, and the average daily yield for the year.
It will be noted, that for the month of July, our ponds de- creased an amount equal to our consumption, and consequently our water shed yield was zero.
In September, our pond decrease was greater than our water shed yields, and we get a negative quantity for our yield. The average daily yield for the year was 1,056,000 gallons, and our average daily consumption was 1,251,000 gallons, which shows that our consumption exceeded our yield by about 195,000 gal- lons daily.
This accounts for our decrease in pond storage of about 72 million gallons, as shown on another page. Another short table is added, as a matter of record, showing the average daily yield and rainfall for the years, 1908, 1909, 1910.

WATER ANALYSIS.
The State Board of Health has exercised their usual close supervision over our water supplies and have made frequent analyses in order to detect any deterioration in our supplies, if such should occur.
From careful inspection of their analyses it will be seen that there is very little variation in the quality of our water supply from year to year and it ranks as one of the purest, softest and most colorless surface water supplies in the State.
Respectfully submitted,
A. E. BLACKMER,
Superintendent.

REPORT OF FISH COMMITTEE.
REPORT OF THE FISH COMMITTEE OF THE TOWN
OF PLYMOUTH FOR THE YEAR 1910.
At the annual meeting held in March, 1910, the Town ap- propriated one thousand dollars for the use of the Fish Com- mittee.
The committee met and organized with Dr. E. D. Hill as chairman and Harry B. Davis as secretary.
The question of stocking ponds or streams with trout was taken up and it was decided that for the present, at least, it was not expedient to make the attempt.
There have been some attempts within the last year or two by clubs and individuals to stock some of the ponds and streams and the committee felt that it would be wise to await the re- sult of these experiments.
The only available supply during the past year which could be used for stocking purposes was the white perch. As in previous years large numbers of these fish came into Ship Pond.
The committee decided to expend approximately one-half of the appropriation for white perch and this has been done.
In order to get the white perch from Ship Pond it was neces- sary for the committee to expend the sum of $21.87 in repair- ing the runway which had been filled up by a storm the pre- vious winter.
It is the intention of the committee, the coming year, to see what can be done in the way of improving the bass fishing.
It has been suggested that bass brought from other places
-203-
and placed in our ponds might improve the fishing, and this will be tried during the coming year.
No further appropriation will be necessary at the present time.
-
A complete report of the committee is as follows :
