A statement of the interments made is shown in Table No. 17, appended hereto. Many trees were planted in this cemetery during the year, and about 5 acres of low ground filled. Very little road building has been accomplished owing to lack of funds. The wooden headboards are being removed and replaced with concrete headstones, showing the grave number. The La Loma Cemetery was closed April 1, 1905, as it was already overfilled with graves. This cemetery has been kept in a fair condition by cutting the grass and caring for the graves. The Paco Cemetery has been cared for during the past year, the trees and shrubbery being trimmed, the cement walks and wall repaired, and the walls and chapel scraped, cleaned, and whitewashed. Water connections are needed to sprinkle the grass and plants, and a better drainage system is required. The interments are shown in Table No. 18. The expenses of the various divisions are shown in Tables Nos. 4, 5, 6, and 21. Very respectfully, J. C. MEHAN, Superintendent Street Cleaning, Collection and Disposal of Refuse.
