REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS
To the Board of Selectmen :-
I herewith submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1929:
The usual work has been done such as snow work, sand- ing the roads in Winter, putting up snow fence, etc. Early in the Spring we filled up the ruts and scraped the back roads, patched the hard surfaced roads, we also built a face wall on two sides of the new part of the Cemetery, and dug off some bad places on the Lexington Road. We put in three new culverts where the water was held back by the roads, and blasted out some bad ledges and rocks on the Trapelo and Dr. Herman Roads. We built about one- fourth of a mile of gravel road twenty feet wide and put in four hundred and fifty feet of side drain near the Con- cord line on the Vaginia Road.
We scarified, scraped and rolled the Sandy Pond and Trapelo Roads, thereby making them smoother and much better to ride over. I think it would be a good thing to do some more of the roads the same way this year.
We covered most of the roads with tarvia and oil and covered them with sand.
We also graded and fixed with bituminous material four crossings for the B. & M. R. R.
The Highway Department is about the same as last year, both trucks are in good running condition at the pres- ent time.
45
The guide boards generally are in good condition but where necessary, I have had new ones painted and put in place.
The amount available for road work was:

REPORT OF LINCOLN PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE COMMITTEE
The Board of Selectmen:
This committee wishes, first of all, to express its gratitude for the new car which has been purchased for the nurse's use. It is a source of considerable satisfaction to the Com- mittee that the Town was willing to assume this expense.
With the routine of the nursing service the towns- people are by this time so familiar that it seems unneces- sary to describe it again. The only change in the year past is the loss of insurance nursing in Weston. That town now employs a full-time public health nurse who, of caurse, attends to all the Weston work. No other change is foreseen at this writing. The appropriation requested by the Board of Health includes the amount needed for the ensuing year.
The case summary for 1929 is as follows: District calls, 553, divided into 268 medical, 200 surgical, 31 child wel- fare, and 54 mother and baby.
Respectfully submitted,
EDITH B. FARRAR, R. D. DONALDSON, DONALD MACOMBER.

TREE WARDEN'S REPORT
The Tree Warden submits to the Town a brief report for the year ending December 31, 1929:
The work of this department has been continued as in former years, removing dead trees, dead limbs and limbs obstructing the highways, and also the cutting of brush and thinning on the roadsides on several of the roads was done this year. This work we find very necessary to the traveler as the roads are narrow.
The scarcity of the Elm Leaf Beetle has been quite noticeable during the past several years; however, the punctured leaves on elm trees in one or two places indicate their presence again. Spraying with arsenate of lead, as soon as there is foliage enough to hold the poison on the trees, is the proper way to control this insect.
