Report of Board of Health.


The Board of Health herewith submits its annual report :


The total number of contagious diseases reported to the Board the past year were as follows :


Diphtheria,


5 cases


Scarlet fever, . .


48 cases


Spotted fever, 4 cases


Typhoid fever,


11 cases


Measles, .


13 cases


The work of the Board has gone along with its usual smoothness and harmony. A large number of nuisances have been abated, and those responsible for them, have at all times cheerfully responded to the Board's requests.


One of the largest items of expense has been the drain- ing of wet lands, principally the land that borders on the Saugus river. This expense occurs each year, and so long as present conditions exist, will continue.


The Board would recommend that all who are on the line of the public sewer, connect with same at their earliest con- venience ; by so doing they will save the Board the necessity of taking legal measures later.


191


There are matters of importance the Board would like to recommend this year, but refrain from doing so in view of our present tax rate, and the many large demands which the town must meet. The Board feels however that it must mention one great need in our town which will soon be an absolute necessity.


A town team to take care and dispose of offal.


Respectfully submitted,


JOSEPH W. HEATH, M. D., Chairman. AUGUSTUS D. JENKINS, Secretary. WILLIAM H. McCAUSLAND.
