Report of Forest Warden
TO THE SELECTMEN AND VOTERS OF THE TOWN :
The Forest Fire Warden respectfully submits the following report :
During the past year we have had a number of extensive forest fires, which, owing to the long sustained drought, have been very difficult to subdue. We have had three fires set by the Boston & Maine railroad, the cost of which was $52.20 which they have repaid to the town.
Because the town has nothing suitable with which to fight forest fires, I would respectfully recommend that the town pur- chases what is known as "The Average Equipment" for fighting forest fires, recommended by the State Forester, which consists of the following :
49
AVERAGE EQUIPMENT
1 wagon, 6 rakes, 14 extinguishers, 12 pails, 14 5-gal. re- charging cans, 2 back firing compression cans with tips, 96 re- charges, 6 shovels, 2 axes, 2 lanterns, 2 grub hoes.
The total cost of this apparatus with all extras will not exceed $500.00. The gross weight when loaded is about 2300 pounds. A sample of this equipment is on exhibition at 251 Causeway street, Boston, Mass. I would also recommend that the town makes a uniform price of thirty cents per hour for fighting forest fires.
T. E. COX,
Forest Warden.
