REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH.
TO THE CITIZENS OF THE TOWN OF WAKEFIELD :-
The Board of Health herewith present their report for the fiscal year ending February 1, 1897.
Cases of contagious diseases were reported to the Board as follows :
Scarlet Fever,
.
6
Typhoid “
17
Diphtheria,
28
Measles, .
· 652
Total,
703
Making the total number of cases reported to the Board seven hundred and three (703), as against 41 last year.
There has been an unusual amount of sickness the past year en- tailing a larger expense.
The Board at its meeting last spring took the matter of the Centre drain under consideration and decided to have it cleaned out and the work was done under the supervision of said Board.
The number of applications for boarding state children investi- gated has been ten ; cesspools located, six ; dogs buried, two; cats buried, two; nuisances abated, fifteen. Regulations in regard to plumbing have been enforced.
We would again call the attention of the town to some means of sewerage ; as the town grows and population increases the liability of contagious diseases increases in proportion to its growth. We
64
would call attention to the number of cases of scarlet fever and diphtheria that have occurred in the vicinity of Pleasant street, making it obvious that it is necessary to adopt some means of drainage other than the present.
We would also call the attention of the town to the condition of the Centre pond, and recommend that the town take some action in regard to it.
This we respectfully submit to the town.

REPORT OF FISH COMMITTEE.
SAMUEL PARKER, WILL H. WILEY,
J. C. HARTSHORNE.
Lawyer: "What's your gross income ?"
Witness: " I have no gross income."
Lawyer: " What ! no income at all ?"
Witness: "No gross income. ' I have a net income. I'm in the fishing business."
The net result of fishing in the lakes and streams of Wakefield dur- ing the season of 1896, as gathered from the experience and obser- vation of your committee, and from the reports of other reliable witnesses, has been extremely satisfactory as regards both number and weight of fish. During the months of April, May and June, nearly every fisherman had good luck and large, heavy strings of perch and pickerel were brought to shore, and many fine bass besides. During the hot months of July and August, the water becomes very warm through its entire depth, the fish themselves showing in their flesh a high degree of heat as evidenced to the touch when held in the hand. It is no wonder then, that the fish should "seek some boundless contiguity of shade " till early morn or late at night, or that the general inquiry should be like that of the little boy who was caught by the parson fishing Sunday :
Parson: " I'm sorry to find you here."
Little Boy: "Can you tell me where they bite better ?"
More boats were in use and more people went sailing, rowing and and fishing last year than ever before. One has only to visit Wiley's boat-house any pleasant day or evening during the season to be con- vinced of the great benefit and delight afforded to the people of Wakefield and of a wide circle of towns by the solid comforts and attractions of Lake Quannapowitt.

