South Norwalk Water Com-
missioners to Try Now
Scheme’to Purify the Water
at Wilton Lakes—Will Have
Valuable Timber Land in
Twenty Years
The South Norwalk Water Commis-
sioners commenced today an improve-
ment to the water shed of the city‘s
plant, which will have far reaching
benefits to the water shed, and which
will in time prove a very valuable in—
vestment to the city. It Is the scien-
tific planting of trees on the water
shed and will be commenced under the‘
direction of Austin I". Hawes. of New
Haven, who is connected with the
Connecticut Agricultural Experiment
Station.
Mr. liuwes arrived in town this moi»
iiiiig and had a consultation with the
water coniiiiisslouors regarding; the
matter, which has been carefully iii-
vestigated for some time past by the
commissioners. Mr. iiuwes proceeded
to the water shell this morning to ill-
spw-l it and make plans for the scien-
tific planting of trees. This will stop
a great deal of the evaporation from
the water shed. will tend to purify the
Wiiif'l‘ running into the reservoirs, and
in twenty years will give the city the
ownership of a large. quantity of val-
liable timberland. .
Mr. llawes recommends the planting
of white pine. Scotch pine, chestnut,
white oak, red oak and Norway spruce
trees,
A thick screen of trees will be plant-
ed at a. distance of about lilo feet from
the edges of the ponds. brooks and
reservoirs, which will stop blowing
leaves, prevent fallen limbs and other
vegetation from getting into the water
supply.
A large number of water shedsxabout
this country and and in other countries
have tried this plan and found that It
was a very excellent thing for the wat—
er supply,
The city of Middletown has called
in the services of Mr. linwes and other

except the cost of railroad fares and
hotel expenses: The work will cover
about five years" time and the expendi-
ture of about Milli ii your. The city at
present owns about forty acres of land
which may thus be planted and at the
end of twenty yours forty acres of
line timber would increase the value
of the water system greatly.
