This department has during recent years received numerous requests for fire alarm extensions and service in many parts of our Town, particularly in the areas where new construction has established new residential areas. The requests have been reasonable and deserving of consideration but the limited facilities of our present underground system and central office equipment make it impossible for us to service any additional locations.
I have requested estimates from The Gamewell Com- pany relative to the installation of new underground cable and central office equipment which will permit the de- sired extensions and improvements. Our present Fire Alarm facilities are inadequate and rapidly reaching the point whereby replacement will be both necessary and imperative.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN F. ADAMS, Chief of Fire Department.

Report of the Tree Warden and Gypsy Moth Superintendent
During the year I have removed 32 trees in various sections of the town.
Brush was removed from most of the back roads.
I had the outskirts of the town sprayed by airplane. I did my regular spraying in town using 14,400 gallons of spray.
We had two cases of Dutch Elm disease in town, one was on Courtland Street on G. and U. Railroad property which they took care of and one was on Cedar Street which I took down and destroyed. I expect we will have some more this year as there are about 10 suspects.
I received my small sprayer for poison-ivy control and sprayed out 5,000 gallons of spray.
187
I wish to thank the various departments for their cooperation during the past year.
Respectfully submitted,
MATTHEW P. ANDREANO, Tree Warden and Gypsy Moth Supt.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:
Inspections for the year included 285 homes for changing of services, installation of 225 oil burners, in- stallation of 185 electric ranges.
Increased construction of new homes, buildings, and remodelling of business establishments required a greater number of inspections than ever before made by this office.

Report of the Board of Health
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Milford:
The Board of Health respectfully submits the follow- ing report for the year ending December 31, 1951:
Controlling rodents in town dumps is perhaps the most difficult task facing rodent control operators. A successful method has been worked out by an expert exterminator secured by the Board to conduct this work at the town dump so that the results to date have been highly satisfactory.
Four Anti-rabic clinics were held in various parts of the town under the supervision of Animal Inspector, Dr. O. W. Beiersdorf. 130 dogs were inoculated.
Owners of each dog inoculated received a receipt and metal dog tag.
A sanitary survey of the eating and drinking estab- lishments in Milford was made during August by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to evaluate the present restaurant sanitation program and to make recommendations for expanding and improving the program.
The survey and its recommendations have certainly elevated the standards.
The two contracts for the collection of garbage were awarded to Genevieve Geneseo for one year for $2,600.00, and to John Molinari for one year for $2,800.00.

Report of Inspector of Animals
Honorable Board of Selectmen, Milford, Mass.
Gentlemen :
I hereby submit my report for the year 1951 as Inspector of Animals for the Town of Milford.
I conducted the required annual barn and livestock inspection and found 88 milk cows, 35 heifers, 4 calves, 10 bulls, 3 steers, 11 horses, 2 goats, 8 sheep and 215 hogs to be free of any contagious infectious diseases. The premises were inspected and found to be satisfactory.
Since January 1, 1951, I have quarantined 52 dogs for biting humans. No case of rabies was discovered. Of
197
the 52 dogs quarantined, owners of two were unknown and these two animals were destroyed at the end of the necessary period of quarantine.
Respectfully submitted,
O. W. BEIERSDORF, D.V.M., Inspector of Animals
Report of the Board of Sewer Commissioners 1951
To the Citizens of Milford :
We respectfully submit herewith our report on op- eration, maintenance and construction work of the sewer- age facilities of the Town.
Sixty-five (65) particular sewers were connected to the main sewers in 1951, bringing the total number of connections to 2,272. Lateral street sewers were con- structed in Woodland Avenue for a length of 1,098 feet, bringing the total length of sewers to 29.51 miles. This work was done under contract with G. J. Lorusso Corp., low bidder. Flushing of sewers and routine maintenance was accomplished during the summer period.
Routine operation and maintenance of pumping sta- tions and equipment was accomplished. Cloroben treat- ment for odor control was continued at the Charles Street Station.
198
Plant operation has continued without special inci- dent and the comminutor and sludge bed connections have aided in operation, with little complaint from odors.
Effluent chlorinating equipment was installed dur- ing the year and operated during the summer months, to meet requirements of the State Health Department.
Repairs have been made to some parts of the walls of the trickling filters.
Sewage treated at the plant has been 439,737,000 gallons, averaging 1,200,000 gallons per day-with maxi- mum month averaging 1.46 MGD. Maximum daily flows have greatly exceeded this amount, with some resulting backflooding of the plant units.