" He is the freeman whom the truth makes free ; And all are slaves beside. There's not a chain That hellish foes, confederate for his harm, Can wind around him, but he casts it off With as much ease as Samson his green withes. He looks abroad into the varied field Of Nature, and though poor, perhaps, compared With those whose mansions glitter in his sight, Calls the delightful scenery all his own. His are the mountains, and the valleys his, And the resplendent lakes his to enjoy With a propriety that none can feel, But who, with final confidence inspired,
Can lift to heaven an unpresumptuous eye,
And smiling say, 'My father made them all.'
Are they not his by a peculiar right, And by an emphasis of interest his, Whose eye they fill with tears of holy joy,
Whose heart with praise, and whose exalted mind, With worthy thoughts of that unwearied love, That planned and built, and still upholds a world So clothed with beauty for rebellious man?"
-Pres. S. S. Visitor.
Some of the German carp which were planted in the lake four or five years ago, have grown to aldermanic size, and to a length, as variously estimated by those who have seen them playing in the water, of from three to four feet. Some of these fish undoubtedly now weigh not less than twelve or fifteen pounds, and when the new century dawns, a fish weighing twenty pounds or more may be harpooned in old Quannapowitt. They are vegetable eaters, and will do much we believe towards killing out the weeds in the lake. The alewives cannot reach the lake from the sea via Saugus river as they used to, because the fish-ways at Scott's, Pranker's, and Hone's mills are useless. The fish have an inalienable and legal right of way, but in the opinion of your committee, it is not worth the trouble of a suit at law against the offending parties to secure this right. One object of bringing the alewives to the lake in years past, was to secure their young as food for other fish. Now the lake is teeming with shiners and other small fry, and the alewive is no longer needed. Much criticism has been passed upon the netting and selling of bait at the boat-house. Your committee have considered the matter as to its legality and desira- bility, and have concluded that if we were to obey the strict letter of
67
the law, it could not be allowed. But as the fry that are caught are shiners, which if matured would be of no value to anyone for food, but are the natural prey of all other fish, (care being used to take no other fish,) we are of the opinion that the netting of shiners for bait to be used in the waters from which they are taken, but not to be sold nor carried away to other towns, may safely be allowed. In the evening of last Decoration Day one of your committee caught two trout in a brook not more than a mile from town hall. In April, 1896, we deposited 5,000 trout fry in this same brook, and 5,000 more in other waters in Wakefield in which it was thought they were likely to survive and grow
Winter fishing for pickerel isnow on, under the restrictive law which allows but one line and one hook, (natural or artificial bait) to each person, thus doing away with the former privilege of using as many lines and hooks as could conveniently be handled. Many fine strings have been caught, including several handsome 3 pounders. This law is not operative except in those towns which have accepted the pro- visions of the act by vote under an article in the warrant calling for such acceptance. Wakefield is one of those towns. The open season for bass is from June Ist to December Ist, every day in the week except Sunday. Bass less than eight inches long not to be taken at any time. Your committee are considering the advisability of making application to the Legislature for power to restrict fishing in our lakes to not more than three days in the week. Later on it may be neces- sary to close the lakes for three or five years before they are entirely depleted, for restocking, or to give the fish that survive a chance to restock it themselves. Old Quannapowitt is a splendid fish-pond, and could be made immensely productive with reasonable use and proper care.
Mr. Parker and Mr. Wiley of the committee have been watchful of our fishing interests at all times, in season and out of season ; and no one could possibly be selected who would enjoy the work more heartily or be more alert than they.
Respectfully submitted.
J. C. HARTSHORNE, Secretary.

REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF MILK.
TO THE SELECTMEN OF WAKEFIELD :
There are at present fifty-three dealers in milk in Wakefield, who are licensed to sell milk and deliver by conveyance. This includes all who deliver milk to their customers either by hand or by wagons or otherwise. There are forty-seven registrations as stores, shops, and booths and this includes all dealers who do not deliver, as well as dairies who sell to dealers.
The revenue yielded by the licenses and registrations amounts to fifty-one dollars ($51), which has been paid to the town treasurer.
I have taken for analysis since May 14, seventy-four samples of milk, sixty-three of which were taken from conveyances and eleven from stores.
As this is the first year that milk has been subject to local inspec- tion the law has not been as vigorously enforced as perhaps would be well when dealers are better posted on the provisions of law and their own responsibilty thereto.
Notices have, however, been sent to dealers when their supply has been found to be below standard and the fact is also noted upon the permanent records of the Inspector of Milk.
While I believe that the legal standard for quality of milk is a fair one, there are circumstances under which milk will not attain to it without its having been in any way intentionally modified. There are cows in herds who may produce milk slightly below standard, which if sold unmixed with milk of higher standard quality would be likely to cause trouble to the one selling it. The average of any herd, however, which is fit to produce milk for use will exceed the quality required by law. It is perfectly plain, therefore, that the milk of the several cows in a dairy should be mixed. I am aware, however, that considerable carelessness exists in this very particular.
69
Another way in which a low quality of milk finds its way to the consumer is through the neglect to keep the milk stirred when dis- pensing it.
As the fat (cream) in milk separates quite rapidly from the watery portion a quart of milk poured from a can that has set some time without being disturbed may contain half the fat the whole can contained, and thereby reduce the percentage of solids at once from one to two per cent. below standard.
This is particularly likely to occur in stores, where customers buy milk at irregular intervals, and each succeeding customer gets the larger part of what cream was left by the preceding one.
As these things have occurred and notice has been called to them, there seems to be no reason why the leniency which has been shown should continue to be shown.
It is against these things, as well as dishonestly modifying the milk, and which are the same in effect, viz., the sale of milk of poor quality, that the law is directed, and which inspection is aimed to correct.
The following table shows graphically the result of the analysis of seventy-four samples mentioned above.
For the months of April, May, June, July and August the legal standard is 12 per cent. of total milk solids; i. e., the solid matter left after evaporating the water should equal 12 per cent. of the weight of the milk.
For September, October, November, December, January, Febru- ary and March the legal standard is 13 per cent. of total milk solids.
Standard 12 % for April, May, June, July and August.
