The work of the Boy Scouts in clearing places of snow and placing thereon feed for the birds is commend- able, but the results would have been Detter if the feeding had been earlier. Tt is noticed that there have been many birds, strangers in this section, Guring the present winter, evidently ooming from the far north to escape the unusually cold weather, but mest- ing with equally cold weather here, and in many instances the suffering ‘of thess feathered strangers became unemdurable and dead birds are more numerous than for many years.

No | Speeial appropriation is made for the | care of public trees, the expense being | pald from the miscellaneous fund | which, by reason of unforeseen ex- penses, is now at a low ebb. The town | P cials are sconomizing wherever pos- | alble and hope to be able to conduct the town affairs without being obliged | to call a financial town meeting for a mpecial appropriation io meet cur- rent expenses. i The annual financlal town meetig | will be held in May and at that time it is expected appropriations will in- clude & sum sufficlent to removeihe existing dangers in comnection with the tress and o have them given proper care for preservation.
