Collection of Swill
At the March Town Meeting, 1913, $1,500.00 was appropriated for the collection of swill. The Board advertised for bids for doing the work, and finally awarded the contract to Thomas I. Paon for the sum of $1,200.00 per year.
The work of collecting swill in the Town has been carried out very satisfactorily. There have been a few complaints, but these were promptly attended to by the Board.
The Board is looking forward to the time when the Town will realize the necessity, and vote an appropriation for the collection and proper disposal of ashes and other refuse.

REPORT OF THE MILK INSPECTOR
To the Honorable Board of Health.
Gentlemen: - I respectfully submit the following report for the year ending Dec. 31, 1914.
Ninety-one samples of milk have been collected, showing the average percentage of solids not fat of 8.954 of butter fat 3.961 total 12.915.
Forty-nine milk and five oleomargarine licenses have been issued.
At the present time the question of milk inspection is-in a very unsettled condition, our present policy is for analysis for milk solids and adulterations only.
In some of our neighboring towns arrangements have been made with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for a more thorough examination, especially along the lines of bacteria, and I would suggest that your Board give this subject your careful consideration.
Respectfully submitted,
H. A. SIMONDS, Milk Inspector.

THE TOWN PLANNING BOARD
At the last annual Town Meeting, the town voted to accept Chapter 494 of Acts of 1913, calling for the appointment of a Town Planning Board. In accordance with this vote, the following were chosen to serve the Town of Wakefield as its first Planning Board: F. A. Long, H. B. Mansfield, Forrest A. Seavey, Dr. C. L. Sopher and Dr. J. William O'Connell. At the organization of the Board, Mr. Long was elected chairman and Dr. O'Connell, secretary.
128
The object of City or Town Planning Boards is to study the resources, possibilities, and needs of the city or town, par- ticularly with respect to conditions which may be injurious to the public health or otherwise injurious in and about rented dwellings, and to make plans for the development of the muni- cipalities with special reference to the housing of its people.
To the end that this study might be as thorough as possible, the following sub-committees were appointed :
Comprehensive Planning: Mr. Long.
Housing: Mr. Mansfield.
Streets and Transportation: Mr. Seavey.
Public Health and Economics: Dr. Sopher.
Education and Publicity: Dr. O'Connell.
The Committee meets monthly in regular session besides having frequent informal meetings.
Several of the members have also attended various meetings and conferences held by the Massachusetts Homestead Com- mission at the State House.
The Board reports that it is studying the various problems pertaining to the future growth and welfare of the town and its inhabitants, and feels sure that pronounced good can result from the efforts of such a Board, especially if backed up by the citizens in general, and in particular by the various Improve- ment Societies which have already done a great deal of good toward the betterment of conditions in this town.
FRANK A. LONG, Chairman, HUBBARD B. MANSFIELD, FORREST A. SEAVEY, DR. CURTIS L. SOPHER, DR. J. WILLIAM O'CONNELL, Secretary.
