1941 REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR COUNTY AID TO AGRICULTURE AND THE HAMPDEN COUNTY IMPROVEMENT LEAGUE


Town of Wilbraham


Agricultural Work


The agricultural educational projects are conducted on a county-wide basis with commodity groups rather than town or community units. However, all local dairymen, poultrymen, vegetable, fruit, and commercial potato and tobacco growers are kept informed, are invited to special or district meetings, and are visited by the County Agent in connection with their problems. The work of the past year has included the follow- ing projects: Pasture and hayland improvement; soil conser- vation and testing; livestock management and disease control; plant pest and rodent control; the grading and marketing of farm produce; farm financing and record keeping; woodlot management; the construction and remodeling of barns, poultry houses, and storages; land drainage; home gardens and grounds improvement; and general economic information.


Fifty-four farmers of Wilbraham were enrolled in the national agricultural conservation program this year.


Home Bureau Work


There were twelve different Home Bureau projects carried in the Town of Wilbraham during the past year. These in- cluded such projects as breadmaking, nutrition, home manage- ment, food preservation, home grounds, and the like.


In all there were 22 leaders for these twelve projects who held twenty-seven different meetings and demonstrations which were attended by 255 people. All of the projects seemed to be very well received, especially the nutrition projects and the sewing machine clinic. A number of women who have not taken similar work in the past were enrolled in several of these projects, and there seemed to be a general awakening of new


59


interest in the Town as a whole. There were some very ex- cellent and enthusiastic leaders in charge.


4-H Club Work


There were seven different 4-H Club projects carried on in Wilbraham during the past year; namely, garden, handicraft, dairy, conservation, food, hostesses, and photography. Eleven clubs were organized with twelve leaders, four committee mem- bers, and seventy-five boys and girls enrolled.


The 4-H Committee members have been very active and very cooperative and helpful in all the work for the year.


Several members in the 4-H Clubs took high honors in county-wide contests.

State Auditor's Report


Mr. Theodore N. Waddell


Director of Accounts


Department of Corporations and Taxation


State House, Boston.


Sir:


As directed by you I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Wilbraham for the year ending De- cember 31, 1941, and submit the following report thereon.


The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the several departments collecting or disbursing money for the town, were examined, checked, and verified.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were ex- amined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were analyzed and checked with the records of the departments collecting money for the town and with the other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury. The payments were compared with the treasury warrants approved by the board of selectmen authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds and with the selectmen's classified record of expenditures. The addition of the cash book was verified, and the cash balance December 31, 1941 was proved by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements received from the banks of deposit.


The payments on account of debt and interest were proved by comparison with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities and coupons on file.


67


The savings bank books, representing the investment of the trust funds in the custody of the town treasurer, were examined and listed, the income being proved and the with- drawals verified by comparison with the treasurer's record of receipts.


The books and accounts of the town collector were ex- amined and checked in detail. The poll, property, and motor vehicle excise taxes recommitted February 7, 1941, were audited and proved, and the subsequent commitment lists of all taxes were added and proved with the assessors' warrants. The recorded collections were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the recorded abatements were checked, and the out- standing accounts were listed and proved.


The departmental accounts receivable, including water accounts recommitted February 7, 1941 were audited and proved, and the subsequent lists of charges committed were added. The recorded collections and abatements were checked, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.


Verification of the outstanding accounts was obtained by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts as listed are correct.


The collector's cash balance December 31, 1941, was proved by reconciliation of the bank balance with a statement furn- ished by the bank and by actual count of the cash in the office.


The balance sheet appended to this report shows that there are uncollected taxes dating back to the levy of 1937. It is recommended that prompt action be taken to collect the taxes of prior years.


The records of tax titles held by the town were examined and checked with the collector's and the treasurer's accounts and with the records at the Registry of Deeds.


The financial transactions of the town clerk were ex- amined. The recorded receipts for dog and sporting licenses were checked with the record of licenses issued, and the pay- ments to the State and town treasurers were verified. The receipts for gasoline license renewals were checked and the payments to the treasurer were verified. The town clerk's cash on hand December 31, 1941, was proved by actual count.


The appropriations voted by the town were listed from the town clerk's record of town meetings and a comparison


68


with the aggregate amounts chargeable against each appropria- tion showed that the town officials have kept the expenditures within the amounts provided.


The surety bonds filed with the town by the town clerk, treasurer, and town collector were examined and found to be in proper form.


The receipts for licenses issued by the board of selectmen were checked with the record of licenses granted, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The surety bonds filed with the town by individuals to whom liquor licenses were issued were examined and found to be in proper form.


The accounts of the sealer of weights and measures were examined. The recorded receipts were checked with the record of fees charged, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The recorded receipts of the dental clinic were checked and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The records of accounts receivable of the forest warden and of the public welfare, school, and cemetery departments were examined. The recorded collections and abatements were checked, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.


The recorded receipts of the school department for sales and for miscellaneous charges were added and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The receipts of the librarian for fines, etc., were checked and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The savings bank book representing the investment of the Morton L. Day Library Fund in the custody of the library trustees was examined, the income being proved and the ex- penditures being verified.


The books and accounts of the water department were examined. The records of charges for the sale of water and for water services were added, the recorded receipts were com- pared with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements were checked, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.


The recorded receipts for water connection deposits were checked, the transfers to water accounts receivable and the refunds to depositors were verified, and the deposits on hand December 31, 1941, were listed and proved.


69


Ledger accounts were compiled, and a balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on December 31, 1941.


The balance sheet indicates that the town is in excellent financial condition.


For the cooperation received from all town officials during the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.


Respectfully submitted, HERMAN B. DINE,


Assistant Director of Accounts.
