TO THE VOTERS OF THE TOWN OF CARVER
In connection with the appropriation made at the an- nual Town Meeting on March 2nd, 1925, relative to the purchase of Fire Equipment for the Town of Carver, the Selectmen beg to advise you that after due consideration and a careful investigation, it was thought advisable to again consult the town before entering into an expendi- ture of $1,800.00 for apparatus which in their opinion might prove unsatisfactory in serving the needs of this town.
Our investigation has led us to believe, that as first aid towards the protection of fire in this town that the pur- chase and careful distribution of a proper number of hand extinguishers would not only save the town money, but would be a step forward towards solving the fire question of this town.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNERS.
You are hereby required on or after January 1, 1926, to destroy the gypsy and brown tail moths on your prop- erty in this town.
This notification is in accordance with Chapter 381, Acts of 1905, as amended by Chapter 268, Acts of 1906, which require cities and towns to destroy the eggs, cat- erpillars, pupae and nests of the gypsy and brown tail moth, under heavy penalty for failure to comply with the provisions of the law.
If a property owner fails to destroy such eggs, cater- pillars, pupae and nests, then the city or town is re- quired to destroy the same, and the cost of the work, in whole or in part, according to the value of the land, is assessed upon and becomes a lien on the land. (See Section 6, Chapter 381).
The Selectmen ask owners and tenants to co-operate with the town in its work on highways and other pub- lic grounds by doing effective work on their premises. Citizens who have cleaned their premises of the moths,
-53 --
but find their trees endangered by the neglect of owners of adjoining estates, should make complaint to the Se- lectmen. The infestation of a residential neighborhood by the neglect of a few will not be tolerated.
The eggs of the gypsy moth should be destroyed at once with creosote. They should never be scraped off the object on which they are laid. Careful search should be made for gypsy moth egg clusters, not only on trees, but also on house walls, stone walls, fences and in rubbish heaps, etc. Trees in which cavities occur and which it is not desirable to cut, should have the cavities tinned or cemented. This is important. The present and future cost of combating this insect can be greatly reduced by cutting and burning worthless brush, hollow trees, etc. A few trees well cared for are more valua- ble to the property owner and the community than a large number of neglected trees.
The nests of the brown tail moth should be cut from the trees, carefully collected and burned in a stove or furnace.
Full instructions as to best methods of work against the moths may be obtained from the Local Superintend- ent, James S. McKay, or from the State Forester, State House, Boston, Mass.
Work done by contractors should be inspected and approved by the local superintendent before payment for the same is made.
