Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forty-First Annual Report of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station: Being the Annual Report for the Tear Ended October 31, 1917 and Including Bulletins Nos. 196 to 206 As authorized by law, Mr. B. H. Walden was appointed the director's deputy to take immediate charge of the work. The law was not effective until May 16, 1917, by which time much of the spring clearing should have been done. It was extremely difficult to get labor of any kind to do the necessary work and almost impossible to get efficient labor. There was also much delay and added difficulty with labor because the work cannot be carried on steadily to a conclusion but has to be suspended during certain perigee tides. Under such conditions work was greatly delayed and much not wholly unreasonable imitation developed among marsh Owners, because of the tramming of marsh grass by the workers, which would have been avoided if the work could have been seasonably finished.
