We must erect some kind of shelter, in the form of a shed, to place under cover our farming tools and save them from the weather. We have wagons and tools that are of too much value to be left out of doors to rust and rot out. The cost will be saved in the saving of our tools, etc. Our heating plant must be renovated this year. The present heater is too small and the extra
125
ANNUAL REPORT
cost of fuel to run it would in a few years' time pay the expense of changing. For this job we expect to have to ask for an extra appropria- tion of ($500.00) five hundred dollars. For our regular appropriation we ask for the same amount as last year ($8,000) eight thousand dollars, and ($500) five hundred dollars for medical attendance. We are pleased to be able to return to the treasury a balance of ($124.29) one hundred, twenty-four dollars and twenty-nine cents.
This has not been accomplished without much hard work. The Board has had the advantage of united effort, a constant watching out, and no small credit is due to the careful attention of our visitor, Mr. Gustin. He has much responsibility in his branch of the work and he has done that work well, and we hope he may be returned to his place on the Board. Our Superin- tendent, Mr. Hager, and wife, at the "Town Home" (as he calls it), continue in their well doing, and did well their part in the care of the inmates, many of whom have been sick and needed good care. The Farm also shows intelligent handling and we all have reason to feel well satisfied in the advances made during the past five years.
There are probably few Alms Houses conducted on. such liberal lines as is ours, but believing that the citi- zens of Attleborough are unwilling to stand for anything but a reasonable and humane policy, as do the Overseers themselves, we care for and feed well those who of ne- cessity are placed under our care.

ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
BOARD OF HEALTH
OF THE
TOWN OF ATTLEBOROUGH
For the year ending December 31, 1908
Annual Report of the Board of Health
To the Citizens of Attleboro :
In accordance with the public statutes, the Board of Health hereby submits its report for the year 1908.
A peculiar state of affairs has existed during the year, consisting of a lack of correspondence between the num- ber of deaths and the number of contagious diseases. It has been several years since the number of deaths has been as few as 1908; 166 for this year as compared with 198 in 1907 and 172 in 1906. The greatest number of deaths was due to heart disease, 30 in number ; apoplexy claimed 15; 10 each were due to pneumonia, tuberculosis and nephritis, while the number of deaths due to con- tagious diseases has been but 4, I to diphtheria and 3 to influenza.
There has been a geat increase in the number of con- tagious diseases reported over that of preceding years. This has been partly due to the physicians being more careful in reporting these diseases and to the fact that other diseases have been added to the list to be reported.
Last year there were 43 cases as against 134 of the year before. This year there were 158 cases : measles 72, scarlet fever 40, diphtheria 4, typhoid fever 14, tubercu- losis 25, meningitis 4, chicken pox I.
From this it will be seen that the increase has been in measles, scarlet fever, tuberculosis and typhoid fever.
Why typhoid fever should have increased is probem- atical, as each case has been investigated and no valid
135
ANNUAL REPORT
cause could be ascertained.
There have been 40 cases of scarlet fever; each has been mild in character, in fact so mild in some cases as to make the diagnosis very doubtful; but the Board has considered it best to be on the safe side and has taken every precaution in each case, quarantining the house and fumigating after recovery.
In the early part of the year Dr. Hewitt was appoint- ed as special member of the Board to investigate and in- struct every case of tuberculosis reported to the Board. The following report is extremely instructive and im- portant :
THE TUBERCULOSIS SITUATION IN ATTLEBOROUGH
A Supplement to the Annual Report of the Board of Health
W. O. HEWITT
The Board of Health would like every citizen of the town to be interested in the subject of the prevention of tuberculosis. Attleboro has its quota of consumptive cases, and our death rate from this disease must increase as our population grows if proper measures are not employed for its control. It has been demonstrated in the last few years that the prevalence of this affection can be greatly influenced by a co-ordination of efforts of a public and private nature. The Board of Health is trying in a systematic way to control this disease in our community ; whether its efforts will succeed or not, will depend largely on the support received from the public. The Board must have an accurate knowledge of the number of individuals affected, and as consump- tion is essentially a house disease we must know where
·
136
ANNUAL REPORT
the cases are, and in the event of removal it is necessary that the Board be informed, that disinfection may be carried out. The Board has now a system of registra- tion of cases of consumption, and intends to visit every case reported, and furnishes free sputum cups and liter- ature for the instruction of the patient. While a record is kept of every case, it is those among the poor espe- cially that we are anxious to help. The public can be of much assistance by informing the Board of needy cases of consumption. The law against promiscuous spitting in public places, if enforced to the letter, will help in the control of the disease. We trust that an anti- tuberculosis society will be formed during the coming year ; such an association would be of inestimable value to the town from a health standpoint, and might in- clude in its scope of usefulness the duties of a district nursing association. Many towns in the state already have societies for the prevention of consumption ; let us hope the citizens of Attleboro will rise to this occasion and help in observing preventive measures to keep up our standard of a healthful and progressive community.
