DEALERS IN BREAD.
The law in regard to the weight of bread was so amended by the General Court of 1908 that the different sealers of the Commonwealth are made the executive officers to see that the law thereto is complied with. This has been done, and all dealers of bread in Middleboro are now complying with the law.

FOR PEIRCE TRUSTEES.
This year we have built over two miles of macadam on Taunton.St. which does not show in this account, only so far as Town horses' credit. Besides building this nice avenue to Lakeville line the Trustees have furnished nearly the whole Highway appropriation, saving to the tax payer over $1.50 per M on his tax rate. Many will criticise, as is expected, but I find that those that criticise most least understand the situation. I heard a prominent man say who rides a great deal in this and other towns that we are fast becoming the banner town for good roads, and I would say right here that we may thank the Founders of the Peirce Estate and the courtesy of the Trustees in deflecting part of their revenue to our Highways.
We yet have many poor roads. A town with so many miles of roads where material for repairs is almost impossible to get, still has a serious problem confronting it, but with the strides made in the last few years we hope that soon all will be made comfortable.
STATE HIGHWAY.
We have built this year about a mile of State Highway on Murdock St., making nearly a continuous stretch of macadam from Bridgewater line to Rochester line, a distance of about fourteen miles.
TOWN MACADAM.
We have built a piece on Everett St. from Arch to Frank
39
Sts. and on Cambridge from line of Maxim's factory lot to Clara St., completing Cambridge St. as far as laid out. . Thanks to the assistants for interest shown in their several departments.

TREE WARDEN'S REPORT. From January 1, 1908, to January 1, 1909.
My work in spraying elm trees for the Elm Leaf Beetle was not as satisfactory as that of previous years owing to the large territory we had to cover. Spraying a few trees in different places and not taking all is a poor policy and ought not to be done.
However I did at the time the very best I could do with the small amount of money.
We sprayed 606 trees, besides other work that had to be done.

REPORT OF THE INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS.
MIDDLEBORO, MASS., Dec. 19, 1908.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen of the town of Middleboro :-
I have this day finished my yearly inspection of cattle, goats, hogs, etc. in the town of Middleboro and find them all in a good and very healthy condition, not finding any conta- gious diseases whatever. The farmers' stock and sanitary conditions are very much improved from former inspections of the past three years.
Yours respectfully, A. S. TALLMAN, V. S.
Inspector of Animals.

The Amount of Orders drawn $10,075 22 during the past year includes $1,096 20 of 1907 bills which came in during the year of which $121 75 is chargeable to the Farm Acct. We have a balance on hand Jan. 1st, 1909 of $20.86 nearly eleven hundred dollars of last years bills have been received thus far since closing the books for the year.
It may be noticed the Expense for the year is quite large owing to our being obliged to install an additional heater with some alterations in the old piping and one or two extra radiators in the Alms House, it being impossible to comfort- ably heat the building with the one Heater without keeping a man in the fire room most of the time day and night continu- ally shovelling coal in very cold weather. We believe .now with the present arrangement of heating, there will be no further trouble in keeping the building comfortably warm in any kind of winter weather.

During the early part of the past year the Board of Over- seers who were serving the interests of the Town faithfully and to the best of their ability, was quite severely criticized by those, who probably did not realize the extent of their work and the time which they spend necessary to comply with state laws and determining of settlements etc. which often result in a great saving to the Town: which resulted in the losing of one member of the Board, whose experience was a severe loss to the Town and greatly felt by the remaining members of the Board, also the losing of one very efficient Warden and Matron, Mr. and Mrs. Nickerson, who after four- teen years of service had given general satisfaction.
The Board now found themselves confronted with the diffi- cult problem of engaging a Warden and Matron in three days time who would prove themselves competent in every way to manage the farm and its inmates. They feel that they were particularly fortunate in their first choice of Mr. and Mrs. David Pushee, who having served in a similar capacity for a number of years, came with recommendations exceptionally
good and thus far they have had no occasion to regret their choice, Mr. Pushee being an exceptionally good farmer and both he and his wife very kind to those in their care. There are people always ready to criticize and find fault, to those and all others we would extend a cordial invitation to visit your Town Farm and see for yourselves. Mr. and Mrs. Pushee are very glad to show our Townspeople over the Farm and the new Home at any time.
The Board also feel that they, as well as the Town are for- tunate in having Mr. E. F. Witham to assist them in their work by his taking a place made vacant by the resignation of Mr. A. M. Wood, whose retirement from the position held by him so many years was greatly regretted. We would like to say right here that we do not believe our Townspeople in general, care to have their Officers assume the responsibility and work for little or nothing. Although there are probably some who would be willing they should, it is a noticeable fact that those who are willing others should labor for honor alone, want both honor and pecuniary compensation and a
45
good deal of it. By a vote of last year, we are to be some- what handicapped the ensuing year in having a very small salary reduced nearly one half, although shall not let that stand in the way of service in the interest of the Town, pre- ferring to receive pay in the consciousness of knowing that we are faithful to the trust reposed in us.
Respectfully submitted,
ยท CHARLES W. KINGMAN, CHARLES M. THATCHER, EDWIN F. WITHAM.
Overseers of the Poor.

REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH.
I herewith submit my report for the year ending December 31, 1908.
Following is a classified list of complaints received by the Board :
Rubbish 42
Overflowing cesspools 55
Defective drains 28
Unclean premises
18
Unclean cellars
14
Hog pens
11
Offensive privies
40
GUTTERS.
There has been no improvement in the care of gutters. The last year has been the worst year in this respect since I have been on the Board of Health. This, however, is no fault of the Supt. of Streets. The Town voted once that the Supt.of Streets should give his time to the streets and highways of this Town. Today he works for the State, the County and the Peirce Trustees, and if there is any time left he works for the Town. It would be well to go back and enforce that old vote. Were I Supt. of Streets and should get up in the morning and know that before night I should be called in three or four different directions to view new roads and the rest of the time here and there on the highways I should strike up that old hymn, "O' That I Had The Wings of a Dove".
BAKERIES.
Bakeries have been examined as required by law and found in a neat and clean condition.
THE PUBLIC DUMP.
The public dump, as I said one year ago, is still a bill of expense as the people dump everywhere except where they are ordered to.
47
SWILL.
Our swill remains the same as it was last year, in a chaotic state.
MILK.
Our milk has been inspected several times during the year and we say today that our milk is up to the standard required by law and neat and clean, that we have young men and new men in the business and in the case of scarlet fever we proved the fact that while it has been quite prevalent it has not come from the milk.
SPITTING.
There has been quite an improvement in the past year in the matter of spitting. I have had one young man in Court and made a lasting impression on the rest.
INSPECTION OF DRESSED BEEF.
During the year past I have examined 684 hogs and 52 beeves and condemned 8 cases.
HENS.
The keeping of hens in this village is still a nuisance. The Board of Health, a year ago, passed a law that no hens should be kept in the limits of this village except on the owners' premises and that no hen pens should be within ten feet of the street. We have wrestled the entire year with the subject and have endeavored to enforce it with moral suasion, but with no result. Had we employed a man all the time it could not be done. The coming season we shall resort to the law, and the people, if there is any law in the Commonwealth, will keep their hens at home.
PLUMBING.
We have done considerable new plumbing besides a large amount of repairing. The people that are not on the line of the sewer are more willing to take care of their houses and tenements than the people on the line of the sewer, and this Town should vote that all owners of property on the line of the sewer shall enter that sewer. We have a large amount of money buried up in the sewer and yet people do not use it as they said they should.

CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
We have had the last year 69 cases of contagious diseases; 45 cases of scarlet fever, 16 cases of tuberculosis, 3 cases of diph- theria, 5 cases of typhoid fever.
Our scarlet fever started with a school teacher who came to keep school in Nemasket. She undoubtedly brought the fever with her. The school was closed for two weeks. There was only one little boy who took the disease and he was a new scholar who was lonesome and the teacher had kept near her. We have had quite an epidemic which has made its appear- ance from time to time in different localities in the Town. We, as a Board, have consulted with the State Board and have come to the conclusion that it was caused by the dryness of the Fall and the autos which have ground our streets into worse than fine flour, and as we are told that microbes exist in everything they were blown about in that fine dust. We think if our watering carts had run during the month of October or rather during the dry spell in the Fall it would have been a source of comfort to the people and of less danger to the public. The expenses of scarlet fever have been nearly $300.
