NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
NO FAVORITISM ON 
NORTH SHORE. 
Cor. SoHtTER REFUTES THE CHARGE 
THat WEALTHY GETS THE 
Best oF Motu Work. 
Charges that North Shore estates 
were favored with special attention 
by the state forester in his work of 
suppressing the gypsy and brown tail 
moths were made before the legisla- 
tive committee on agriculture ‘Tues- 
day, which gave a hearing upon the 
governor’s message and recommenda- 
tions relating to this subject. 
Col. William D. Sohier refuted 
these charges, defending the North 
Shore from the charge of favoritism. 
He said that the residents of the 
North Shore subscribed from their 
own pockets $25,000, besides the 
amounts they have expended on their 
own estates, of which nothing is said, 
and they are conducting the work 
with the commonwealth on the co- 
operative plan. 
He cited a piece of woods on which 
two years ago there was not a leaf 
left and which did not have a leaf 
stripped last summer because of the 
effective work that has been put in. 
“We are not trying on the North 
Shore to spend a lot of money, 
either,” said Col. Sohier. “We are 
cutting down the cost. We cut it 
down last year to a third and now to 
a quarter. I have not seen anybody 
come u» here and tell you what it 
costs for this effective work. They 
talk about accounting, but the real 
question is: ‘Did you get a dollar 
back for a dollar spent?’ and we 
think that we can prove to you that 
we have done that on the North 
Shore.” 
Many of the residents have ex- 
pended enormous amounts of money 
in protecting their own estates. He 
named W. B. Walker, of Manchester, 
who spent $3,000; Philip Dexter of 
Manchester, who spent $10,000; and 
said that there were any number whe 
subscribed from $500 to $1,000 apiece 
last season for this work. “They do 
think,” continued Col. Sohier, “that 
if they are willing to put out their 
money, the state should co-operate 
with them, and that is all that is 
asked.”

dozen years ago she purchased some 
finely located real estate at Magnolia, 
and had devoted the last few years to 
the development of it. The North

erty at Magnolia were among the
