SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
December 31, 1934.
The Board of Selectmen, Middleboro, Mass.
Gentlemen :-
The report of the Weights & Measures Department for 1934 is as follows :-
State Standards. Located at 13 Forest St. and are in ex- cellent condition considering about 12 years use. They are under the supervision of the Town Treasurer but are actually State property, and as such are inspected by the Division of Standards Representative several times yearly. The last time these weights were calibrated was in the year 1925-and should be done again this year as it is required by the Division of Standards to be done within ten years. Field Equipment. All working field equipment is owned by the Town and is replaced as necessity requires. All working equipment is in excellent condition with the exception of the large nickle weights which have not been renickled as yet. These are sadly in need of attention as mentioned in my reports of 1932 and 1933. They should be renickled at once. The large weights have been painted with alumi- num paint and have been recalibrated and are in excellent condition.
Gasoline Measures. The battery of Seraphin Gasoline Measures are in good condition except the gauge glasses. A new set of unbreakable ones have been ordered and when these are in place the cans will be as good as new. All other measures owned by the town are in good condition.
Weights and Measures in town .-
Gasoline Pumps. In a great many cases have been re- placed by meter pumps. The few remaining ones are kept
130
in case the electricity fails. They are a continuous source of annoyance as they constantly need attention.
Gasoline Meters. With the coming of the Computing Meters it has revolutionized the sale of gas. I believe that the computing pump is the latest word in pumps, as every customer can see just how much is put in his car and the amount required to pay for the same. The ordinary meter pump is also a very good way to dispense gasoline, as these too are very accurate and in my opinion the above two ways are the best ways to serve the public with gasoline so that they will get their just measure.
Viz. Gauge. The glass viz gauge is placed on each and every pump so the motorist can see for himself if the pump is functioning properly and that he is getting his measure.
Butter. Butter has been somewhat erratic and has required many reweighings. Butter packed in other States cause most trouble. It requires the constant attention of all to see that it is right.
Potatoes. Again this year potatoes coming in put up in 15 lb. sacks or bags are a source of trouble at all times and the sale of the above commodity that come put up in this way should be watched by storekeeper and customer alike. Short weight bags should be reweighed and brought up to weight before offered for sale.
Onions. Onions that come thru already packed in 10 or 15 lb. sacks should be rechecked for short weight.
Flour. Flour has been reweighed many times and as a whole has been very even. The checking of the Auto- matic scales with which this commodity is weighed does much to eliminate mistakes.
Bread. Bread is reweighed many times during the year and the marking inspected to see if they conform with the Standards. The results have been excellent the past year. All bakers are cheerfully conforming to the License Law.
7
131
Wood. Numerous loads of wood have been looked at and measured and all found to be lawful. The dealers are trying to live up to the wood laws.
Licenses. The licenses of all Peddlars coming into town are inspected and checked. All local peddlers now have plate and badge to show that they are Legally licensed. The license question is one of continuous growth and takes a lot of time to follow up.
Clinical Thermometers. Have been inspected and copies sent to the Division of Standards.
Town Scales. The town scales are still out of commis- sion; condemned by the State Dept. in 1933, but should be repaired at once to salvage what is still good. They are fast deteriorating from rust and the elements and unless steps are taken to recondition them, they will be useless. Your Sealer expects soon to have the State Test Truck to test the big coal scales and cordially invite any towns people to pay a visit to the coal yards when it is here to see it in action.
The conditions in town are excellent and each and every storekeeper is anxious and willing to co-operate in every way to make things successful.
More and more detail work is expected by the State Department.
Summary. Articles sealed 1587. Non-sealed 37. Ad- justed 100. Condemned 30. Trial reweighing 1068. Cor- rect 1054. Under 10. Over 4.
Inspections. Fibre cartons 21. Peddlers licenses 20. Milk jars 100. Food Markings 260. Bread Labels 460. Wholesale milk 30. Coal paper bags 60. Transient Ven- dors 6. Clinical Thermometers 140. Peddlers Scales 20.
132
Ice Scales 10. Junk Scales 4. Other Inspections 130. Oil Jars 200. Retests Gas Devices 75. Bread 215. Butter 375. Confectionery 59. Dry Commodities 550. Dry Goods 250. Flour 260. Fruit and Vegetables 240. Grain 95. Hay 21. Meats 61. Potatoes 231.
Numerous complaints have been received, checked and adjusted. Two complaints for peddling were issued and in each instance the peddler found guilty.
In closing permit me to thank all those who have helped make the year 1934 so successful.
LOUIS C. LITTLEJOHN,
Sealer of Weights & Measures.

