REPORT OF THE INSPECTOR OF MILK
H. J. Goodale, Town Manager,
Dear Sir;
I herewith submit my report as Inspector of Milk for the year ending Dec. 31, 1924.
The past summer I gave a great deal of time and attention to the inspection of dairies, retail stores and wagons. 70% of the dairies were in excellent condition, 20% in fair condition, 10% required two or more inspections before they were given a license to produce and sell milk.
On July 1st samples of milk were collected at one of the retail plants, as the milk was delivered from the producers. Each producer's milk was thoroughly mixed and a sample was taken from each producer, Analysis of those samples dis- closed that from twenty-one samples collected, five were below the standard (3 35 one hundreds percent fat and 12 percent solids) required by the laws of the Commonwealth. On July 21st samples of milk were collected from another retail plant as delivered from the producer. Analysis of those samples from ten producers revealed that four were below Mass. standard in fats and solids, and one sample contained added water. On Aug. 5th the inspector called at the dairy of the producer who delivered the diluted milk and collected a sample of the milk as it was delivered to the retailer. Analysis of this sample disclosed that it contained added water. That producer was summoned into court and fined $50.00 for selling watered milk. The producers delivering milk below standard were notified of the condition of their milk, and informed that they must get their milk up to standard in twenty days. This they succeeded in doing.

Analysis of samples of milk collected from the producers on Nov. 5th, and Dec. 10th, 1924, proved it to be good whole- some milk, with a much larger content of fats and solids than the standard of the state required.
There were 65 retailers licenses and 35 producers permits issued by the inspector during the past year.
I want to express my thanks to the farmers for their court- eous treatment and hearty co-operation with me while in- specting their dairies.
Respectfully submitted,
J. H. WHEELER,
Inspector of Milk.

REPORT OF THE MOTH DEPARTMENT
It gives me pleasure to submit my annual report of work accomplished by the Moth Department for the year 1924.
In order to more effectively combat the Tent Caterpillar we attempted to creosote the nests as they appeared early in the spring just at the opening of the buds. We soon found that · not enough territory could be covered in the short time before the caterpillars had attained their growth to warrant a con- tinuance of this form of combat. Therefore, two sprayers were put out on the main roads just to spray the wild cherry with arsenate of lead. The main roads in Middleboro did not show in 1924, the unsightly nests that were present in other towns; without doubt this early spraying of arsenate of lead completely controlled this tent caterpillar. During our fall work we observed only a few of the winter egg clusters, there- fore we expect to be free from this pest in 1925.
The usual spraying for the Gypsy and Brown Tail Moths with arsenate of lead was started as soon as the first oak leaves were out. This spraying of the trees and bushes along the road-sides will never completely destroy these pests, but it does control them to the extent that they do no stripping of trees, and therefore do not become a nuisance on these. public highways. The caterpillars will always be able to come to these road-side trees from the woods, where the only control measure now employed is the encouragement of the parosites and bacteria of the Wilt Disease.
During the fall and early winter more time was given to the creosoting than the year before, in some instances especially on France, Pine, Purchase, Spruce, Highland and Miller Streets and Marion Road we went into the woods on each side from 100 to 200 feet. Using the actual count of the number of egg nests creosoted during the first day of work, we conservatively

estimate that there were over 45,000 egg nests killed during the first twenty-five days of work. With 200 to 400 eggs in each nest, one can readily perceive that it would not take many years for the Town to be overrun with this pest.
During the spring creosoting on private property we found quite a few more Brown Tail nests than during the two previous years, in all cases these were found on apple and pear trees. They can be controlled on the private place as well as the Gyp- sy Moth, if the spring spraying with arsenate of lead is carried out.
Having all tools and equipment in first class condition, also a crew of experienced and capable men, we were able to do · considerable private spraying of orchards and cranberry bogs. The spray books show actual work done on 195 private jobs, an increase of 65 over last year. For this work we furnish the arsenate of lead and charge only actual cost. Other poisons and insecticides can be used if furnished by the owner. Beside - this spraying we are in a position to correctly prune orchards and do cavity work of shade trees. The department is at all times willing to give advice as to the proper care of fruit and shade trees.