During the year twenty-five cases of consumption were reported to the local Board, and three others died whose cases were not reported; there were ten deaths from tuberculosis in Attleboro in 1908. Twelve of the twenty-five cases went to institutions for special care, or removed from town; of these two died in another town, and cannot be properly classified in our death rate.
To estimate the number of persons in the town who are today afflicted with consumption we may with author- ity multiply the number of deaths by ten. We may say then that we have at present in Attleboro about one hun- dred cases of consumption ! One hundred cases of a cur- able and preventable disease! Do these facts not dem- onstrate that we need to give some thought to this sub-
137
ANNUAL REPORT
ject that we may put an end to such ravages and con- quer this enemy that is always in our midst?
WILLIAM O. HEWITT. Attleboro, Jan. 1, 1909.
There have been the usual number of nuisances com- plained of and in each case the Board has made a thor- ough investigation and have done their best to rectify them, but the laws relating to nuisances are so vague that in some cases the Board was not able to accomplish as much as they desired.
The most important complaint was one that a ditch running between Emory and Park streets was a nuis- ance and a menace to public health. This was signed by Calvin B. Goff, Onie Bowman, and Ellis M. Dean, residents of Emory Street.
For several years this ditch and the premises adjoin- ing has been an eye sore to the Board, consequently the following resolution was adopted and sent to the abut- tors: In accordance with the statutes relating thereto the abuttors on the above ditch be notified to meet the Board of Health at the Town Clerk's office, Jan. 31, 1908, to take measures to abate the nuisance complained of. On Jan. 31, 1908, a joint meeting of the abut- tors and the Board of Health was called to order by the Chairman. All the abuttors (with the exception of Mr. C. Tappan and Mrs. Ellen Winsor) and all of the members of the Board were present. After discussing the matter for over an hour and no decision arrived at the meeting adjourned. The chairman of the Board notified the abuttors that they would be no- tified as to the decision of the Board as to the manner in which the nuisance should be abated.
At a special meeting of the Board, Mr. H. F. Conant who was present at the joint meeting was instructed to
1
138
ANNUAL REPORT
investigate the premises and report in writing as to the best manner in which to abate the nuisance. July I, 1908, the following letter was received from Mr. Conant :
Attleboro, Mass., July 1, 1908.
To the Board of Health of the Town of Attleborough, Mass. :
Gentlemen :- In accordance with your request I have examined the location between Park and Emory streets, west of the Thacher Brook Drain, from which com- plaints have been made to your Board.
There is at present an open drain through this location which is connected with the Thacher Brook Drain by a pipe across Brook street. This drain is very shallow and collects the overflow from cesspools, making the soil rich and causing a rank growth of vegetation which re- tards the flow almost to stagnation. The odor from this drain is very objectionable, and the cellars in this locality are damp and have standing water in them at certain times in the year.
I find, after making careful surveys and levels and digging test holes, that the source of trouble comes from the ground water which is very near the surface, except during the dry season. The test holes not only proved the ground water level, but also showed the nature of the soil. After excavating through a black rich soil a depth on the average of about fifteen inches, I found a light colored sand and gravel.
The ground water being so near the top of the cess- pools causes them to overflow when in use, and when pumped out, to rapidly fill again.
We have absolute proof that the Thacher Brook Drain lowers the ground water for a considerable dis- tance on either side, and there is no doubt in my mind
139
ANNUAL REPORT
that an open joint pipe drain, laid according to plan here- with submitted, would lower the ground water between Park and Emory streets the entire length of the loca- tion. Now, if this ground water is lowered to the grade of the proposed pipe drain, it will be below the bottom of any cesspool in this locality, and will give them a chance to act properly. Being from three to four feet below the lowest cellar bottom, it will entirely do away with damp cellars. I have estimated the cost of in- stalling this drain at eight hundred dollars.
