The Treasurer's report shows the balance in the treas- ury on January 1, 1927, of $10,231.72 with special fund of $628.03. The Collector reports uncollected taxes on Janu- ary 1, 1927, of $9,089.93. This makes available for the treasury, on account of balance in the treasury and uncol- lected taxes, $19,949.68, to which should be added the ex- cess cash in the hands of the Sinking Fund Commissioners of $2,813.79, or a total of $22,763.47. Considering that there was appropriated at the last Annual Meeting $16,000 to be taken from the available money in the treasury, the
34
amount remaining in the treasury of $22,763.47 is ex- tremely satisfactory.
The business of the Town, as it has been conducted by the various officers and departments of the Town, is em- bodied in their printed reports.

REPORT OF LINCOLN PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE COMMITTEE
To the Board of Selectmen :-
It is always a pleasant task for the one who writes this report to record with appreciation the numerous favors received during the year by the nursing project. As usual we have to thank the Red Cross for continued assistance in the matter of the nurse's car, and Doherty Garage for many services rendered at a minimum of expense to the Town. Several pieces of new equipment have been do- nated, notably a pair of baby scales, which have already proved of definite value in infant welfare work. At this point, too, an opportunity is afforded to express publicly, on behalf of those of us associated with Miss Rudolf, our gratification for the manner in which she has performed her duties, particularly during the recent epidemic.
In the section of the Town Report devoted to schools will be found detailed description of the work of the nurse with the school children. The district work has shown an increase which is gratifying because it denotes an increase in understanding of what nursing service can do and an increase in willingness to make use of its benefits. The total number of district calls made during 1926 is 874, which are classified as 384 medical, 292 surgical, 179 obstet- ric and 19 child welfare. All this is in addition to school work and follow-up work, and to the work incident to dental, under-weight, and pre-school clinics, and to the 41 days spent in Sudbury.
The expenses of this department have been kept, as has always been the case, since the beginning of the nursing service in 1921, below the annual estimate. The appropri-
37
ation of $750.00, plus $400.00 from schools, plus the re- ceipts from Sudbury, have covered the nurse's salary. The income from fees has more than paid for the expenses of operating the car and for necessary supplies. The sum of $170.00 is still due from Sudbury on the 1926 account. The total amount of fees earned by the nurse during 1926 is $434.75. The expense incurred for supplies and for op- erating car during same period is $281.37. The Town Treasurer's report and the Auditor's report give the amounts which have been actually expended or received during the fiscal year.
Two features of the year's work deserve a word of ex- planation,-insurance nursing, so-called, and the taking over by the Town of the Nurse's car. The Red Cross of- fered to turn over to the Town the old car, and contribute $100.00 additional, if the Town would release them from further responsibility. This proposition was accepted by the Selectmen, a new Ford coupe was purchased, and now the Town owns the nurse's car. The insurance nursing is work done for holders of a certain class of policy in either the John Hancock or Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. This service is paid for by these companies and has earned the sum of $170.00 during the year. The Lin- coln nurse is under contract to work for these companies in the Town of Weston. This, of course, does not mean that we are doing district work in Weston.
Respectfully submitted, EDITH B. FARRAR. For the Committee.

