Report of Water Commissioners
When our last year's report was printed we had Grove street and Bacon square in which to lay pipes, and on April Ist Mr. Morrelli started to complete the work of pipe lay- ing. After considerable delay on account of water in trenches the pipe was finally laid and also the I-inch pipe on Everett street, and the upper part of Broad street, which completed the pipe laying job. A long delay followed but finally we succeeded in getting the streets in pretty good condition by use of the steam roller from North Attleboro. So many have inquired as to the size of pipe in the streets we here- with give a table which shows each street and size of pipe that was laid in it.

ANNUAL REPORT.
The amount of construction fund left at our last report was $4,217.61, and in the accounts which follow we show how the money has been expended and that a balance of $922.93 still remains. We received a large number of appli- cations early in the year and they were added to throughout the summer. We have now 118 takers on the system. Be- sides these we are supplying two school houses, the engine house, and the town fountain. We have some applications on hand at this time and hope to add many more to the num- ber through the present year.
In the past year we have used considerable water because of the fact that we run quite a large quantity away to clean the pipes, and later we allowed the consumers to use all they desired regardless of what the meters registered.
The amount pumped through the year is herewith ap- pended.

In the month of January 1910 we pumped 487,050 gallons. It is interesting to note the amount of water used now and the amount used in the months of June, July and August of last year. In these three months the daily average was 36,362 gallons, while the average in January was only 15,71I

Report of the Inspector of Animals
To the Selectmen of Plainville:
GENTLEMEN :- I submit the following report :
I have inspected sixty-four barns and found two hundred and three cows in milk, twenty-five cows that were dry, ten bulls, fifty-five young stock, five goats and fifty-eight swine.
Nearly all the animals were in good condition and all free from contagious disease.
I found an improvement in the sanitary condition of the barns over that of last year.
I would recommend to all men dealing in milk, that they clean their linter before milking, as they would get a better report at the State Board of Cattle Commissioners.
Respectfully yours, CHARLES N. MOORE.
