In conclusion, I wish to express my deep apprecia- tion to your Honorable Board for the staunch support and wise counsel given me in the performance of many unpleasant duties.


To the Honorable Justice of the Third District Court, Arthur P. Stone, and his assistants we are deeply grateful for their loyal co-operation with us in the en- forcement of the law.


To the Registrar of Motor Vehicles, Frank A. Goodwin, I extend my thanks for his strong guiding hand in assisting us, as he is assisting every Chief of Police in the state, in trying to make our streets safe for our citizens against the drunken driver, the speed- ster, and reckless drivers of autos.


Respectfully submitted, THOMAS O. D. URQUHART, Chief of Police.

GYPSY AND BROWN TAIL MOTH DEPARTMENT


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen: I herewith submit my report as Super- intendent of the department for the suppression of Gypsy and Brown Tail Moths for the year ending December 31, 1924. The work of this department has been carried out mainly on the same lines as pursued last year with the exception of clearing and brush cutting on neglected lots. All woodland spraying was discontinued on ac- count of the reduction of last year's appropriation.


The condition of the town is very good. There are, however, scattered infestations of the Gypsy Moth nests found in all parts of the town and if let go unnoticed for a period of two or three years we would again have the same conditions that prevailed a few years past and all the money spent in bringing about our present condi- tion would have been wasted. The average number of eggs in one nest is 500 and you can readily see that it would only mean that if a few nests were left to pupaeat it would only take a short time to again have a severe infestation.


During the late summer we had a bad infestation of the Fall Web Worm, which many mistook for the Brown Tail Moth. These insects whose large and un- sightly webs appear in the late summer are especially noticeable wherever there are willows, or cherry trees. On the willows in the rear of Mt. Pleasant Cemetery six hundred and fifty-eight nests were destroyed. In the rear of St. John's Church on Academy street it was necessary to remove the crowns of five cherry trees on account of this insect. I expect that there will be a large infestation this year as they pass the winter hidden amongst trash and leaves on the ground. The best methods of control are spraying and cutting out all wild cherries.


236


237


GYPSY AND BROWN TAIL MOTH DEPARTMENT


The Satin Moth is noticeable wherever the Poplar is. The town will have little trouble from this moth as we have but a few Poplars on our streets. It will be necessary for private owners that have Poplars on their estates to have their trees sprayed especially for this insect as it requires a later and stronger spraying than for the Gypsy Moth.


By request from the Board of Health this depart- ment sprayed the stagnant pools in the rear of Mt. Pleas- ant Cemetery, in Menotomy Park, on all the ash dumps and along the Summer Street Boulevard near Lexington Line for the mosquito nuisance at a cost to this depart- ment of $95.00 for which we were reimbursed.


This past year the appropriation was $5,000 and of this amount a little over $1,000 was returned in taxes from private work. If we intend to keep the town in the clean condition that it is at present I would recom- mend that no further reduction be made in this appro- priation. Through the efforts of your Honorable Board and myself I am able to report that the badly infested area in Belmont reported last year has been cleaned by the State Department. The following is an account of expenditures of the year.
