NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNERS
You are hereby required on or after January 1, 1925, 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, 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
-38-
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 valu- able 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.

Selectmen.

EXCERPTS FROM TOWN MEETING RECORDS
March S
Voted to instruct the Moderator to appoint a com- mittee of three to plan for a base ball park to be financed by the Soldier's war bonus of $680.62, and to be known as a war memorial.
Voted to authorize the selectmen to appoint a commit- tee of three to act with the Savery Avenue committee in considering the desirability of acquiring a town forest and report at some future town meeting.
The Savery Avenue Committee submitted the following report which was referred to the town forest committee :
"Your committee, after careful study of the matter of preserving Savery's Avenue and the woodland along its border herewith submit for your consideration, two plans :
First, the acquiring of about five rods along each side which could be trimmed and cleared of underbrush in such a manner as not only make more attractive Savery's Avenue, but would also be of some assistance in prevent- ing possible loss by small fires that are becoming fre- quent during the Summer season.
Second, your committee learns that through an article that appears in the town warrant you will have before you the matter of a town forest. We are unanimous in the opinion that the best solution towards the preserva- tion of Savery's Avenue is placed before you in this article. By the acquiring of the land on both sides from swamp to swamp you will not only solve the problem in question, that of preserving Savery Avenue, but you will, by a town forest here, greatly add to the natural beauties of Savery's Avenue, and at the same time build a monu- ment to the town of Carver. Savery's Avenue is recog-
-51-
nized and recorded as one of the most noted and most beautiful scenic drives in Massachusetts. The wood lots bordering these drives have in years past been cut off so that today they are in most part covered with handsome white pine and oak in all stages of growth. We further believe that the clearing of this strip of underbrush from swamp to swamp under this second plan would be of much greater fire protection than the five rod plan, and might mean the saving of large property values to the town of Carver, the loss of which would mean many times the present cost of acquiring.
Your committee unanimously recommend this second plan, and would earnestly urge its adoption.

Also to instruct the Town Treasurer to pay to said County an amount equal to all assessments collected by July 1st, 1927, in accordance with this vote, and to pay the balance of the total sum of money due the County; the Assessors shall raise the same in the tax levy of the current year.
