OF OFFICERS BRANDON, VERMONT
In accordance with the vote of last Town Meeting an eight par contract was made with the Neshobe Electric Co., and the system changed as recommended.
Since the new system was installed we have added a few more lights in Brandon Village in places which were not suf- ficiently lighted and have placed lights on Barnes Flat and the road between the Stone Mill and Buttle's Corner.
The lighting system now consists of nine arc lamps, ten 60 candle power Tungstens, eighty-six 40 candle power Tung- stens and fifty-four 32 candle power Tungstens.
To assist the Neshobe Electric Co., in giving the best pos- sible service all citizens are requested to notify them of any lamp not giving good service.

Your board of selectmen inspected the town farm Jan. 29, 1913, and took an inventory of the stock, tools, produce, furniture and bedding and have filed a copy of the same in town clerk's office where it may be inspected by anyone in- terested.
The farm and buildings appear to be well kept up and the inmates as contented as could be expected.
There is an abundant supply of produce and provisions on hand, the stock is in good condition and we think the in- terests of the town are well looked after by the present management.
