of cases of tuberculous glands tuberculosis of bones and tuberculous menln jitis which are chiefly due to imp ire milk in georgetown has decrcised nptably in recent years there ts as yet no supervision over some of the cream consumed in town unfortunately it has been establish ed by the courts that milk and cream are two different producl our by law applies to milk only therefore some cream is being brought into town from untested herds nd unsupervised premises some of the cream may be safe but the board or health cannot be responsible for iu quality it is recommended that the by

factory waste which makes them mint for children to use all this can be remedied by setting up the nucleus of a sewer system conditions are becoming continuously worse and on many occasions factor tea

made to make a start 2 garbage disposal there is one official dump in our town park for the disposal of garbage material conditions might be reasonably satis factory if those who used it were more
