Aerated Water Works.—These received visits during the year. In
one instance, where this business was started on a small scale in a
basement unsuitable for the purpose, the owner was persuaded to give
up. Steps are being taken by the mineral water trade to raise the
standard of their factories and the methods employed therein. Regulations
have been framed for this purpose, and certificates as to sanitary
conditions are to be asked for. In one case such a certificate was asked
for and was granted after thorough examination of the premises.
Bakehouses.—At the end of 1906 there were sixteen above-ground
bakehouses in use; two have now to be added to the list and three
have to be deducted (two not being in use at the end of the year);
there are thus fifteen still in use. These are:—
Bakehouses Above Ground (15).

There were 81 underground bakehouses in use at the end of 1906.
Four recently-constructed underground bakehouses were discovered, and
as the Factory and Workshops Act, 1901, prohibits the construction of
such, notices were served on the owners. In two instances aboveground
bakehouses were constructed in their place, one other was given
up, and the case of the fourth is being submitted to a Magistrate for his
opinion, as the owners (a large hotel company) contend that it is not a
retail bakehouse and is merely a department of the kitchen. At the
end of 1907 there were 77 in use. They were
Certified Underground Bakehouses (77).
