All residents and non resident prop
erty owners received a notice from the
office of the selectmen last Friday,
notifying them chat they must destroy
all nests of the brown-tail moths on
their property before January LIST,
1915. 1t would appear that the noti-
fication of property owners in all parts
of the town is unnecessary, as the
slight infestation of these pests in
Monsoon is confined to districts 5,
Z and 10. No. 5 is the State avenue
district near the Palmer line; No.
Z is the section in the vicinity of
Fay's Bridge, and No. 1O-where
most all of the moths have been found
in past years-is Silver Street, So
called, and adjoins North Wilbrahm.
Those acquainted with the winter
webs of the Brown tail moths should
destroy the same by collection and
burning. Inspection for posi- ble spread
of the pests will be made. The notices
sent out covered both Gypsy and
Brown tail moths, but are existent
nearer than North Brook field, and
there only in very small numbers.
