The expenses previously mentioned of rebuilding the Chemi- cal and repairing the whistle, could not be foreseen, and there- fore drew from the appropriation over seven hundred dollars, which could very profitably have been used for other purposes.
The present Board have worked harmoniously together for the past five years to increase the efficiency of Plymouth's Fire De- partment. The financial support which has been voted in re- sponse to the several recommendations of the Board, and the con- fidence and encouragment which have been shown them has been fully appreciated.
The citizens of this Town ought to be sufficiently interested in this department to the extent of keeping it well equipped for prompt and efficient service, and your earnest and careful con- sideration of the recommendations herein mentioned is respect- fully requested.

The Board recommend that the sum of $13,000.00 be appro- priated for the year 1910, and $191.21 for the overdraft.
Respectfully submitted,

REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS.
During the month of January 23 pigs, 5 cows and 2 calves were slaughtered and inspected.
In February 10 pigs, 1 cow, and 1 calf were slaughtered.
In March 14 pigs were killed and examined.
In April 4 pigs were slaughtered and inspected.
In May 9 calves were slaughtered and inspected.
During the month of June 1 pig and 19 calves were slaugh- tered and inspected.
In July 10 calves and 1 pig were slaughtered and inspected.
In August 1 calf was inspected and slaughtered.
In September 2 pigs and 1 calf were inspected and slaughtered.
In October 8 pigs were inspected and slaughtered.
In November 34 pigs, 2 cows and 1 calf were slaughtered and inspected.
In December 85 pigs and 2 cows were slaughtered and in- spected.
During the past year three pigs and one cow have been con- demned as unfit for food and have been disposed of accordingly. During the summer an agent of the State Board of Health visit- ed Plymouth and examined the different places where animals were slaughtered, and suggested some improvements in the buildings, some of which have been carried out.
The first of October I started out on the annual fall inspec- tion of meat animals, and I visited 167 stables, and inspected 379 cows, 335 pigs, 60 head of young cattle, 7 bulls, 8 oxen and 20 sheep.
I found 2 cows which were diseased, which were condemned and killed.

In my last report I asked for sufficient appropriations to per- mit the purchase of a power spraying outfit. A number of ma- chines were examined, but none was found adapted to our pur- pose. Most of the efficient power sprayers are too heavy and clumsy to be used conveniently and economically on our sandy, narrow roads, while the lighter machines, of medium power, did not seem to be assembled in a way to give promise of satisfactory service for more than a year or two. For these reasons, and be- cause the district superintendent of the State gypsy moth de- partment believed that we could handle the work in 1909 with hand spray-pumps, I decided to use hand outfits in the woods, and for spraying small street trees, and to engage Messrs. E. F. and E. L. Sampson, who have a power sprayer, to do the work among the tall elms. The balances, to the credit of the above accounts, are amply sufficient to purchase a first-class power outfit, and it is my intention to secure one if any of the new machines, of moderate weight, proves to be adapted to our peculiar conditions.
Experience has demonstrated that spraying is effective against the gypsy moth, and is the cheapest and most satisfactory way to handle a colony of any size. This was well illustrated near the Fuller farm, at South Pond, where a considerable colony, which was only discovered last summer when the caterpillars were near- ly half grown, was sprayed thoroughly. This winter egg clus- ters were confined to the outskirts of the colony ; the poison ap- parently killed all the caterpillars in the sprayed area.
Scouting and the destruction of egg clusters of the gypsy moth have been pursued during the winter, and are still in progress. The work indicates that there has been a decrease in the number of nests, so-called, but that these are more widely scattered, mak- ing an increase in the number of colonies. This was to be ex- pected because new colonies are sure to appear in the infested areas, and several seasons must usually elapse before an old col- ony can be eradicated. So long as a single egg cluster is found
-100-
the colony is recorded and enumerated. Seventy-six orchard colonies disclosed but one nest each, and thirty-five such colonies, but two nests each.
On the whole, there is reason for encouragement and con- fidence that the faithful, thorough work of our superintendent, Mr. A. A. Raymond, and his associates in the field work, will keep the gypsy moth under control. Their experience enables them to improve the effectiveness of their work from year to. year and, with a good spraying outfit, still better results may be looked for.
The brown-tail moth is still in evidence by an occasional nest, generally attached to a twig of a pear, apple or other fruit tree, although found, also, on elm, white-oak and some other trees and shrubs. The increased acquaintance of our citizens with these unsightly, conspicuous nests, doubtless leads to a decrease in the number left for the town force to remove. The nests should be cut off, carefully gathered and promptly burned in a stove or furnace, before the warm days of early spring. The small cat- erpillars are torpid now, but will come out of the nests when a little warm weather comes.
The last season was unfavorable for the destruction of the elm-leaf beetle. The late development of the foliage of the elms combined with an unusual number of wet or windy days, when effective spraying could not be carried on, caused some of the work to be postponed until too late to secure the best results. Most of the street trees were sufficiently protected, but some elms on private land were defoliated. Weather conditions seem- ed to favor the beetle and the elm trees in the neighboring towns bore witness to this.
It will be necessary to spray our elm trees thoroughly during the coming season.
Our men were so busy in the spring fighting the various insect pests that the planting of trees was confined mostly to replacing
-101-
those which had died. Trimming has been done from time to time, as has been necessary or practicable.
I estimate that the town should appropriate $1,200 for the tree-warden account, and $2,300 for the gypsy moth account.

