The expenditures of the Board for the ensuing year will be kept strictly within the amount appropriated for the purpose, and the committee, as advised by the Board, respectfully suggests that the Legislature may, with advantage to the State, authorize the expenditure of five thousand dollars in addition to the sum of five thousand dollars allowed by law for sanitary surveys, inspections and expert duties, which are now and will be required for successful work, and which the State should provide for in addition to the necessary work of local Boards of Health.
