Exhibit C.
sTRDnrs, LABOR AND TEAMS.


OF the approximately twenty-five
miles of streets within town limits
nearly one-fourth are still without
paved cutters and the sidewalks of
about one-third are not yet tagged or
-cemented, which increases the labor
of keeping them clean. In winter a
SNOW pillow helps by clearing the gut
tiers but at all times the Street Com
missioner has at his disposal only a
horse and buggy for all purposes and,
for street cleaning exclusively, one
regular employe and an insufficient
number of temporarily engaged men
and teams.
AS to the insut1iciency, during ten
months, January-October, of 1906, the
amount (including the pay of the one
regular employee expended for street
cleaning labor and teams was in round
numbers S2,7OO. This would provide
not exceeding loco men and 300 teams
1000 men at $3.50 equals $500; 300
teams at $500 equals 81 200; together
81, 1000 counting 300 working days a
year, and so $50 for these ten months,
the average would be men and ] l-6
teams working day. This for rs
miles of streets is manifestly made
Quate: all the more because efficiency
is greatly lessened by the unayoidably
too haphazard selection Of the tempo
rarilyengaged and their lack Of exper-
ience0f street cleaning duties. (See
