TOWN OF CASTLETON
EXPLANATION OF GENERAL FUND EXPENSES
Salaries-Town Manager's salary was larger this year because it covered a full year.
Office Expenses-Clerk's salary same as above. Town Reports also cost more due to more pages in the report.
County Tax-The purpose of this tax is to defray the expenses of the County Court House and Jail. The rate this year is 1 3/4 cents.
Farm Bureau-This assessment is required by law and is for the purpose of paying an Agricultural Agent for each county.
State Highway-This assessment is required by law and is a State assessment for maintenance of State Highways. This year we pay $2299.46.
Elections-This item was larger this year due to Primary, State, and National Elections.
Interest on Debt-The Town now pays 21/2 % on its borrowed money.
Insurance on Town Property-The Fire Insurance this year was $85.08 more than last year due to the fact that a larger num- ber of policies were renewed.
Town Hall-Due to the exterior repairs last year there were only a few minor repairs required this year amounting to $75.54.
Town Farm-There was only $16.56 spent at the Town Farm this year, covering only very minor repairs.
Crystal Beach-The additional expense incurred this year was due to building a new float and new screens total $116.49.
Cemetery Care-The usual amount was spent this year $47.50 for cutting grass and weeds and clearing.
Town Hall Clock-The regular maintenance cost of $25.75.
Library-The usual appropriation $475.00.
Memorial Day-Same as above.
Dog Damage-This expense incurred by dogs killing more sheep.
Police and Justice Fees-Incurred by special police duty and trans- fers of Justice fees.
40
ANNUAL REPORT OF
Lawyer Fees-These are larger this year due to bonding the debt and tax sale of Williams Est.
Health and Vital Stat .- Reporting is less this year due to the failure of Health Officer to present his bill.
Fire Fighting-$157.98 more this year due to one very large fire. Highway-According to State laws certain highway expenses (all work on bridges over 6 ft. span) must be paid out of General Fund.
Flood Damage-Due to the series of floods last Spring the "weak spots" in the drainage facilities of the Town back roads could be readily seen. Rather than repairing certain of these weak spots back in their former condition it was advisable to im- prove them so as to eliminate future washouts.
Snow Removal and Sanding-By the State law, all this expense must come out of the General Fund, more about this item appears in the Selectmen's Report. In addition there is a State aid of $50.00 per mile of selected highways, required to be matched by the Town.
Surplus Commodities-This expense has increased to $550.00 due to receiving larger stocks of commodities.
W.P.A. Road Projects-The greater part of the difference in cost between this year and last was due to the fact that last year the Government contributed about $2300 to material and truck costs.
W.P.A. Sewing-The costs of materials for 1940 amounted to con- siderably more than in 1939, as you may observe in the follow- ing report. The reason for such an increase is the fact that in 1940 the Federal Gov't. required that a stipulated amount of yardage be turned out by each sewer each month. In 1939 no definite amount of turn-over was required. Consequently the production was increased considerably, automatically increasing the expense for materials.
Blister Rust-The Town furnishes transportation for workers only. Skating Rink-Additional supplies and the furnishing of some labor accounts for the increased cost.

ANNUAL REPORT OF
BLISTER RUST CONTROL
The Town of Castleton has approximately 3,200 acres of white pine, which is more than any other town west of the Green Moun- tain Range. The pine has an estimated value of about $79,000 which does not include the value of the protection it gives to streams, soils, watersheds, or its valuable addition to the scenery, which is an important factor in the town due to its popular summer resort centers.
White Pine Blister Rust is a fatal fungus disease which can be controlled only by removing all currant and gooseberry bushes within 900 feet of where the white pine stands. Small areas were eradicated in Castleton as early as 1922 but during the years 1937. 1938 and 1939 the eradication work in the town was completed using W.P.A. employees on an emergency relief project. Although all initial eradication work has been completed, it will be neces- sary to make inspections from time to time and, if conditions justify it, re-work the areas found to be in need of additional eradication work.
The Blister Rust Control project uses only W.P.A. employees and eligible Castleton men in varying numbers were used during the entire year of January 1, 1940 to December 31, 1940. During most of the periods January 1st to April 30th and September 21st to December 31, 1940, two Castleton men were employed on map- ping work which is conducted during the fall, winter and early spring months. During the period May 1st to September 20, 1940, which we term the eradication season, an average of about sixteen men were employed from the Town of Castleton.
During the calendar year 1940 a total of $4,266.44 of Federal W.P.A. money was paid to Castleton men assigned to the White Pine Blister Rust Control project. The Town of Castleton furnished transportation for these men at a total cost of $243.00 for the en- tire eradication season.
As all necessary eradication work in the town of Castleton was completed during the 1939 eradication season, the Castleton men worked the entire 1940 season in the town of Hubbardton. During the 1940 season the Castleton crews removed the currant and goose- berry bushes from 4,350 acres of land in the town of Hubbardton.

ANNUAL REPORT OF
TOWN MANAGER'S MESSAGE
As new comers to your community, Mrs. Davis and myself are happy to have the privilege of sharing your community life and it is our desire to be of service by working with and sharing your many social, civic and other community problems.
As your Town Manager, since I have only recently taken up my duties here, it will be impossible for me to make many recom- mendations. It is my intention in this message to simply point out the results of my observations during the past two months.
I have noted a marked interest in Town affairs by the Town's people, which indicates a healthy condition, and I trust it will continue so. I pledge my cooperation to maintain such interest.
Castleton is not primarily an industrial Town, while the Staso and the slate concerns give considerable assistance from a tax standpoint, we need an industry employing a small number of both men and women that will bring in some outside money. Our re- sort section is of very valuable assistance during the Summer months, but we need some industry to assist unemployed citizens through the balance of the year. It is my desire to do what I can to relieve this situation.
I believe the bonding of the Town is a step in the right direc- tion toward putting Castleton finances on a sound basis.
I would like to emphasize a point which the Selectmen have mentioned in their report. Winter Maintenance is fast becoming very expensive, with the increased demands for sanding and snow removal. It is my observation that it will be necessary to raise more money by taxation if you demand that all our roads be kept free from snow and thoroughly sanded.
I hesitate to ask you to spend your money, but I do not see how we can avoid the expense of a new road grader this Spring. The two graders we have at present are badly worn and very un- economical to use.
My report is necessarily short this year, but with the assistance and cooperation of Town Officers and citizens I hope to carry on the Town's business in a manner this coming year that will be a credit to us all. I am happy to be with you.
A. C. DAVIS,
Town Manager.
