REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS
Jan. 27, 1922.
TO THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN :
I hereby submit to you the report of my work for the year ending 1921.
In January, as usual, I received orders from the De- partment of Animal Industry to make a complete inspec- tion of all neat cattle, sheep, swine and goats, and the condition of stables in which they are kept.
On this inspection I visited 51 stables, in which were kept 339 cattle, 285 swine, 3 sheep and 3 goats. I found five stables in rather bad condition and one cow which I quarantined for tuberculosis, and after being examined by an agent of the Animal Industry was killed and stable disinfected.
March 1 I found a dog suffering from what appeared to be "Rabies." I killed this dog, sent head to State. House, Boston, Mass., had it examined and it proved as I suspected, "Rabies."
March 6 I quarantined a playmate dog of the one I killed, but after 90 days, as he showed no signs of "Rabies," I released him.
May 5 I quarantined a cow for tuberculosis, and she was examined by an agent, was condemned, killed and stable disinfected.
6
May 7 I took an agent of Department of Animal In- dustry to see the five stables which were kept unclean, and he pronounced them very bad.
July 21 a horse arrived from out of state, and after I examined him and he seemed all right I released him.
August 4 a cow was quarantined for tuberculosis and examined by an agent, condemned, killed and stable dis- infected.
In October a child was bitten by a neighbor's dog. I had the dog killed, sent his head to State House Labora- tory to be examined for "Rabies". Under the test there he showed no signs, but later was inoculated into a small animal and proved "Rabid".
Oct. 7 a bull arrived in this town from out of state, and after examination was released.
Respectfully submitted, GEORGE S. CHENEY, Inspector of Animals.

REPORT OF THE PARK COMMISSIONERS
TO THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN :
We have practically completed the Park on Baxter Square, which was designed in a manner best suited as a place for a soldiers' memorial. The planting of ever- greens along the southern border was done for the pur- pose of creating an attractive background for this memo- rial, which is intended to be placed on that end of the Park. It was necessary to purchase young trees because of the expense and to use no more than was necessary to carry out the idea. We propose to add, from time to time, trees of different sizes, shapes and color in order, ultimately, to complete the scheme. The border of shrubbery along the easterly side, when mature, will con- ceal the fence and railroad track beyond.
Because of the existing high rate of taxation, we do not propose, this year, to recommend the development of any of the other lands owned by the town for park, mu- nicipal or recreation purposes.
We desire to remove such trees on Baxter Square as were hopelessly ruined by the sleet storm, and replace with young trees, since large ones would be expensive and difficult to obtain.
We would like to add some park benches to provide restful places in the shade, to secure the means for proper care during the year, and to provide a sufficient sum to cover incidentals.
We therefore recommend an appropriation of five hundred dollars for the ensuing year.
