Report of the Inspector of Animals and Food Products


Board of Health, Melrose, Mass.


Gentlemen:


I have examined the neat cattle and swine in Melrose and visited thirty-four (34) barns and examined two hundred and forty-five (245) cows and young cattle. The barns were all fairly clean, some in very good condition and others not so well, but all, as a whole, very good. The number of swine has not been kept track of as the book has been sent in to the State House. The general condition and health of cows was exceptionally good, no cows being quarantined. Seventeen visits have been made to horses suspicious of having glanders, but in all cases the animal was free from this disease. No rabies has been seen in Melrose the past year.


Very truly, (Signed) W. M. SIMPSON,


Inspector.


Report of the Inspector of Milk and Vinegar


To the Honorable Board of Health, Melrose, Mass: Gentlemen :


It is with great pleasure as Inspector of Milk and Vinegar in the City of Melrose during the past year, that I have found the various samples analyzed, with very few exceptions, to come within the limits of the law. By bringing a few cases into court, it is hoped that the effect on our milk dealers will be that they will take greater interest and care to keep well above the legal standard.


It is the wish of the Inspector that every family in our city should receive from our dealers nothing but pure, clean, unadulterated milk. It has been my purpose not only to look after the quality of the milk, but also that it be kept in clean, wholesome receptacles and at a proper temperature.


Yours respectfully, (Signed) CALEB W. CLARK, Inspector of Milk and Vinegar.

Report of the Treasurer


Melrose, Mass., March 11, 1911. The Honorable, the Mayor, and the Board of Aldermen,


Melrose, Mass.


Gentlemen :- I submit herewith my report of receipts and payments by this Department for the year 1910. The Auditor gives in his report the details of the City Debt; it therefore seems unnecessary for me to repeat it here.


In the report of, a Committee of your Honorable Board last year, it was suggested that it would be helpful if the Treasurer would report receipts and payments in each ac- count for each month. I have such a report in preparation, but as it involves the making of a great many figures and will take some time to complete, I have thought it not wise to delay this report, which is made in the usual form, but the monthly report will be sent to you in time to be included in the printed report if you so desire.


Yours truly, WILLIAM R. LAVENDER, City Treasurer.


WILLIAM R. LAVENDER, City Treasurer.


In account with CITY OF MELROSE.
