On April 14, 15 and 16, and on June 3 and 4, a Well Child Conference was held under the auspices of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health at the request of the Board of Health. At this clinic 76 children were given careful physical examinations. From this examination it was found that many of the children had not been vaccinated against smallpox or inoculated against diphtheria, many needed dental atten- tion and some of the children needed medical attention. A superficial follow-up of the children has been made, but the Board feels that a Well Child Conference should be held by the town each month, so that defects in our children will be discovered early and appropriate advice given.

TOWN OF LINCOLN


REPORT OF THE CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS


In addition to the usual general care of the three cemeteries in Lincoln, work was done during the year 1937 as follows:


The Arbor Vitae Cemetery was mowed, raked and cleaned of undergrowth and the trees in this cemetery were trimmed and deadwood removed. Fifteen headstones were straight- ened and reset and two pillow markers were raised and reset.


In the New Cemetery the roads with one exception were scraped and oiled. One truck load of oil was used for this purpose. Fifty evergreen trees were planted, roadside trees were trimmed and deadwood removed and all underbrush in the main part of the cemetery was cut and removed. The cemetery was raked and cleaned in the spring, and all lots were mowed and raked in the fall.


The cemetery at the Town Hall was raked and cleaned of undergrowth and ten headstones were straightened and reset.


There were four burials in the New Cemetery and two in the Arbor Vitae Cemetery in 1937.


For general care in the three cemeteries during 1938, we ask for an appropriation of $600.00. In addition to this we recommend that the necessary funds be appropriated for special work in the New Cemetery as follows:


Scraping, repairing and oiling one road. Replacing iron pipe markers with cement block markers having numbers on top to identify each lot.


Respectfully submitted,


EDWARD F. FLINT, GEORGE E. CUNNINGHAM, ALFRED C. COUGHLAN.

REPORT OF TREE WARDEN


TREE WARDEN'S REPORT


Most of the work of this department this year has been against the Gypsy Moth, starting in January with a WPA Moth Project to which five men were assigned. The egg nests were treated with creosote on the roadside trees and badly infested woodlands going in from 50 to 100 feet into woodland bordering the roads. The Gypsy Moth problem is a serious one on account of the large acreage of uncared for woodlands which make an excellent breeding place for these pests.


While we can control these insects on our roadside trees and orchards by using the proper methods at the correct time, such as creosoting the nests and spraying with arsenate of lead, it is difficult to do so in our woodlands due to the relatively small amount of money the owers can afford to spend for this work. Very little help is also received from the natural enemies of the Gypsy Moth, such as the imported Calsoma Beetle and egg parasites both of which were a large factor in the fight years back. The best that can now be expected is to hold our roadside trees from stripping.


The spraying operations started in May and continued until the last of June. During this time, the trees on most of the roads were also sprayed for the Elm Leaf Beetle as well as the Gypsy Moth. Very good results were obtained. The existing conditions of the Gypsy Moth look very bad in some parts of the Town and much more spraying will need to be done next year. The expenditure this year was $1,482.39 and it is recommended that $2,000.00 be appropriated for Moth and Tree Work in 1938.


Respectfully submitted,


JOHN J. KELLIHER, Tree Warden.

REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS


REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS FOR 1937


To the Board of Selectmen:


As Inspector of Animals I submit the following report. The cattle in town have been treated with the usual tuberculin test; as a result one cow reacted. This cow was disposed of in the usual way, and the premises will be disinfected as soon as the weather permits. Two of the largest dairy men have gone out of the milk business and this reduces the number of cows considerably. I find 363 cows, 112 young cattle, 10 bulls, 16 sheep, 25 goats, and 2,913 swine, and, generally speaking they are in a comfortably healthy condition. Three people have been bitten by dogs. The dogs were quarantined and, as they showed no sign of rabies, were released at the end of fourteen days.


Respectfully submitted,


JOHN F. FARRAR, Inspector of Animals.

TOWN OF LINCOLN


REPORT OF THE WORK OF THE MIDDLESEX COUNTY SERVICE IN LINCOLN FOR THE YEAR 1937


The following is the report of the work of the Middlesex County Extension Service in the town of Lincoln for the year 1937.


Poultrymen and vegetable growers in Lincoln have taken an active interest in the work of the Extension Service this past year. Twenty-four farm visits were made to fourteen different poultrymen to help on their problems of disease control and poultry management. Additional information was sent out to thirty-one other poultrymen.


The work of the Agricultural Conservation program was ex- plained and a motion picture given on the effects of fertilizer at a meeting held during the year. There was also a mouse control meeting-demonstration in the apple orchard at the Storrow Estate. This was conducted by Walter Dykstra of the United States Biological Survey. Many soil samples were brought to the Extension Service office to be tested.


The fruit and vegetable spray service was continued with timely spray cards being sent out during the year.


The summer field meeting of the Middlesex County Bee Association was held in Lincoln.


During the winter months of the past year, a group of home- makers took the project in Food Buying. Two groups - one in South Lincoln and one in Lincoln proper - took the project on Silk and Wool Dresses. They participated in the Annual Homemaker's Day. Several home visits were made in reply to requests and Mother Service letters were sent to those on the mailing list.


A town committee on the Home Conservation Program was appointed to include the following members: Mrs. Manley Boyce, Mrs. Donald Donaldson, Mrs. Warwick Harris, Mrs. C. V. Briggs, Mrs. Clyde Ober, Mrs. Robert DeNormandie, and Mrs. E. H. Davidson.


Mrs. Matthew Doherty has served as chairman of the boys' and girls' 4-H Club work for the year.


In a contest conducted by the Lincoln Garden Club for the eradication of tent caterpillar, one local club member collected more than seven thousand clusters.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF LINCOLN LIBRARY


REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE LINCOLN LIBRARY


Your Trustees submit herewith the reports of the Treasurer and of the Librarian for the year ending December 31, 1937.


During the past year there have been on exhibition several examples of art loaned by the deCordova and Dana museum. These exhibits have been made possible through the co-opera- tion of Mr. Julian deCordova, who initiated them. They have been a welcome and instructive addition to our library.


Certain of the medals and other testimonials given to the late J. Waldo Smith and bequeathed by him to the town have also been on exhibit from time to time. The schools have contributed exhibitions of work which have been of interest to many who would not otherwise have seen them.


Ten years ago the total circulation of the library was 4,995 volumes. Last year that figure was practically doubled, the circulation being 9,776. We believe this increase is due in large measure to the efficiency and interest of our librarian. The increased circulation, however, entails much added work beyond the regular library days. We believe the Town should increase the salary of the librarian to a point at least reason- ably commensurate with the amount of work done and accord- ingly recommend that her salary be seventy dollars a month.


The exterior of the building is badly in need of pointing up, and the wall in the librarian's room should be sanded and repainted. These are extraordinary repairs which the Trus- tees feel should be done this year.


We ask for an approriation of $1,300 plus the dog-tax for the year ensuing.


Respectfully submitted,


JOHN F. FARRAR, ROLAND C. MACKENZIE, SUMNER SMITH, GEORGE G. TARBELL, C. LEE TODD.

TOWN OF LINCOLN


Petition of Edward A. Danosky for permission for the re- moval of loam from his property located off Bedford Road in the Northerly part of the Town.
