REPORT OF MOTH DEPARTMENT


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: Gentlemen :


As Agent for the suppression of the Brown Tail and Gypsy Moths I submit the following:


I am glad to report a very noticeable decrease in Gypsy moths due largely to the ice storm. We have found a great many egg clus- ters which failed to hatch. There is also a substantial decrease of Brown Tail moths, although the infectation is more scattered.


Yours respectfully,


HARRIS M. BRIGGS.


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: Gentlemen :


As Tree Warden I submit the following :


Brush was cut on all the curves which I considered dangerous. Regarding the pruning following the ice storm, we have been over about three-quarters of the Town. My reason for not having fin- ished this work is not being able to get experienced help. I would recommend that the unexpended balance be allowed to finish this work this year. Also $400.00 for brush cutting.


Yours respectfully,


HARRIS M. BRIGGS.

REPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen :


As Park Commissioners we submit the following:


During the summer the commons at the Centre and North were kept mowed and raked. We had planned to paint the band stand and flag pole but after paying for mowing and care of flag there was not enough money available to do the painting. This accounts for the unexpended balance. We would recommend an appropriation of $150.00 and the unexpended balance.

There have been few outbreaks of any contagious cases this past year, and these have been easily isolated to prevent further spread. Again I want to speak of the aid which a School Nurse is to a community in preventing the spread of contagious cases. The present nurse is doing particularly good work.

REPORT OF DEMONSTRATION WORK IN AGRI- CULTURE AND HOME ECONOMICS IN THE TOWN OF TEWKSBURY FOR THE YEAR ENDING DEC. 31, 1922.


An appropriation of $150 was made at the Annual Town Meet- ing for demonstration work under the direction of the Middlesex County Bureau of Agriculture and Home Economics. Following is a report of the work done by this organization in Tewksbury:


Agents of the Bureau made sixty-six farm and home visits dur- ing the year. The County Agricultural Agent organized an automo- bile poultry tour to study some successful poultry plants in the northern part of the County. .


Bureau moving pictures were shown twice to a total audience of 230 people.


Most of the work of the Bureau was done with boys and girls, there being forty-five enrolled in different Club projects. Some of the best work was done in garden and canning during the past sum- mer. Agents of the Bureau held twenty-seven meetings with boys' and girls' clubs. These clubs were organized in all parts of the Town. Velma Trull won a two-day trip to M. A. C. for her work in both Home Economics and Canning. A canning exhibit was held in connection with the Middlesex North exhibit at Lowell, which created much favorable attention. Local leaders employed by the Bureau to assist regular staff workers were Miss Mary McPherson and Myrton Fuller.


Middlesex County continues to lead all others in the United States in the number of boys and girls enrolled in club projects. There were 2,965 enrolled in various club projects and they produced $75,475 worth of products during the year. All of these young peo- ple were under the leadership of agents of the County Bureau and 184 paid and volunteer local leaders.

PUBLIC LIBRARY


The Trustees of the Public Library submit the following report for the year ending Dec. 31, 1921 :


The report of the Auditor will give in detail the expenditure in and for the Public Library.


The report of the Librarian will give a very clear account of the Library, its condition, the number of books in use, the number of books added, either by purchase or by donation, also the circulation during the year.


During the past year many visitors have inspected the Public Library, and expressed their compliments on its quality and size.


The increased patronage of the Library brings to our attention certain facts, viz .: The space occupied at present by the Public Library is too limited; a reading room is urgently required, and ad- ditional shelving space for future additions to the Library.


We call attention to these needs.


The Trustees commend the Librarian and her assistants for their earnest and courteous efforts during the past year.


The Trustees, in behalf of the Town, return their sincere thanks to all friends and patrons of the Library who have so manifested their interest in its welfare and success during the past year, that we are enabled to close this report by their work.


The past year has been successful and satisfactory to the Trustees.


We request the Town to grant us for Public Library an appro- priation of $750, and the money arising from taxation of dogs.


Respectfully yours,


ALBERT C. BLAISDELL, HARRIETTE G. LEE, KATE FOLSOM, EDITH A. NORRIS, GEORGE E. MARSHALL, EDGAR SMITH,


Trustees.
