REMOVAL OF MA NITRE.
Section 94 (2) of the Public Health (London) Act, 1936, empowers the local authority to give
notice requiring the periodical removal of manure from stables, etc. With a view to the prevention
of an increase in flies as well as of other nuisances arising from accumulation of manure, it has been
the practice of the Council for some years past to require stable refuse to be removed twice weekly
during the months of May to September, public notice of such requirement being given by means
of posters displayed in the various Mews in the Borough. Very little difficulty is experienced in
securing compliance with the notice.
