The overseers feel that some action should be taken by the voters to provide funds for painting the Town Home. We have deferred this matter as long as possible, but work should be done now, as the buildings will suffer if neglected longer.
Owing to the high cost of cows and labor, the overseers last year discontinued the practice of selling milk, and dis- posed of all cows except a few to provide milk for the in- mates. 1
We went through a hard year, financially, but feel our report will show the voters that we carefully conserved the money appropriated for our department.
Respectfully submitted,
MICHAEL B. SWEENEY, Chairman, FRED M. CROWELL, FRED J. COLEMAN,
Overseers of the Poor.
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
Comparatively speaking the contagious and infec- tious diseases reported in 1924, vary but little from the previous year. One case of rabies occurred, but the strict quarantine of suspicious acting canines and the muzzling order issued by the Selectmen undoubtedly prevented other cases of the dread disease. One case of sleeping sickness, (encephalitis lethargica) was re- ported in March, and one of infantile paralysis in No- vember, and fortunately no others occurred.
There were 45 cases of scarlet fever reported to the Health Dept. and undoubtedly as many more unre- ported, either through carelessness of the parents in not reporting as the statutes demand or classifying the rash as "merely stomach trouble." These unreported and unrecognized cases often lead to the more serious types of the disease, and also to the spread of the in- fection to others with whom they come in contact. The close co-operation of the school physician, Supt. of Schools, teachers and school nurse with the Board has been of untold assistance.
It is my belief that the reason that so many whoop- ing cough cases are not promptly reported is due to the condition at the onset resembling a cold or bronchitis and by the time its true type is realized much damage in the way of the spreading of the disease has occurred.
While we were fortunate in not having many cases of diphtheria even these might have been prevented had they been Schicked, and then given the toxin-anti- toxin treatment, which has been used so successfully in surrounding towns, and in the schools of Boston by Dr. Ceconi. The State Board of Health laboratory is
115
at present working on a method similar to one used in England, and especially perfected by Australian Health authorities, whereby immunization doses of a Toxoid may be used, doing away with the necessity of Schick- ing. When this is perfected it will be one of the most wonderful achievements of preventive medicine, and by its use we will be able to reduce diphtheria mortal- ity to a zero.
October 14th notice was received of a case of ty- phoid fever and within forty-eight hours two other cases in the same family. All three were removed to the hospital as the hygienic home conditions were very bad and there were five more in the family. Immedi- ately steps were taken to trace its source, by examining the farm and the help where they secured their milk, but all were negative. The mother, apparently in per- fect health, proved to be the carrier. The rest of the family were given the prophylactic vaccine and the mother carefully watched and instructed how to pro- tect her family. The Board recommended to the Sewer Board that the sewer should be extended on this street.
During July several persons were afflicted with what resembled "Flu," in fact had all the characteris- tic symptoms of "Flu malaria" and "Paratyphoid." Drs. Bigelow and Ohler of the State Dept. came out in consultation on these cases, examined blood, urine and feces and they were diagnosed as Influenza.
The Dept. of Public Welfare has already launched its ten-year program to endeavor to eradicate Pul. T. B. by discovering it in its incipiency. A motor truck has been equipped with an X-Ray and all necessary equip- ment for developing the plate after the picture is taken. There is a specialist in charge with his assistants.
By the co-operation of the School Authorities and the Health Board this travelling clinic may be avail- able for our school children, and many incipient or Hilum cases discovered. This early discovery will pre-
116
vent the adult types of the disease, and is another step in preventive medicine, and will save countless human lives.
-
The examination if properly carried out should be- gin with the teacher, for if tubercular, she is as much a source of infection as a pupil. Other defects will also be noted, such as enlarged tonsils, bronchitis, heart,. or enlarged thyroid glands. Goitre is especially pre- valent in some of our western towns, and it is noticed. in girls more especially between the ages of 12-18.

In providing for this space, the board planned to have an extra tennis court for summer time. The work was done so late in the season that the ground froze before proper surfac- ing was possible to ensure holding water. This was further complicated by underlying drains. It is hoped to complete the work in the spring of 1925 and provide the town with a safe. skating surface for winter months and additional tennis court ..

REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF WIRES.
TO THE HONORABLE BOARD OF SELECTMEN :-
I would submit the following report of the Wire Inspec- tion Department for 1924, the tenth year of the service.
The inspections of interior wiring for the year 1924 were as follows : -
Certificates issued for
107 meters in 94 finished buildings,
53 meters in 39 new buildings,
21 new buildings rough wired and not completed,. 32 changes and additions to existing installations.
The actual number of visits of inspection would average nearly two per installation, which indicates the volume of work. A large number of inspections and conferences, both personally and by telephone, which were of an advisory na- ture, were quite an important part of the business of the office.
It will be noted that 59 new or reconstructed buildings were wired during the year, showing a better condition in building construction than has existed since the beginning of the World War.
Two rather extensive installations in factories have been completed and two others are in process of construction.
Some important changes in the "National Electrical Code" have accomplished further development and improvement in construction standards, and will add to the safety of appara- tus, both from fire and personal safety standpoint.
There has been a steady and rapid growth in the business of the Milford Electric Light & Power Co. and the New En- gland Telephone and Telegraph Co, calling for several exten- sions of lines and increase of capacity of equipment.
A large number of replacements of poles have been made
*
129
and the lines are at present in very good condition. . The poli- cy of joint ownership of poles by the three public service cor- porations is being extended with a great improvement in ap- pearance and safety of many streets.
Respectfully submitted, FRED M. DANIELS, Inspector of Wires.
REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS.
HON. BOARD OF SELECTMEN :
Gentlemen :- In submitting my annual report as Inspec- tor of Animals I wish to state that I have examined some 500 head of cattle and swine, and found them, in general, in good condition and free from contagious diseases. During the year I have received from the Department of Animal Industry, communications notifying me of general and national out- breaks of various types of infectious and contagious diseases, but locally we have been free of all.
We were unfortunate in having an outbreak of rabies among our dogs, in which three positive cases resulted after the first of September. There were many more cases report- ed, but either not positive or were destroyed without exami- nation. But one case of a child being bitten by a rabid ani- mal and that a positive case, shows that the quarantine estab- lished and kept on 90 days was an effective means of stopping a serious outbreak, both to human beings and domestic ani- mals
It is evident that the best method of prevention from further outbreaks of this kind is for each owner of dogs to pre- vent their animals from getting the roaming habit and stray- ing away, so as not to come in contact with animals who might develop this disease and transmit it to their dog.
Respectfully, DR. B. F. HARTMAN,
Inspector of Animals.
REPORT OF TOWN SOLICITOR.
January 16, 1925.
TO THE VOTERS OF THE TOWN OF MILFORD :--
General matters referred to this department by other di- visions of town government have been many and varied dur- ing the past year.
On several occasions the police department has required my assistance in the handling of liquor matters, and also in one serious assault case in which dangerous weapons were used.
A small claim for damages arising from the construction of Cedar street has been settled, and the same is true of the action of John Gubana, which has been pending for a consid- erable time.
Success has been had in making collection of some moneys due the town, and there has been recovery, in whole or in part, for assistance furnished by the Overseers of the Poor and Board of Health in cases where it has been established that the recipient has been able to pay.
No new actions have been brought against the town.
I sincerely thank all boards and officials for the aid, cour- tesy and consideration extended to this department.
Respectfully submitted,
CHESTER F. WILLIAMS,
Town Solicitor.
