During the past year there have been collected and hauled to the various dumps 6222 single cartloads of ashes, an increase of about 3% over last year. There were collected 993 wagon- loads of waste papers, a decrease of about 25% from 1916. This was due to the fact that many of the storekeepers baled and sold their own paper. The collection of garbage amounted to about 300 cords, a decrease of about 20% due to the agitation relative to food conservation.


The equipment has been kept in repair and consists of the following: 4 offal wagons (1 new), 3 offal pungs; 1 paper wagon, 1 double drop bottom Wesson ash cart, 2 single ash carts, and 1 single ash sled, together with manure pulls, shovels, forks, etc.


A large cesspool has been constructed at the offal house, and thus far has given satisfaction. In closing I would recom- mend an appropriation of $19,000 for carrying on the work of this department the ensuing year.

REPORT OF THE INSPECTOR OF MARKETS.


To the Board of Health, Arlington, Mass.


Gentlemen: I herewith submit my report as Inspector of Markets for the year ending December 31, 1917.


All markets were inspected at frequent intervals and in most cases found living up to all State and Town health laws.


We have at present about sixty stores that are visited by the Inspector of Markets. A few complaints coming to my attention were investigated. One, of tainted corned beef which was returned, the storekeeper refunded the purchase price. Two cases of bad odor in markets proved to be bad corned beef brine which was condemned.


Fish markets are kept clean and fish has been found very good. Refrigerators in a few markets were found unsatis- factory as to cleanliness, but storekeepers in all cases made matters right. A few storekeepers selling "shortening" with- out stamping the same as "compound" were instructed to purchase stamp and use it.

It has been the policy of your Inspector to try to make. Arlington's milk supply clean, pure, and reasonably safe. It

became necessary in carrying out this policy to require in some instances that changes in construction and sanitary improve- ments be made. As a result of these requirements, one dealer preferred to dispose of his business rather than make the changes suggested.


The following summary shows in detail the amount and nature of the work done during that portion of the year which this report covers.

REPORT OF COMMISSIONERS OF CEMETERIES ROBBINS FUND, SOLDIERS' MONUMENT FUND AND SAMUEL C. BUCKNAM FUND.


Arlington, February 1, 1918.


The Commissioners of Cemeteries, Soldiers' Monument Fund and Samuel C. Bucknam Fund herewith present the report of the work done by the Department during the year ending December 31, 1917.


During the year more lots and single graves have been sold than ever before, the number of lots sold being 45 and single graves 21, making a total of 66, as against 62 in 1917. The difference between the two years is, however, better shown by the number of lots, 45 in 1917, as against 25 in 1916, and 21 single graves in 1917, as against 37 in 1916.


The gross receipts from the sale of these lots and single graves is $3625. From this amount $635 was credited to the Cemetery Department for grading, corner posts, etc., and the balance $2990 turned into the Town Treasury and made available for other purposes. The large number of lots sold made it necessary to grade and prepare for sale Plot "Q," and this has been done during the year. The drives, walks and plots have received the usual attention during the year, as have the Soldiers' Monument Grounds and the Old Cemetery, both of which come under the care of the Commissioners.