REPORT OF THE MOTH DEPARTMENT
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen, Middleborough, Massachusetts.
Gentlemen:
It is my pleasure herewith, to present for your approval the report of the Moth Department for the year ending December 31, 1934.
The late summer and fall months of 1933 left an unusually heavy deposit of gypsy moth egg clusters for this depart- ment to destroy with creosote during the winter and spring months of 1934.
Because of the abnormal sub-zero temperatures which were experienced however, the state records estimate that fully twenty percent of these egg masses failed to hatch. Though this act of nature helped us considerably, we were sorry to find that the parasites and other natural enemies of this pest were likewise effected.
With the arrival of spray season the department applied some spray jobs for private orchards and property bearing shrubs and shade trees. The major part of our time how- ever, was devoted to the caring for roadsides and heavily infested woodland areas. This work was done for the pur- pose of subduing both gypsy moths and tent caterpillars.
More and more each year, it becomes apparent that our elms are suffering greatly. Not only have the recent years brought drought to these trees but they have also received lack of water due to the erection of sidewalks and hard sur- faced roads. This condition of course, weakens them and leaves them susceptible to diseases of all kinds. Thus far we have been fortunate in escaping the Dutch elm blight which has yet to reach this part of New England.
134
The elm leaf beetle is extremely disastrous in this part of Southeastern Massachusetts. We are fighting this pest by spraying the elms with an arsenical spray. We treat the elms in the center of the town in the early morning hours before being hindered by traffic, and spray the others where- ver and whenever possible.
We were greatly helped in our browntail moth control by assistance given through men furnished under the C.W.A. project.
These moth webs were located, gathered and destroyed when found throughout the town.
The satan moth and fall web worm, while found in some sections of Middleborough, were not as numerous as in other years.
Our sprayers and other forms of equipment are in good order but the department is in serious need of two trucks to replace the ones purchased in 1926 and 1928.
May I take this opportunity to thank the C.W.A. officials, the E.R.A. officials sponsoring our present moth project and all officers and citizens of Middleborough who have aided us during the past year.
Very respectfully,
GEORGE WARD STETSON Local Moth Supt.

INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS
December 31, 1934.
Board of Selectmen, Middleboro, Mass.
Gentlemen :---
I wish to submit my report as Inspector of Animals for the year 1934.
I have received from the State during the year, 45 per- mits to ship cattle into Middleboro from out of the State. 504 head of cattle have been shipped in on these permits.
There have been no cattle quarantined during the year.
One dog was quarantined, suspected of Rabies, but was later released.
During the year, 52 reactors to the T.B. test were found on fourteen premises and these premises have been inspected and found to have been properly disinfected.
The Annual inspection of all neat cattle, swine, sheep and goats, was postponed by the Division of Live Stock Disease Control for one month, but is in progress now and will be completed by January 30th. I am therefore unable to report the results of this inspection now.
All cattle in the Town, as well as the entire State, are under State and Federal test.
Respectfully submitted, LESLIE N. CLARK, Inspector of Animals.

FOREST WARDEN
We had a total of twenty fires during the year. Of these, eight were grass fires covering four acres. The other twelve were in second growth, and burned over eighty-nine acres.
We had only two fires that amounted to anything, and both were in the Meeting House Swamp. One covered three acres and the other seventy-five acres.
The last named fire was particularly difficult to handle, and cost $685.00 to extinguish, with an estimated loss of $500.00. The fire started about noon July 18th, near the only road that led into it; the rest of the area surrounding that which was burned, being swamp, with no roads leading thru it, thus preventing us from getting at the head of the fire. Our only method therefore was to work thru the burn- ed section, attacking the head fire from the rear. While this was very difficult, we did succeed in checking the fire by midnight of the day it started. The ground was so dry however, that it was necessary to keep a force of men there all the time until 2 P. M. July 21st, when we had a heavy rain, which so drenched the ground that we felt it safe to leave it.
The fact that we had no other fires of any size is due largely to the vigilance of the observer in the Fire Tower and the ready and quick response of the men and apparatus whose duty it is to answer all forest fire alarm calls. I great- ly appreciate their faithfulness and thank them for it.
H. J. GOODALE,
Forest Warden.

This department was greatly assisted in its work this year thru an allotment by the Government thru the C.W.A., in the amount of $818.60 for labor alone. This was used to remove the dead limbs and trim up the trees on several of our main streets.
The above amount, plus the small appropriation we were given to use, has enabled us to remove some of the dangerous conditions which exist, due to the fact that we have a large number of trees, particularly maple trees which have lived their natural life, many of which it is necessary to remove each year.
I wish that the town could see its way to increase its appropriation so that new trees could be set out each year to replace those which it is necessary to remove.
H. J. GOODALE,
Tree Warden.

REPORT OF THE MARIA L. H. PIERCE LUX- URY FUND.
Middleboro, Mass., January 1, 1935
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen, Middleboro, Mass.
Gentlemen :-
The Maria L. H. Peirce Luxury Fund has ben used for the benefit of the residents of the Town Infirmary during the current year. Candy and flowers at Easter, flowers at Thanksgiving, a Christmas tree with presents for each one delivered by Santa in person, at Christmas time, used the bigger part of this fund. A safe for the office was purchased and the residents are privileged to avail themselves of it for personal effects of any value to them. Four daily and two Sunday newspapers and the local Gazette are also taken for the farm.
A decided change was necessary in our policy this year as the income of the fund is materially reduced and the number of patients has been materially increased, we found it necessary to discontinue the purchase of the tobacco and to use our income in a more general manner. The tobacco is now considered a necessary expense of the institution as it is in other town infirmaries of the state.