The most serious fire this year was the one near Herring Pond, which started just over the line, July 17th, and came into Plymouth, and was finally extinguished July 20th at an expense of $750, burning over a large tract of land.
Great credit is due to Deputies St. George, Barker and Ray- mond in stopping this fire at the North end of the pond, and to
-103- -
Deputies Cahoon and Haskell for the able manner in which they handled it on the Bourne line. We have had ten fires set by engines on the Middleboro railroad at a cost of $81.66.
A new wagon fully equipped has been purchased and located with Mr. E. N. Wood, who always has horses and men ready to go to any fire.
The woods have been thoroughly posted with trespass and other notices, notifying parties of the rights of the owners of wood land.
I respectfully ask for an appropriation of $1.000 for this de- partment.

Forest Warden.

The above account shows overdraft of $245.57, but the amounts due for care of lots will offset this, consequently no appropriation will be necessary to cover the deficiency.
We recommend that the sum of Eight Hundred Dollars be ap- propriated for the year 1910.
We find there is much undeveloped land not only in the outly- ing sections of the cemeteries, but we refer particularly to the
-106-
more central sections. It not only seems impossible to develop this land intelligently, but it seems impossible to keep an intelli- gent record of the lots under the existing conditions, namely- we find no survey of Oak Grove Cemetery later than 1841, and none of Vine Hills later than 1869, and in the laying out and sale of lots, these surveys have been more or less disregarded, and the lots not properly numbered. In staking off lots, wooden markers have been used, many of which have rotted and entirely disappeared, so the two old surveys we have, are worthless to work by. We want to have a new survey made of Oak Grove and Vine Hills cemeteries, not only to plot and make saleable much undeveloped land, but also to enable us to install a system where- by we can have records of lots, classify labor, and know how it is employed.
The receiving tomb is in need of repair. We have had tem- porary repairs made to allow its use this winter. But next spring it should be put in good condition. In order to do this, it will probably be necessary to take down more or less of the walls and rebuild, and the roof will require some outlay.
For these, we ask a special appropriation of One Thousand Dollars.

