tion of milk from dairies for visible dirt and bacteriological standard, inspection of milk plants and stores and the taking of samples of milk at railroad stations, teams, stores, lunch rooms and hotels. I desire to call attention to the increased number of samples analyzed in the laboratory during 1915. This was made possible by the appointment of George E. Plimpton, as collector of samples, in February.


Laboratory work consists of the analysis of milk, cream, butter, ice cream and vinegar, chemically and bacteriologi- cally, with the exception of butter and vinegar (which are not examined for bacteria) ; the sterilization of all apparatus used in this work; notifying dealers of chemical, bacteriological and sanitary violations and the prosecution of court cases where advice and instruction do not accomplish the required results.


Nuisances dealt with by this department were as follows : Dirty milk containers, improper tasting of milk, milk con- taining foreign substance, improper use of milk bottles, dirty tanks, dirty chests, high temperature, unsanitary cow barn, tuberculous cattle, milk believed to be infected, oleo being sold for butter, and vinegar suspected of being adulterated.


In addition to the inspections shown in Table No. 3, there were 354 dairies inspected. and scored and 336 permits were issued to produce milk for sale in this city. Eighteen permits were refused and seven dairies were excluded.


Prosecutions in court were as follows :-


Milk below standard.


Cream below standard.


Watered milk.


Watered cream.


Selling skim milk as pure milk.


I desire to express my appreciation of the very efficient assistance rendered this department by the City Solicitor in the prosecution of these cases, as convictions were obtained in each instance.

Pasteurization.


Once more I wish to register my firm belief in the process of pasteurization.


The time has come and gone when the benefits derived from this process can be questioned ; especially in a large city like Somerville.


From a sanitary standpoint the value of pasteurization is of the greatest importance and I can best illustrate by quot- ing from a bulletin of the United States Department of Agri- culture, as I did in last year's report.


"Throughout the country there is today a rapid exten- sion of the practice of pasteurizing milk. Some of the larger cities (New York and Chicago) have passed statutes requir- ing the pasteurization of all milk except that from tuberculin- tested cattle. This growing demand for pasteurization comes from the increasing realization of the fact that milk is a medium for distributing tuberculosis, typhoid, diphtheria, scarlet fever, septic sore throat, and intestinal troubles, the past ten years having shown hundreds of serious epidemics traced to the milk supply. Moreover it has been realized also that no safeguards placed around milk at its sources can wholly remove these dangers ; for occasionally such epidemics have been traced even to certified milk which has been pro- duced under as ideal conditions as it is possible to devise. A typhoid bacillus carrier may at any time unconsciously be employed in a dairy and be the means of a typhoid epidemic


251


HEALTH DEPARTMENT.


among the patrons of the dairy. The impossibility of suf- ficiently guarding milk at its source has led health authorities to urge pasteurization as the only means of protecting the public from these considerable dangers.' This is urged the more confidently because by the American method of pas- teurizing, the milk may be rendered safe without changing its physical or chemical character, or its taste and the food value of the milk, but a higher temperature is used in Europe than on this side of the Atlantic. The American method of pas- teurization consists in heating the milk to 140 to 145 degrees F. and maintaining that temperature for half an hour. Such treatment does not affect the taste, the cream line, or the digestibility of the milk, but it does destroy all the disease germs that get into the milk and renders it safe even for use as food by the delicate infant. Public pasteurization or home' pasteurization are equally efficient if performed with care. The only perfectly safe. milk for drinking purposes is that which has been pasteurized."


Pasteurization at present is looked upon with favor by medical men, sanitarians, dairymen, and consumers, but the art has not been developed without opposition. Most of the objections to pasteurized milk have been based on theory or on experiments in which milk was pasteurized at high tem- peratures and in view of our modern knowledge of the proc- ess are of no great importance.


High temperature pasteurization of earlier days should not be confused with low temperature pasteurization of the present day.


Not until recently has the use of low temperatures en- tirely changed the views of scientists in regard to the value of pasteurization.


The fallacy of the objection to pasteurization has been shown, however, through scientific research in the past few. years and as a result the value of the process has been firmly established.


Realizing the public demand for the protection of the milk supply, the smaller dealers are endeavoring to find a means to meet this demand. About twenty per cent. of the milk used in Somerville is raw milk. If means could be found to provide a Central Pasteurizing Plant under Municipal Con- trol the safety of the citizens of Somerville from infected milk would be assured for all time and the problem of a safe milk supply solved.


The problem of pasteurization is not based simply on the question of which is preferable, raw or pasteurized milk, but rather upon the most economical and practical way of pro- ducing a safe milk supply.


In small cities, where money enough is available to pay for inspection and where the milk supply is drawn from farms


252


ANNUAL REPORTS.


within a short distance of the city, it may be possible without pasteurization to bring the supply to a point of reasonable safety.


To produce, however, the same degree of safety in the supply of a large city by inspection would involve a tremen- dous expense.


I believe that milk pasteurized and controlled by the city would involve the least possible loss in food value and flavor, also that this is a perfectly practical suggestion, and would involve the least expense to our city, of any system of in- spection and control that can be devised.


In closing I wish to remind the citizens of Somerville that the service of this department is at their disposal at all times upon any matter with which we can consistently deal.


Very respectfully, HERBERT E. BOWMAN,


Inspector of Milk and Vinegar.

REPORT OF OVERSEERS OF THE POOR.


Somerville, Mass., December 31, 1915.


To His Honor, the Mayor, and the Board of Aldermen of the City of Somerville :--


Gentlemen,-The reports of the general agent and the warden of the City Home, with tables of the work, are in- cluded in this report. The membership of the board remains the same as last year, the general agent, secretary and clerk are the same, also the warden and matron of the City Home. The Home Hospital has been a great help to us in our work this year. in fact we do not see how we could get along without it; as many chronic cases cannot be admitted to other hospitals, we have allowed many of these cases to go to our hospital, where they have been made comfortable in their last days. The inmates of the Home vary from year to year, but are increasing slowly. The farm has produced a fairly good crop and the produce has sold at fair prices- the revenue from the Home plant amounted to $5,640.50. We have had during the year about sixty Mother's Aid cases- we are aiding at present fifty-two families under this law, amounting to nearly $1,000 per month. Our relations with the state, cities and towns are pleasant and cordial. We have, however, agreed to a friendly suit with the state in one or two cases and of course expect to win. Total collections for the department have been $13,857.94; total expenditures for the department were' $56,709.63.


Respectfully submitted,


HENRY F. CURTIS, Overseers ALBERT W. EDMANDS, of the

REPORT OF THE GENERAL AGENT.


Somerville, Mass., December 31, 1915. To the Overseers of the Poor, Somerville, Mass. :-


Gentlemen,-The following is a brief report of the work of the department for 1915. The year has been a memorable one on account of so many men being out of work, especially the first three months of the year ; later there was more work and things became normal, although more aid has been re- quired than in any year of the city's history. The city gov- ernment has been very liberal and prompt in supplying the needed appropriations ; the whole amount expended for mis- cellaneous, $45,490.88, and for the City Home, $11,218.65, has been cheerfully placed at our disposal. The Mother's Aid law is now in full swing and we have over fifty families on our list. The liberal amount given these families of course has its influence on other cases and is one of the reasons for the larger expenditure. I wish to extend my sincere thanks to the members of the board for their kindly co-operation in all matters brought before them-the year has been a very pleasant one in the office as well as the Home department. His Honor, the Mayor, has been very kind and has helped us in many ways, and we certainly appreciate it.


Sincerely, C. C. FOLSOM, General Agent.