REPORT OF THE WORK DONE BY THE MIDDLESEX COUNTY EXTENSION SERVICE IN THE TOWN OF LINCOLN, FOR THE YEAR 1926
An appropriation of $200.00 was made at the annual meeting in support of the Middlesex County Extension Service, through the County Board of Trustees for County Aid to Agriculture. The following is an account of the work done by this organization in Lincoln for the year 1926 :
In agriculture the principal work developed has been with those farmers interested in dairying and fruit. A total of seventy-three farm visits were made to those who requested individual farm service. A dairy meeting was held at which time the value of home-grown feeds was dis- cussed. An alfalfa meeting was also held where the suc- cess of this crop locally was observed, and information given on the proper methods to follow in growing the crop. Soil was tested on several farms and information given relative to the seeding of alfalfa. Six farmers are receiving monthly visits from the cow test agent for the purpose of keeping accurate milk production figures and feed costs. Exhibits were put on at the local fair, and judges furnished.
In the boys and girls 4-H club activities work was car- ried on in food, clothing, garden, and handicraft clubs. Forty-four boys and girls were enrolled under the local supervision of Miss Myrtle Eliot, Miss Marion Parker, and Mr. Robbins. Harriet Robus and Charles Lennon were
39
awarded a two-day trip to the Massachusetts Agricultural College for doing outstanding club work. An achievement club meeting was put on in the spring at which time the boys and girls exhibited the work they had done during the winter. Club members in this Town were in compe- tition with 3,960 boys and girls in Middlesex County.
Seven motion picture shows were given during the year to a total attendance of 1,059.
In addition to local meetings held, several county-wide meetings were conducted, such as the County Picnic at the Market Garden Field Station, the annual meeting of the Extension Service at Waltham, and sectional meetings of fruit growers and poultrymen. These were attended by many Lincoln people.
Respectfully submitted,
HERMAN T. WHEELER, Director.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS
To the Board of Selectmen :-
I herewith submit the following report for the year end- ing December 31, 1926:
During the month of January very little snow fell, so the men worked on the road near the Storrow farm widen- ing the curves.
In February there were two heavy snowstorms very close together, which made a lot of snow shoveling neces- sary, and kept the teams and men busy most of the time until April.
During this month the back roads were scraped and the hard surfaced roads patched.
In May and June this department put oil and tarvia on most of the roads in town, and teamed sand to cover the same.
In July work was started on the South Great Road and completed in September.
During September and October we worked on the Con- cord and Wayland road, starting near Mrs. Bunker's property.
In November we patched the roads again, cleaned out the gutters on the hills, and built about six hundred (600) feet of guard rail fence near Mr. Higginson's property.
41
I have bought two thousand (2,000) feet of snow fence, to put up where the snow drifts in most, in different parts of the Town, and what we have erected has been very satisfactory. I think it would be well to get more of this fencing, as there are places where it could be used to ad- vantage.
The amount expended for maintenance this year was ap- proximately as follows :
Hay, grain and straw
$1,260
Supplies
8,660
Repairs, shoeing, etc.
1,775
Snow work
4,325
Rent, water and light
475
Supt.'s salary, labor, etc. Total
5,700
$22,195
Amt. of credits due the Highway Dept.
6,580
Total spent for maintenance of highways $15,615
The amount spent for State, County and Town road is approximately as follows :
Labor, etc.
$4,385
Supplies
13,400
Truck
1,200
Sand and gravel
360
Coal and wood
175
Teams
2,665
$22,185
The condition of the Highway Department is about the same as last year, the property consisting of six (6) horses, four (4) sets of double harness, two (2) single harnesses, five (5) double carts, one (1) single cart, one (1) two-horse
42
wagon, one (1) oil spraying wagon, three (3) sleds, fifteen (15) horse snow plows, and one (1) truck snow plow; all in fairly good condition.
The condition of the Packard truck, which has been loaned to the Town by the Commonwealth for several years, had become so worn that it could not be depended upon unless the Town expended a very large amount of money in repairing it. It was practically useless as far as snow removal from the highways was concerned. After consultation with the Selectmen and investigation of the best make and type of truck to purchase, it was decided that it was advisable for the Town to purchase and own a White 312-ton truck. The snow plow which the Town had was easily attached to this truck. The cost to the Town was $4,800.00.
The guideboards are in good condition, Some new ones have been put up, but there are some that will have to be repainted this year.
Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM H. SHERMAN, Superintendent of Streets.

REPORT OF THE WATER COMMISSIONERS
The Water Commissioners respectfully submit the fol- lowing report :-
During the past year both pumps were thoroughly over- hauled by an expert and are now running in good order. All the woodwork on the pumping station and gate house was painted. The broken floor of the old boiler room was cemented, making a much neater storage space.
Three leaks broke out in the old cement pipe on Station Road, causing the customers some inconvenience; other- wise the pipe system has given no trouble.
An extension of 200 ft. of two-inch pipe was made beyond the Conant place in North Lincoln, and the dead end on Tower Road was connected with the main line on South Great Road by 1,650 feet of four-inch pipe.
At the beginning of the recent typhoid fever epidemic it was suggested to the Board that it was customary to fence reservoirs such as Lincoln's. The Board plans to do this, but only after the banks are put in a satisfactory condition.
The Board has paid all its routine, renewal, and exten- sion expenses from earnings, and hopes to be able to con- tinue this policy.
