PLANT
Meaning all the fixed assets, land, buildings, machinery and equip-

ment, mains, services, gas meters, lines, transformers, electric meters and street lights; that is, "it includes the plant proper or the works, to- gether with the distributing systems."
During the past year replacements and additions have been made as follows:
COAL GAS BENCHES
The coal gas bench No. 2, a unit consisting of six retorts, has been refilled by contract awarded to the Russell Engineering Company of St. Louis, Mo. in competitive bids from several companies. This work was finished in the early part of the summer.
No. 1 bench which has been in continuous service for. approximately 8 years, has been burned out and a similar contract for refilling was made with the same company. The work of erection is now in progress ..
BOILER BLOW-OFF
The boiler blow-off is very badly designed and is about worn out. It should be replaced by a new one, and the latter should be designed to reduce the velocity of discharge and should be placed in a new location in the yard. Such a blow-off could probably be installed for $500.00.
WATER GAS SET
Both water-gas sets have demonstrated their fittness and desira- bility in that for 20 days in the month of May, due to a breakdown in the operative machinery connected with the coal gas production, the town was supplied entirely from the water-gas production. However, it is noted that the so-called new set, purchased in 1921, has not the efficiency of the older set and it is recommended that a six foot set be substituted therefore when ever possible.
An additional exhauster has been placed in the water-gas house for standby and alternative service. This is of the nature of an addition yet not so entirely in that it was reclaimed from the coal gas equipment by the purchase of a new engine from the Troy Engine Company and. changing and repairing of the old exhaust unit."" This makes a very desirable condition. Previously the one exhausted did all the work all the time with very little opportunity for making needed adjustments and repairs. -

TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
COAL HOIST
A coal hoist such as has been installed with the new water-gas set, should be installed for the old water-gas set. This will cost about $400.
SETTLING TANK
A settling tank arranged with baffle plates to retard the flow of water, oil, and tar from the water-gas should be installed to prevent fur- ther contamination of Lake Quannapowitt. This could probably be done" for about $1,500.00.
ENGINES
For years the plant has not had adequate means of handling the tar and residual of the gas production. With the operation of water-gas, by-product was much increased. This tar has been collected in wells which were not adequate, and so over flowed into the water course and thence to the lake and caused an unsightly and filthy condition. A small pump has been bought at a very reasonable figure and the tar placed in storage tanks, and the tank cars and wagons and the source of annoy- ance removed from the water course.
The small exhauster in the purifier house on the coal gas equipment was replaced by another new and larger machine, the other was salvaged and placed in the water-gas house. (see above.)
A Rotary Displacement meter from the Connorsville Blower Works has been installed in lieu of the wet meter which measured the gas from the plant to the holder. This old meter had worn out and the new meter is the newest type of measuring device in station meters.
RECOMMENDATIONS-GAS
Gas main extensions in the following locations are recommended for the coming year, to cost approximately.

SMOKE STACK
The steel smoke stack on the boiler house will have to be renewed this coming year as the one in use is seriously impaired. Last year some 18 ft. were removed from the top on account of errosion; this makes the stack too short for effective draft and also causes a great deal of un- consumed carbon to pass off in the air to the annoyance of the near-by residents. Estimated cost for the stack to be $600.00 delivered and erected.
MAINS
During the year 1923, the length of mains was increased by 1,425 ft. at a cost of approximately $1200.00 which is made up as follows:
Cooper Street, 210 feet, 11/2 in Green Street, 90 feet, 11/2 in Wakefield Ave., 550 feet, 11/2 in. Seffield Road, 200 feet, 4 in. Swain Place, 50 feet, 2 in. Converse St. 225 feet, 3 in. Richardson Ave. 100 feet, 3 in.

GAS SERVICES
There have been installed during the year 1923, 100 new services at a cost of $2,442.22.
GAS METERS
At the beginning of the year there were 2,967 gas meters in use. This Department installed 110 meters, additional, making a total in use as of December 31st, 1923, 3.077. There were bought during the year 1923, 123 new meters at a cost of $1,503.58.
LAND-ELECTRIC
In order to have a suitable place to build the new sub-station, it was found necessary to purchase land near the center of distribution. This was obtained on Wakefield Avenue.
STRUCTURES-ELECTRIC
A new Sub-Station has been installed on Wakefield Avenue. This contract was awarded to the C. H. Whitcomb Company of Boston. The contract price was $14,354.00. This building has just been completed.
SUB-STATION EQUIPMENT
In order to be able to supply the consumers of Wakefield with better service, new electrical equipment is being installed in the new! Sub-Station. This contract was let to the Carleton-Mace Company .. The work is now in process of completion. .
OVERHEAD LINES
During the year the department installed 348 new lighting services in the town at a cost of $7,519.48.
UNDERGROUND CONDUITS
During the year 1923, it was found necessary to install underground lighting from West Water Street to Richardson Street. The cost also includes the change of lighting of four old street fixtures onto iron poles. The Edison Electric Illuminating Company of Boston has laid a duct line from the Woburn Station to our new Sub-Station on Wakefield Avenue.

REPORT OF MUNICIPAL LIGHT BOARD
Fire Alarm System
During the year the fire alarm system has been over-hauled and re- vamped. Curcuit No. 1, has been rewired and relocated. A new whist- le machine has been installed at the works on North Avenue to replace an older type. Several new boxes have been placed and old boxes re- paired and placed in out lying districts.
It is proposed to install two new boxes of the non-interfering type and one new box of the regular type, and to repair and place salvaged boxes in new locations.
It is proposed to split the circuits in Greenwood and bring Circuit No. 4 into the Greenwood Hose House board aerial, to guard against interruption of the underground by lightning.
It is estimated that these additions, changes and substitutions, ma- terial and labor, will cost approximately $2,700.00.
