To produce a master plan the Lincoln Planning Board needs expert assistance. It estimates $1000.00 as the minimum to secure valuable results. This amount might, if necessary, be spread over two years. The Board places these facts before the Town at this time. While it be- lieves the expenditure involved would be a wise one, it makes no specific recommendations as to whether its an- nual budget should be increased by such an amount or not.

REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH


REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH


At the meeting of the Board held on March 18, 1939, Dr. DeNormandie was elected chairman and Mr. Conant clerk for the ensuing year. Mrs. Ober was appointed nurse and the Board's agent. Mr. J. J. Kelleher was nominated inspector of slaughtering, and later his nomin- ation was confirmed by the State Board of Health. Dr. McGlinchey was reappointed milk inspector, and Dr. De- Normandie was appointed to the Nursing Committee.


One pasteurizing plant ceased to operate and one new pasteurizing plant was licensed.


Two permits to sell denatured alcohol were issued.


Eight licenses were granted for the transportation of garbage through the town.


The following piggeries were granted licenses : Manuel Silva, 500; Cornelius Shea, 400; John N. Conners, 200; Boyce Brothers, 100; John Wilson, 100; E. S. Coburn, 75; John E. McHugh, 50; Nicholas Catoni, 50. The courts still have under consideration a complaint against one piggery. The case has been heard by a master, but no decision has been made. No license has been issued to it by the Board. We are still having periodic com- plaints in regard to this piggery, but no final action can be taken until a court decision is rendered.


Licenses to sell milk were granted to seventeen farms, companies or stores. The monthly examinations of the milk throughout the year have been satisfactory in all respects.


The clinic for the inoculation of dogs against rabies was held on April 22, 1939. It was poorly attended, and this year the Board plans to send out postal cards to all dog owners notifying them of the date on which the clinic will beheld.


Again this year we have had few diseases dangerous to the public health reported to the Board: Whooping cough 4; chickenpox 8; measles 6; mumps 1; lobar pneu-

monia 1; tuberculosis 2; bacillary dysentery 2; dogbite 4. Undoubtedly there were more cases of the mild con- tagious diseases in the town than appears from the re- port, for some parents do not call a physician for the milder children's diseases. Lack of proper quarantine of these diseases might lead to a serious epidemic in the town.


The Well Child Conference has been held the third Thursday of each month throughout the year, and has been very successful. New cases, 53; old cases, 26; total attendance, 197; vaccinations, 43; toxoid inoculations, 29. Various defects and diseases have been found and the children have been sent to their family physician or to the proper hospital for treatment. The Board is again grateful to the committee under Mrs. Briggs' chairman- ship which helped so efficiently to transport the children. The Conference will continue under the able supervision of Dr. John A. V. Davies.


At the last session of the Legislature a law was passed putting under local boards of health the supervision and regulation of recreational camps, overnight cabins and trailer camps. The Board has drawn up and passed rules and regulations for their supervision. One applica- tion for a license has been filed and a public hearing will be given to the applicant.

CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS


REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS


The usual general care of the three cemeteries in Lin- coln was given during the year 1939, which included mowing, raking, and cleaning.


Fifteen headstones were straightened, raised and reset.


The building of paved gutters on the two hills in the new cemetery was accomplished during the year.


The stone wall at the Arbor Vitæ Cemetery is badly in need of repairs.


There were ten burials in the new cemetery during the year.


Five lots were sold during the past year in the new cemetery amounting to $230.00, which was deposited in the cemetery fund.


For general care in the three cemeteries we are asking for an appropriation of $800.00, $200.00 to be appro- priated from the cemetery fund.


Respectfully submitted, EDWARD F. FLINT, GEORGE E. CUNNINGHAM, SIDNEY G. MacRAE.

TOWN OF LINCOLN


REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON TRAILERS AND TRAILER CAMPS


The Committee appointed to study Trailers and Trailer Camps reports as follows :


Your Committee was appointed by the Moderator pur- suant to a vote passed at the Annual Town Meeting on March 6, 1939, and notice was given of the appointment in a letter dated May 11, 1939, addressed by the Modera- tor to the members of the Committee. Shortly after your Committee met and chose a permanent chairman.


Thereafter the Committee met frequently. Several members of the Committee inspected the trailer camp located in the Town and others studied the By-Laws of other towns in the Commonwealth and in New Hamp- shire in order to acquaint themselves with the problems involved.


Pending further work by your Committee the General Court of the Commonwealth passed an act (St. 1939 c. 416) which was approved by the Governor on August 3, 1939, and became law ninety days thereafter. This act prohibits the operation of any recreational camp, over- night camp and cabin or trailer camp without a license granted by the Board of Health of the city or town wherein such camp is located. The act also provides that the Board of Health of such city or town may adopt, and from time to time alter or amend, rules and regulations to enforce the provisions of the act.


The act of the legislature was called to the attention of the Committee which subsequetly held two joint meet- ings with the Board of Health of the Town. The Commit- tee also studied the Rules and Regulations for overnight and trailer camps recently promulgated by the Board of Health of the Town and takes this opportunity to ex- press its wholehearted approval of them. It was decided by the Committee that inasmuch as the Board of Health of the Town has full power in the premises and has al-


79


COMMITTEE ON TRAILERS


ready adopted excellent regulations and may adopt, alter and amend them with greater flexibility than the Town itself can enact By-laws, the Committee should proceed no further in its investigation.


Accordingly your Committee reports that its activities have ceased.


January 18, 1940.


Respectfully submitted,


GEORGE G. TENNEY, Chairman FREDERIC W. HIBBARD ROBERT L. De NORMANDIE EDMUND W. GILES MATTHEW H. DOHERTY

TOWN OF LINCOLN


LINCOLN


The following is a report of the work of the Middle- sex County Extension Service in the town of Lincoln during the year 1939:


Farmers have been assisted in their milk marketing problems. A strong effort was made to interest farmers to keep farm accounts. DeNormandie Farm has put up grass silage for the second successive year. Mr. Hans Van Leer and Mr. W. J. O'Sullivan are growing Ladino clover for pasture. The Storrow Farm herd is in the Dairy Herd Improvement Association. Mr. James De- Normandie is a member of the County Dairy Committee and vice-president of the Middlesex County Guernsey Club.


Considerable interest has been shown by the poultry- men in the various projects developed by the Extension Service and assistance has been rendered in disease con- trol, marketing and the keeping of records. Several poultrymen in Lincoln have been bothered with a rela- tively rare and serious poultry disease and some time has been spent helping these men.


4-H Club Work for boys and girls is now being car- ried on under the chairmanship of Mrs. Matthew H. Doherty. Mrs. Marie Murray served as a clothing club leader for fifteen girls. During the summer a canning project was carried on under the leadership of Miss Florence Reid of Wayland.
