REPORT OF TOWN PHYSICIAN.


ARLINGTON, MASS., December 31, 1912.


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen: I have the honor to submit my report as Town Physician for the year 1912.


Number of office calls


49


Number of house visits 49


Number of emergency calls at Police Station 20


The actual number of emergency calls from the Police Station requiring the services of a physician was sixty-seven. This is an increase of six over the year 1911.


Since the opening of the Symmes Arlington Hospital all serious cases have been taken there. Through this means all cases have received prompt medical attention within fifteen minutes after the case was seen by a physician. The value of this prompt service to the injured person can hardly be estimated.


Our means of transportation for sick people here in Arlington are inadequate. We have been using an open automobile with a stretcher across the rear doors. The need for a fast motor ambu- lance is felt more and more by those connected with the work. It could be used constantly by sick people wishing to be moved about town or out of town.


During the past twelve months there have been very few serious cases of illness among the poor of the town. I have found no case due to actual want or due to lack of prompt and early medical attention.


Respectfully submitted,


HAROLD R. WEBB, Town Physician.

REPORT OF THE INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS.


ARLINGTON, MASS, January 1, 1913. To the Honorable Board of Selectmen of the Town of Arlington.


Gentlemen: I have herein the honor to submit to you my annual report as Inspector of Animals for the year ending December 31, 1912.


During the year there have been eight cases of glanders in horses and five cases of tuberculosis in cows.


In making the annual spring inspection, I inspected one hun- dred thirty-six cows, five hundred sixty-eight pigs and sixty stables wherein these animals were stabled. In all cases the proper papers were made out and given to the owners.


Respectfully submitted,


LAURENCE L. PEIRCE, M.D.V., Inspector of Animals.

HIGHWAY DIVISION. 1


The principal work of the Highway Division has been the resurfacing of Massachusetts Avenue between Academy Street


233


234


ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT


and the Lexington line and several short pieces on Massachusetts Avenue between Tufts Street and the Cambridge line; 6,627 tons of crushed stone were used on the work, the total cost being $24,062.65 which includes change in street line on the south side of Massachusetts Avenue between Academy and Pleasant Streets, resetting edgestone, etc. The total number of square yards re- surfaced is 33,356, the average cost per square yard being 68 cents. A contract was made with John A. Gaffey for resurfacing a por- tion of the Avenue at $2.18 per ton for stone furnished and rolled in place on the street. The total amount of the work done by him was $1,258.36, which is included in the above.


In connection with the resurfacing on Massachusetts Avenue, the Boston Elevated Railway has laid a new track and substituted about 175,000 new granite paving block. This pavement has been grouted with Portland cement and it is the intention during the spring of 1913 to treat this pavement with tar for the purpose of securing a smooth surface and to prevent dust. An appro- priation of $1,000 was made for the purchase of the rejected paving block at the rate of $10 per thousand.


Chapman Street was resurfaced with material taken from Massa- chusetts Avenue. The balance of the material was saved to be used for general repairs on streets.


The total cost of maintaining the stable and the teams was $7,784.71, the cost of motor car and operation being $1,098.91. Fifteen horses were kept at the stable, the average cost of main- tenance per working day being $1.73 per horse. After having charged ourselves and other departments for use of teams at the rate of $1.75 per day there remains $1,077.80, which was the cost of maintaining the horses used by the foremen in the street division and the Town Engineer.


Four thousand two hundred and forty-one tons of crushed stone were purchased on cars at Arlington, the price including car service being $1.22 per ton. Three hundred and ninety-seven tons of crushed stone were delivered by teams on the work, the average cost being $1.62 per ton, making the average cost of all stone purchased $1.25 per ton. Seven thousand and ninety-five tons of crushed stone were reported used on the work.


One thousand eight hundred and eighty tons came from our own crusher. There are. on hand at the present time 33 tons


235


REPORT OF BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS


showing that 1,913 tons were crushed during the year at a total cost of $2,168.76, or $1.14 per ton. Six hundred tons of stone for crushing were on hand January 1, 1912, which decreased the cost per ton of crushed stone.


