The board of health has been most fortunate this year in having few complaints, the majority being from defective drains and neglected cesspools. Several piggeries were re- ported obnoxious and as the joint meeting of selectmen and the board of health and town solicitor failed to arrive at any decision in the matter the said board recommends that an article be inserted in the town warrant the coming year or included in by-laws.


The sanitary cart purchased after very careful and judi- cious forethought, both as to cost of vehicle and benefit to be derived from ownership of same, the board feels that they have greatly benefited the community and abated complaints of inability to cleanse vaults and cesspools at specified times


The town has been fairly free from contagious and in- fectious diseases in comparison with other towns of same population. In this we have been blessed by good fortune,


84


considering our lack of sewage disposal. It is the hope of the board of health that in the near future the towns-people will take it upon themselves to make use of the sewer. they were so eager to have built, now lying dormant.


The latter part of August the secretary of the board of health assisted an inspector of the state board in securing data of local typhoid fever cases. The inspector said that no failure of physicians or persons to report contagious or infectious diseases should be tolerated, but dealt with according to the law. On several occasions there have been protests against placarding houses for contagious diseases, but the public in general are acquainted with state and town laws especially Articles 3 and 7 and realize that such measures are taken only for public safety.


Article 3. When a physician knows that a person whom he is called to visit is infected with smallpox or any other disease dangerous to the public health, he shall immediate- ly give notice thereof to the board of health of the town, and if he refuses or neglects to give such notice, he shall forfeit for each offense not more than one hundred dollars.


Article 7. At the direction of the board a placard shall be displayed in a conspicuous place on any house in which there is a case of smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet fever, typhoid fever or other disease which in the opinion of the board may endanger the public health. No person shall remove or in any way meddle with such placard without permission from the board of health.


During the last two weeks of August, Dr. Lally held public vaccination at Plains School and Dewey Hall.


Mr. James Birmingham, inspector of sanitation, reports number of places visited by him as 200. Complaints investi- gated, 70. Houses placarded and fumigated, 133.


Inspector of Meats and Provisions James J. Fullum re- ports having inspected and stamped veal, beef and hogs killed in six local slaughter houses. Inspector Fullum, in conjunction with inspectors of surrounding towns, has forced


85


the itinerant butchers to discontinue unlawful business with promise of non prosecution.


With few exceptions the meat and fish markets, provi- sion and fruit stores and pedlars have complied with the law.


Respectfully submitted,


JOHN E. HIGGISTON, MAURICE J. QUINLAN, . F. H. LALLY, M. D., Secretary, Board of Health.

REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS.


Milford, January 21, 1908.


TO THE HONORABLE BOARD OF SELECTMEN : -


Gentlemen :- I beg leave to make my report as inspector of animals for the town of Milford for the year ending Janua- ry 21, 1908.


During the year I have quarantined nine cows under sus- picion of having tuberculosis, a contagious disease under the law, and have sent duplicate quarantines to the office of Dr. Austin Peters, Chief of Cattle Bureau.


One cow was released by order of the agent of cattle bureau, thought not affected; two cows I have quarantined this day, waiting the agent's appraisal, probably will be killed January 24, 1908. The other six, after being ap- praised, I caused to be killed and carcasses buried, or ren- dered.


April 24, I was called to 109 West street to examine a black collie dog. I thought the dog suffering with dumb rabies and at once placed him in quarantine. That night the owner feeling alarmed asked permission to kill him, and I gave him permission. He was killed and buried, and report made to cattle bureau.


May 10, I was called to examine a horse owned at 28 West street; on examination I found him affected with glan- ders and caused him to be quarantined for examination by the agent of cattle bureau, which was done by Dr. Arthur W. May, who gave me an order to kill and bury him and to have the premises properly disinfected.


July 10, I was called to see a dog owned by D. E. Carsen, Purchase street, thought to be affected with dumb rabies. I asked D. M. O'Brien, the dog officer, to go with me. On ar-


S7


rival we found the dog dead. In my judgment he died with dumb rabies.


July 23, I was called to No. 5 East Main street, to exam- ine a dog. I asked D. M. O'Brien to go with me. I found him affected with dumb rabies, and with the consent of the owner ordered D. M. O'Brien to kill and bury him.


July 29, I was called to 249 Purchase street to examine a brindle female dog, owner not known. I had D. M. O'Brien go with me. On examination I found him affected with dumb rabies and ordered him killed, and I sent the head to Dr. L. Frothingham, Harvard Medical school, for examina- tion. In due time I received a letter from Dr. Austin Peters, stating on examination they found dumb rabies.


September 10, I quarantined three dogs supposed to have been bitten by a dog that was thought to be affected with dumb rabies. One of these died that night. A few days la- ter the owner of another one thought best to have him killed, which was done. The other is still in quarantine.


October 1, I received orders from Dr. Austin Peters, chief of cattle bureau, to inspect and examine all neat cattle owned in Milford, and if found affected with any contagious disease to quarantine them and send duplicate quarantines to Dr. Austin Peters, to examine all conditions of cleanliness and water supply, and measurements of space of each cow, and make a full written report to the office of the cattle bu- reau, which work I faithfully performed.


Respectfully submitted,


E. E. COOK,.


Inspector of Animals.

One officer performs patrol duty on the street to the amount of 23 hours each week ; one officer 8 hours ; one offi- cer 47 hours; one officer 9 hours; one officer 14 hours; one officer 20 hours ; one officer 32 hours.


In conclusion, I am pleased to say once more that I de- sire especially to thank the honorable board of selectmen for the courteous treatment I have ever received at their hands ; I also wish to thank the officers of Milford for their loyal sup- port and ever-readiness to assist me in my official capacity. I feel particularly grateful to the attorneys of Milford for. the good counsel and advice they have always rendered me. I also feel the obligation I am under for all the assistance that has been rendered me by the several heads of police through- out the state and other states, and to our new and gentle-


92


manly town clerk. I want especially to thank him for the prompt and efficient service he has rendered me and the other officers the past year, and I earnestly hope that the good feeling that now prevails may continue in the future.


Respectfully submitted, HENRY C. SNELL, Chief of Police.

LIBRARIAN'S REPORT.

GENTLEMEN : I herewith tender the report of the library · for the year ending December 31, 1907, it being the 49th an- nual report of the library.

Amount received for fines was $84.72; for catalogues, $1.20. Notices sent de- linquents, 111. Books covered, 910.


The reading room showed an increase of readers, the number registered being 6,761, as compared with 6,564 in 1906, and 6,396 in 1905.


The library contained, as per last report, 15,805 volumes; added during the year, 448 volumes, making a total of 16,253 volumes.
