There are 57 licensed milk dealers, 99 dairy farms, (having more than two cows), and 74 one and two cow farms producing and distributing milk in the City of Attleboro. It is now necessary that all dairy farms be certified by the State Department of Agriculture before April 1, 1934. I have had to score each, using the State dairy score card. Of the 77 farms which I have scored 61 have been approved and 16 not approved. In cases where the farms are not approved, it will be necessary for me to rescore them before April 1, 1934, for if they are not approved by that date, they will have to discontinue milk production. I have found that in most cases where farms have not been approved, it was because of conditions which could be easily remedied.
Several new milk rooms have been erected at my request. Milk rooms are necessary to keep the milk sweet and clean during straining and cooling.
Milk producers are taking more pains than ever to strain their milk properly. The old fashioned straining cloths are disappearing in favor of the new sanitary straining pads which are used once and then discarded. Several new electric refrigerators have been installed recently by the farmers to cool their milk com- pletely. They have found that electric refrigeration is cheaper than ice and more efficient in cooling and keeping milk cold.
During the summer all of the cows which produce milk for the city were tuberculin tested by state and federal inspectors. The majority of the cattle were found to be tuberculous and were condemned. Now all of our milk is from cows which were found to be free of tuberculosis. Milk which is not from tuberculin tested cows will not be allowed to be sold in Attleboro.
It must be realized that although tuberculin testing prevents bovine tuber- culosis from being spread through milk it does not prevent human tuberculosis, typhoid, septic sore throat and the many other milk borne diseases, nothing does this except strict medical supervision of milkers and cattle as in the case of certified milk, or-pasteurization.
There are 13 pasteurizing plants in or near Attleboro which are processing milk for delivery in this city. With the passing of the new compulsory pasteuriza- tion regulation, several more plants will be in operation. There are now three plants installed but are not being operated yet, and other dealers are planning installations.
In order to control the handling of milk coming from pasteurizing plants and to aid the plant operators to produce a better product, I have spent a morning at each pasteurizing plant in Attleboro observing and correcting the technique used by the operators and taking samples from each producer's cans as they arrive at the plant and from the various parts of the process as the milk is respectively pasteurized, cooled, and bottled to determine if all parts of the plant have been sterilized thoroughly and working efficiently. All plants were found to be doing very good work in making the milk safe for consumption.

ANNUAL REPORT
It has been my policy to test each dealer's milk once a month. A sample bottle of milk is taken from each milk team while the milk is being delivered. The samples are taken into the laboratory where the milk is tested for bacteria, butter fat, and total solid content. The bacterial content is an index of the sanitary conditions under which the milk has been handled. During the warmest part of the year, the milk sold in Attleboro averages 50,000 bacteria per cubic centimeter (about 16 drops) for raw milk and 5,000 for pasteurized milk. During the winter months raw milk averages 5,000 and pasteurized 500 to 1,000. The butterfat and total solids content indicates the richness of the milk. In Massachu- setts, milk must contain at least 3.35% butterfat and 12.00% total solids. Our milks average over 4% butterfat and 12.80 total solids. Every dealer is notified within ten days how his milk tests; this procedure has not been practiced in this vicinity before but I find that the dealers appreciate this service and it tends to better the quality of the milk.
Milk produced locally is rarely over 36 hours old when delivered to the consumer, the producers are so near the city that it is possible for night's and morning's milk to be taken to the plant, pasteurized and delivered the following morning. This quick delivery to the consumer is impossible where milk comes from a great distance as is the case with large milk companies coming in from out side our city. Thus our local milk is always fresher and in many cases richer than outside milk. The, pasteurizing plants in Attleboro are examined frequently by me to insure efficient operation.
I have found that milk producers know very little about the scientific side of milk control; that is, the reason for doing certain things while handling milk in order to keep down the bacterial content and keeping the product clean. Last April the Health Officer issued the first milk letter which was sent to each pro- ducer and dealer for the purpose of educating them in the correct manner of handling milk. I have continued this practice and have issued three more milk letters, one every three months, since becoming inspector.
Many of the dealers and farmers have visited me in my laboratory and I have used these opportunities to show them how I test milk to arouse their interest in keeping close laboratory control on their own milk supply.
I am the general sanitary inspector for the Attleboro Health Department, making it necessary for me to inspect not only our milk supplies, but also other food sources such as restaurants, bakeries, food stores, soda fountains, and markets.
I have found that food handlers are usually careful to keep themselves and their places of business in a clean and neat condition. There is a tendency, however, to expose food so that contamination from customers is possible. Where ever I have found this existing I have requested that the food be kept under cover. This is especially important in restaurants and lunch carts during rush periods when it is a temptation to set desserts, rolls, and doughnuts along the counter where they are quickly available but where it is easily contaminated by those eating at the counter.
Dish washing facilities are not all that they should be in eating places Dishes should be completely washed and then rinsed in clean scalding water. It is necessary to have sufficient dishes to carry through the rush periods without washing or else a special dish washer be used to do the job thoroughly. The use of the sanitary paper drinking cup is a big improvement over the drinking glass for soda fountains.
I have investigated a great many nuisance complaints and found that while several were sincere, many were petty complaints due to neighborhood quarrels and were unnecessary. These latter complaints are discouraged as much as possible.
A special investigation has taken some of my time in the past few months and will be continued during the winter. This consists in tracing the possible contamination of the Ten Mile River from raw sewerage entering through the old

