The standards of a community are reflected in its trees. It has been said that trees line the road to prosper- ity. This is true to a certain extent. Trees are major landscape features and as such should be held in high regard. There is much interest in historical and noteworthy trees in various parts of the town. All of these at one time were small and were given scant consideration. The small tree of today may be the historic or noteworthy tree of tomorrow provided it is located where growing condi- tions are favorable. Property owners may procure from the Massachu- setts State Nurseries young nursery stock for reforestation for a cent apiece per thousand plus express charges. Or- ders could be divided anion~* several local purchasers. Further details may be secured from the Tree Warden. In spite of storm damage, the maintenance of the town trees was carried on within the budget appropriation. Several dead and diseased trees were removed which should be replaced as soon as possible with young trees. Respectmfully submitted, EMILE A. OLLIVTER, Tree Warden. h.r;,i 911N kiI —50— REPORT OF MOTH DEPAI?TMV�T To the Honorable Bo Town of Orleans, and of Selectmen, I hereby sub fungus di lgeases ha ill, PestYeall serio one us. made shade tree situation a the Ossircial fruit growers have long recogl"%edtlf!la 1mAossibility of Prod gtan1'0 affiorded by a °lung valuable crops Iviih °aprne, when nniarmg rogram C01uprehensive s raying° tin for °Ca sh Protection • We are fast approachingrieralb more dmuch snore °sand ornamentalbtr eSOV�dedlanned Pr°delt In the face of is factory and economicalpthan °pe alell ' do,vIj u whl acts emergency, In not a few cases s0 an down arid over a series Of ceaCUUltnl a. ass, Leaves e° Inge f many sickly and dyiugsltre ate ]l4 Is' Parts Thehaef° sage d digesting o of all trees.

Spraying with a fungicide can to a certain extent control this rust. Many people are unnecessarily worried about the effect of spraying on bird life. Orchards have been sprayed as many as eight times and the conditions suggests little or no interference with the birds. Birds do not feed on sickly or dead insects and therefore escape danger which might "result from eating poisoned insects. Respectmfully submitted, EMILE A. OLLI`'IER, Moth. Superintendent.

These racks are usually found to hold the specific quantity; only will these racks vary when very crooked wood is piled in such a manner.as to leave so- called "cat - holes." The racks should then be rounded up to overcome this deficiency. 128 cubic feet constitute a cord of wood and is usually cut 4 feet in length and piled 8 feet long on the ground to a height of 4 feet. While much firewood is sold and delivered by the cord in 4-foot lengths, a considerable amount is sold in smaller quantities, sawed into cuts of 12, 16 or 24- inches each in length. Such wood when sold this way is called "cut-up - cord" and means that the unit of measure consists of the amount of wood cut from a cord of 4 -foot wood. If cut in 12 -inch and 16 -inch lengths, it should contain no less than 96 cubic feet. If cut in 24 -inch lengths, it should contain no less than 104 cubic feet. These are the minimum amounts for cut -up cord wood and it will be noted that these amounts differ from repile yield determined by the Division of For- estry 101 cubic feet on 12 -inch cuts; 106 cubic feet on 16- inch cuts; 110 cubic feet on 24 -ineb cuts. Again, these figures are the very minimums and the dealer can not use them as an arbitrary measure, because the customer must receive the actual pile yield from the 4 -foot. sticks. In addition, a sales slip should register the actual number of cubic feet delivered. In closing, the sealer is glad to report, daring 1943, the splendid cooperation received from every contact made in the performance of his duties. respectfully submitted, CIIARLES F.

Our largest source of clam supply, the Town Cove was practically useless, as a very poor Harborway at Nauset did not allow any law ebb tides, therefore no digging. At present this condition is improving and clams are again being taken there.. An excellent set of clam seed is noted in many areas but as so many things cars happen between seed and digging time that no prediction as to the future should be made regarding this situation. The planted clam areas at Skaket were badly damaged by the heavy fee last winter, but satisfactory results, considering the damage sustained, were obtained. A fair amount were dug commercially, and many fine meals for our people and our sum- mer guests resulted from this project. The scallop beds in the Pleasant Bay area showed consider- able signs of winter kill when first examined in the Spring of last year. Some starfish were also noted and dragging for them was carried on. Just before opening time a bad death rate was noted which resulted in the loss of probably 75% of these shell- fish. A fungus growth on the shell may have been a partial cause, but although samples were submitted to the State bio- logist the real cause was never determined. Prospects for next year not yet available. Conditions such as these existing at Pleasant Bay and Skak- et are unusual and may not happen again in many years. Several of our. fishermen are engaged in taking mussels for sale, for bait purposes, from the Mill Pond area." This is a good source of income to men and a great help in cleaning out the channel and flats there. Over 800 bushels have been taken up to time of writing. May this good work continue. It becomes more apparent each year that many of our fam- ilies enjoy eating shellfish and appreciate an opportunity to ob- tain the same for food. As these people all share in the expense of our Propagation and Protection work it is only fair that they receive some special attention in making this food easily obtain- able. We have and shall continue to recommend from time. to time, when necessary and advisable, the use of small shellfish areas in, different parts of the Town, by holders of family per- mits only. This procedure has met with popular favor and we believe should be carried on. Considerable work with bulldozers was done in the Meeting House Pond to clean out sedge, but work planned for other places _72_ could not be carried out, as labor and machines could not be obtained.