A large amount of fences and bridging was done during the year and included in the cost of care and repairs of sidewalks, the total amount of which is $2,573.45.


In addition to the $5,000 which was appropriated for the pre- vention of dust, there was expended from the Highway Appro- priation for oils and water $1,915.70, making the total cost of the treatment for prevention of dust for the season $6,915.70. This does not include the hot tar which was used for repairs on streets. About seventeen miles of streets were treated.


The net amount expended on highways was $43,278.51, the cash balance on hand being $106.11. The excess cost of work comes from the difference in value of the stock on hand this year com- pared with last year.


On petition from Arlington and Winchester the County Com- missioners gave hearings on the alteration of Mystic Street at the Arlington-Winchester line. In February the Commissioners issued their decree widening the street to about sixty feet in width opposite the Winchester Country Club and continuing this width some distance into Winchester. The towns were ordered to. complete the work before July 1, 1912. Damages were awarded to Ella J. Langley in the sum of $100 for land taken in Arlington, which sum is payable by this Town. Owing to insufficient appro- priation no work was done by the Town except to lay a storm drain from the line to the brook at a cost of $285.13. The County Commissioners after notifying the Town let this work out by contract to John A. Gaffey, the lowest bidder. It will be necessary for the Town to reimburse the County for this work next year.


One thousand, nine hundred and twenty-four feet of brick sidewalk was laid on the northerly side of Massachusetts Avenue between a point opposite Mt. Vernon Street to near Forest Street. This gives a continuous sidewalk on the northerly side of Massa- chusetts Avenue, from the Town Hall to Forest Street. The total cost of permanent sidewalks for the year was $3,438.50. The assessments amount to $1,550.65, showing that the Town paid 55% of the total cost.


236


ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT


Early in the season a twelve-inch pipe was laid in Academy Street for the purpose of taking water from the brook which flowed directly through the site of the new Town Hall. This makes the fourth cut off on this brook, the other three being Bartlett Avenue, Jason and Pleasant Streets.


A financial statement showing a summary of all expenditures and costs is given in Table 1. Table 2 shows the detail of cost of Norfolk Road construction, also the construction of several storm water drains.


Table 3 gives in detail the cost of permanent sidewalks and the renewal of others. The total costs in all tables include all indirect expenses in the same manner as shown in former reports.


The total value of the property controlled by this division, January 1, 1913 amounts to $16,333.40 classified as follows:


Horses and vehicles $5,743.25


Machinery and large tools


7,188.00


Small tools 2,223.47


Office furniture


195.50


Material available for new work 983.18


Stock in charge of the Highway Division, but owned by other departments.


Health Department $1,946.00


Street Watering Department 1,861.70


SEWER DIVISION.


During the year 6,363 feet of 8, 10, 12 inch sewer has been built at an expense of $7,000. A greater portion of this expense, namely $2,534.33, was the cost of constructing a main sewer from the Boston and Maine Railroad location near Alewife Brook through Fairmont Street, Lake Avenue, Magnolia Street and private lands to Varnum Street to care for the new development in this section. This outlet will serve the entire territory known as Whittemore Park and adjacent land. The assessment plans on this work have not yet been finished, but undoubtedly the sewer assessments will equal or exceed the cost of the sewers.


One hundred and sixty-three house connections have been made with the main sewer at a total cost of $4,380.87. In addition, four house connections have been extended to other buildings


237


REPORT OF BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS


on the same premises, one has been taken up and laid deeper, to enable fixtures to be located in the cellar, the cost of all the above work being paid by the owners. Several house connec- tions have been partially relaid to remove roots of trees at a cost of $207.54 which is paid by the department.


The entire sewer system has been cleaned twice and flushed, the total cost being $526.14. The total cost of maintenance for the year was $1,039.56, the cost of particular sewers and other outside work was $583.21. There is an overdraft in this division of $168.24, which is due to seven particular sewer accounts which have not been closed.


A detailed statement giving cost of sewers extended in 1912 is shown on Table 4. A summary of all expenditures in this division is shown in Table 5. Table 6 shows the cost of the sewers also the amount of assessments to date.