ANNUAL REPORT
municipal drain near Olive Street. So far I have found one house which is con- nected with this drain and indications show that there are other houses or possibly factories connected into it.
Ur less the public understands the necessity for various health measures and regulations which the Health Department makes, our work is difficult, and people feel that we are dealing with subjects which are beyond our jurisdiction.
We try to show why we do certain things through the medium of health education. Our milk letters to the farmers is one way of doing this. During the first eight months of 1933, weekly educational articles were published in the local newspaper explair ing why milk should be pasteurized. Other articles were issued upon diphtheria prevention. We have given lectures before church and social organizations on health topics and are glad to talk before any group that would care to have us; personal contact is our best way to sell public health to the people.
My laboratory work has consisted of testing milk and water. Several people owning wells have availed themselves of the opportunity to get the well water tested for its safety for drinking.
This Fall I have aided the Health Officer in his diphtheria campaign. My work has consisted of transporting mothers and young children from homes to the Sturdy Hospital and back on Saturday mornings, making it possible for those living at a distance to have the benefit of the toxin-antitoxin treatment.

Report of Dog Officer
Attleboro, January 2, 1934 To the Honorable Mayor and Municipal Council:
I herewith submit to you my annual report as Dog Officer for the year 1933. During the last year I have traveled 4,597 miles as Dog Officer and have occupied 865 hours in that pursuit. I have been called upon to destroy 108 dogs, owners unknown, within the city limits.
The City Clerk presented me with a list of 488 delinquent dog tax payers. I found it necessary to prosecute 16 owners who had failed to comply with the chapter relating to dogs. There are at present 1,488 dogs licensed in the city, exclusive of kennel licenses.
The appropriation for this department I have found very inadequate. I haveexpended $725.00 from January 1, 1933 to September 15, 1933 of the current year. In view of the present conditions I have agreed to serve the remainder of the year without any compensation, at a considerable loss to myself. Now in justice to myself and it seems to me the City of Attleboro I shall respectfully recommend that the sum of $200 be added to the appropriation for the year 1934 whether it is to be expended by myself or my successor.
Respectfully submitted,
PETER J. COSGROVE, Dog Officer.

ANNUAL REPORT
1
In my report last year I traced the expansion of the curriculum from colonia times to the present, showed rapid increase in pupils in Attleboro from 1900 to 1930, the corresponding increase in school expenditures, and the measures taken to reduce school costs since 1931. It is needless for me to repeat here the cur- tailments that had been made and mentioned in my last report.
Further reductions made in 1933, were as follows:
Salaries were cut 10% effective January 14, 1933. A second cut of 10% on salaries over $1000 was made effective April 24, 1933.
Two teachers of sewing retired. One position was filled by transfer; the other position was not filled.
Sessions of the evening school were omitted in the fall months.
Teachers received no allowance for illness or necessary absence. This rule was suspended in February, 1932.
As a result the expenditures for salaries in 1933 was $49,580 less than it was in 1932, a drop of 17.5%. Since 1931, there has been a total reduction in the school appropriation of $78,743, or 22%.
As a further help in reducing school costs, the amount received from the state as reimbursement for teachers' salaries in 1933 was $36,786.75 as against $30,410.40 in 1932. This means that the state contributed $6,376.35 more in 1933 than it did in 1932 toward the expenses of the schools and reduced the sum to be raised by taxation by that amount. Few people realize how much the city receives from the state for the support of schools, because the amount re- ceived is not credited directly to the schools but goes into the city treasury as reimbursement. If the receipts of the department could be credited to the school appropriation, the tax rate for schools for 1933 would be $9.23 a thousand, or 30% of the total tax rate of $30.40. This is as low as most places expect at the present time.
In connection with the matter of school costs I am presenting a series of graphs which accompany this report.

CHANGES IN TEACHERS
Very few changes in teachers have occurred during the year. Miss Minnie A. Walker retired as sewing teacher after forty-five years of service in Attleboro and three years in Seekonk, making a total of forty-eight years of teaching in Massachusetts. Miss Alice R. Walker, assistant sewing teacher also retired in June, after thirteen years of service in Attleboro. Miss Lucy H. George, of the Capron School, died very suddenly November 21, 1933. Miss George had taught in Attleboro twenty-three and a half years.