As a system of sewers is contemplated in the near fu- ture, it might seem unnecessary to install a drain at the present time; but as the sewers will undoubtedly be built for a separate system, they will in no way lower the ground water, and I believe this section of the town will never be a healthy place to live until a system of drains is installed.
I, therefore, recommend that an open joint pipe drain be laid from Thacher Brook Drain westerly between Park and Emory streets, as shown on plan presented herewith.
Respectfully submitted, HERBERT F. CONANT.
After viewing the premises as a board and considering the above letter, on the 3Ist of July the Board adopted the following resolution :
That the land between Park and Emory streets, west of Thacher Brook, between Morey and Brook streets, be condemned as wet, rotten and spongy land and that the Board take steps to abate the same by building a pipe-lined drain in accordance with the statutes relating thereto. It was also voted that the abuttors be notified of the intention of the Board to abate the above nuisance and of the amount of assessment each would be assessed.
140
ANNUAL REPORT
The secretary notified each abuttor in the manner pre- scribed by law and no protest has been made at any time by any abuttor to the action of the Board.
At a special meeting of the Board it was voted that the contract to construct the drain to abate the nuisance existing upon the land between Emory and Park streets in this town shall be awarded to John Eden for the sum of seven hundred and fifty dollars, said contract to be upon the terms and specifications drawn by H. F. Conant, C. E., and approved by the Board. It was voted that notices be sent to the abuttors and in the manner required by law for the abatement of said nuisances. Also that the parties benefited thereby shall pay seven hundred and fifty dollars of the expense of construction of said drain, and that the Town of Attleborough shall pay all the expense of keeping said drain and catch basins clean, and the persons benefitted thereby shall pay all the expense for all other repairs to said drain in the same proportion as the cost of con- struction is apportioned.
On October 28, 1908, at a meeting of the Board of Health, the secretary reported that the abatement of the nuisance caused by the ditch between Emory and Park streets had been accomplished by the building of a pipe lined drain, acording to the specifications approved by the Board of Health, and that the said drain had been built and to the satisfaction of the engineer, Mr. H. F. Conant.
The secretary was instructed to inform the Town Clerk that such was in accordance with statutes.
In order that our milk supply should be as pure as possible the Inspector of Milk was instructed not to give a milk license to any person unless recommended by the Board of Health. Each applicant was obliged to fill out a blank stating his or her name, residence, location of dairy, location of sales room, if milk was bought, from
141
ANNUAL REPORT
whom, if sold to any one, to whom, manner of sale and number of cows kept.
The Board divided the list of milkmen whose premises had been condemned by the State Board of Health among themselves, and every place was inspected and none were granted a license until they had fulfilled the requirements of both Boards.
During the year the Board adopted a code of by-laws relating to the sale of milk which, if adopted by the town, will tend to essentially increase its purity.
A petition was received from the milkmen asking the Board to prohibit the use of milk bottles. After con- sulting other Boards and the State Inspector of Health it was not considered advisable to do so at present.
Our garbage system is not satisfactory at present owing to the fact that the collectors are not as regular in their collections as they should be, and to the fact that they steal garbage from one another.
This can only be remedied by putting the collection of garbage out at contract to one or more persons, making them personally responsible, but as the law now stands this is impossible.
The attention of the town has been called to the neces- sity of one or more public urinals ; this want is still an important one, and one that is the cause of at least two nuisances that would not be in existence if those wants were supplied. As it is these nuisances must be over- looked, no matter how foul the odors which may emanate from them, for there must be some place for humanity to relieve itself.
At a meeting held March IIth, it was voted that the selectmen be requested to insert the following article in the warrant for next town meeting :
To see if the Town will vote to adopt a system of sew- erage for the town or take any action relating thereto.
142
ANNUAL REPORT
The Board is pleased to be able to state that the Town voted to take the proper steps to install a system of sewerage.
A recent law passed by the General Court makes it obligatory upon the Board of Health to support and furnish necessary attendance upon all persons suffering from contagious disease who are unable to support themselves. On account of this law the Board has been obliged to approve bills for attendance upon citizens of the town suffering from such diseases, amounting to $206.29. On account of the above law it is only a ques- tion of time when the town will be obliged to build a hospital for contagious diseases, so that our citizens dwelling in other towns can be attended here, as the expense of attendance upon them in other towns will be too great, and at the same time all tubercular patients could receive the attention they deserve.