BOARD OF HEALTH
ANNUAL REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH OF PLYMOUTH, FOR YEAR ENDING DE- CEMBER 31, 1909.
During the past year there has been a total of one hundred and seventeen cases of contagious diseases as compared with forty-eight of the preceding year.
It was found necessary for the board to take control and fur- nish medical attendance, nursing supplies, etc., in fourteen cases of diptheria, two of scarlet fever, four of typhoid, one of tuber- culosis, one of measles, one of opthalmia.
In addition an extra expense was incurred by the sending away of two patients to a state sanatorium for tuberculosis and the necessity of providing for the proper care of five non-resi- dents, who have a legal settlement in this town.
The work of disinfecting has been continued as in the past, the expense attending the same being borne by the appropriation except where it was necessary to disinfect school property where it has been charged to that department.
At no time did any of the contagious diseases become epi- demic and in every way the year has been satisfactory to the Board. The matter of providing suitable dumps and the proper maintenance of the same seems to have been realized. The dump on Samoset street has been moved a short distance back from the street, its new site being less conspicuous and therefore less liable to prove unsightly, while at the same time being of as convenient access as when in its former location.
-110-
The dump on Obery street has been provided with suitable fencing, thus doing away with the nuisance of having the refuse material deposited there, from being blown to the road and adjacent property. The town water has been extended (via) Obery street and a hydrant installed in a convenient location for use.
The purchase of a hose and reel has been made at a cost of fifty dollars, the Board finding the same a necessity if the ac- cumulated waste at the dump was to be burned. Whenever this burning has been done Manuel Madera has been in constant supervision. 1
During the summer it was once found necessary for the Board to take charge and cause the removal of numbers of decompos- ing fish which were found to be floating near the shore at Billington Sea. The exact nature of the trouble which caused such wholesale mortality among the fish is not known.
In other cases complaint has been caused by decomposing animal matter left unburied in the open; whenever such com- plaint has been received, the Board has taken action and a prompt removal of such offensive material has been affected.
The Board of Health for the Town of Plymouth has adopted the following regulations.
Article XV. No person shall bring into or convey through said town the carcasses or parts thereof, of neat cattle or swine, without having the same so covered that they shall not be ex- posed to view.
Article XVI. The owners of all dwelling houses, constructed in said town after Jan. 1, 1910, on streets through which a town sewer is laid shall connect said house with said sewer and shall not construct or maintain on the premises a privy or out- house.
Article XVII. No person shall keep within the town limits more than two pigs or hogs without permission of Board of Health.
-111-
Article XVIII. No person shall keep and maintain a pig-sty within 150 feet of a residence without a permit from the Board of Health.
Article XIX. In all cases of contagious disease the quaran- tine shall hold in force until seven (?) days after the fumiga- tion has taken place.
Article XX. Whereas, the exposure of food stuffs to street dust, insects and animals, is liable to infect and corrupt such food stuffs, it is hereby ordered, that meat, poultry, game, fish, sea-food, dried or preserved fruits, dates, figs, cherries, grapes, berries, cut fruits, cnt melons, cracked nuts or nut meats, can- dies, confectionery or bakers products shall not be kept, sold, or offered for sale in or near an open window or doorway, outside of a building or in any street, private way or public place of the Town of Plymouth, unless so covered or screened as to be protected from dust and flies or from contact with animals. Meats or any other products as named above shall not be carried through any street, private way or public place unless properly protected or screened from dust and flies. Every person being the occupant or lessee of any room, stall, building or place where meat, poultry, game, fish, sea-food, milk, vegetables, butter, fruit, confectionery, bakers products or other articles intended for hu- man food, shall be kept, stored, sold, or offered for sale, shall maintain such room, stall, building or place and its appurte- nances in a clean and wholesome condition. Every pedler of food-stuffs from wagons or carts, in addition to the covering or screen provided for in this regulation, shall keep in his wagon or cart a suitable receptacle for the wastes of his business, such wastes to be disposed of in a manner that shall not create a nuisance.
We recommend that an appropriation of $1,269.16 be made, to meet the overdrawn account by the Board of Health of the past year.
We recommend that an appropriation of $3,000 be made to
-112-
cover the expenses of the Board of Health for the coming year.

The vote of the Town directing the Park Commissioners to pay employees at the rate of twenty-five cents per hour has been complied with but this has made it necessary to do less than the usual amount of work in order not to overdraw the appropria- tion. Planting has been confined to inexpensive seedlings.
The fire guards at Morton Park have been cleaned of dry leaves and brush and should protect the Park from fires from without. There must always be danger of fires originating in the Park through the carelessness of smokers and we ask every- one who uses the Park to take special care to guard against such an accident.
The new law relating to automobiles revoked the authority
-116-
of Park Commissioners to exclude motor cars from Public Parks and made it necessary to secure the assent of the Massachusetts Highway Commission before any new regulation of this sort could be enforced. Believing that the usefulness of Morton Park, as a pleasure ground for the general public, would be lessened if automobiles should be allowed to travel its narrow roads, your Commissioners asked the Highway Commissioners to allow them to exclude motor cars from the Park. This re- quest was granted and the necessary signs have been posted, according to law. Anyone who sees an automobile in Morton Park will confer a favor by reporting the number of the same to any police officer or to the Park Commissioners. It is our intention to enforce this regulation strictly.
Some of the old cedars which grew along Town Brook, with- in Morton Park, died, and were cut and sawed into timber. These yielded some merchantable lumber, part of which was sold and part was reserved for the use of the Town in the several Parks.
The proceeds of the lumber that was sold and of sales of oak poles and standing grass did not reach the Town Treasurer in season to be included in the account for 1909.
We ask for an appropriation of $1,000 for Parks in 1910.

The board walks needed considerable repairs and a number of sections needed to be replaced; it was also necessary to build up the gravel paths. These unusual repairs caused the over- draft. To cover this and to provide for the work at Training Green in 1910, we ask an appropriation of $200.00.
