Report of Inspector of Animals


One annual inspection of herds and barns has been made as usual, at which time was found: Dairy cattle 380; swine, 170; sheep, 8.


During the year 1922, six cows were quarantined upon suspicion of being tuberculous. Four were condemned and killed.


There has been no cases of rabies or glanders. There have been brought from other states into this town 262 cattle. These I have identified and released.


During the year I have been called to inspect and stamp 294 carcasses of pork; 10 carcasses of veal; 6 carcasses of beef. One carcass of pork being diseased was condemned.

Report of Superintendent of Schools


TO THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE :-


It becomes my duty and pleasure to report to you, and through you, to the people of the town, the status and progress of the schools during the past year.


It is a special pleasure to make the report this year, because the new school building is a reality and is being enjoyed by the children and teachers, most intensely. It is unquestionable, that the children come to school, many times, when they would not otherwise attend, simply because they enjoy the new, well lighted, warm, comfortable building.
