Burton, supervisor of out- side work, both Fairview and Stony irook reservoirs are in good condition. Mr. Burton recommends the installation of a gate valve on the pipe at the so- called grist mill dam at Stony Brook and the installation of twelve-inch flash- boards at hoth the Stony Brook and Fairview spillways. The recommenda- tions, i carried out, says the supervisor, would when the reservoirs are full-and water was stored above the so-called grist mill dam. increase the storage ca- pacity approximately one hundred mil- lion gallons, or about enough Water to last forty days as per the present rate Mr. Burten's report, in part, is as fol- lows: Fairvlew. Fairview reservoir is in mood condi- tion and at this date the pond is just four inches below full pond and from the last report of the state department of health, the water wasz in the best of condition for drinking purposes. The fences on bhoth sides of the pond near the well house have been renewed and painted during the year: the iron fences also have had a coat of black me- tallic paint. The fences on the property line at this reservoir will have to be re- paired where necessary during the com- Ing vear. There are a goodly number of blighted chestnut trees on this water shed that should he removed. I recommend that twelve (12) inch flash boards be install- ed on the snillway at this reservoir, with which Installation ahout twenty-five (25) million gallons additional water could be stored at a very slight cost to this de- partment. Stony Brook. Stony Brook has had all the care necessary to preduce good drinking wa- ter and the water at this date is just gix inches below full pond and accord- ing to the last. report of the state de- partment of health, the water from this reservoir was in the best possible con- dftion. \ The brooks from the pond mup have all’ been cleaned out and the grass in the meadow has been cut. We were not troubled with any odor fro mthe algae growth during the past vear. The brush on the pipe line from Stony Brook dam to a point near the Stony Brook meter honse, has all been cut down. This had not been done since the reserveir was ment, thus enabling the department. should breaks occur on the pipe line. to get at the twenty-four inch main, with- out heing inconvenienced by the very growth that was there.

The main brook from the dam and all}? of the laterals have been cleaned out as far as the basin extends, but the brooks above the basin are filled up and need| attention at once, for the time is not| far distant when we will be obliged to cgll on Meadow Brook for water to meet the ever increasinz demand. This reservoir property is a yery val- uable asset to the city, having 155 square miles area of a water shed or| more than double the area of watershed |c that Fairview reservoir has, and it is to| my mind imperative that this water ] shed be put in the best of condition as| soon as possible. i H There is an area on this shed, owned | by the city of abont thirty (30) acres, that should be reforested and I recom- i mend that this be done. There are practically no fences on the dividing property lines on this water shed and 1 recommend that fences be built where needed this coming year, in order to keep the large number of cat- tle in that locality, off the reservoir property. / Area of Water Sheds.

Shields have just been serv- ed upon Mr. Greenes by Deputy Sheriff Oscar H. Main. The compiaint is in three counts, first alleging that on November 10, 1920, Greenes stated to the New London prose- cuting attorney that s Nelson was guilty of embezdlement, in conscquence of which she was bound over for trial the in the superior court where her ac- followed. These charges, it were false, were made from of malice, there was no rea- sonable or prol - cause for the prose- cution, and M clson was compelled to spend $1,000 in her defens In the second count it is a enes on November hearing of Nellis J.
