Report of the Medical Officer of Health.
Table XCVII shows the nature of the trades carried on nt
the workshops inspected.
There has been a slight increase in the numbers, chiefly due
to increase in the number of small laundries, 82 of these being
now on the Register, compared with 69 in 1909.
The total number of dressmakers and milliners, etc., shows a
slight increase compared with the previous year. The total
number, viz.:—874 (164 in Clapham, no in Putney, 313 in Streatham,
72 in Tooting, and 215 in Wandsworth), is 25 more than in
1909, the greatest increase having occurred in Streatham, while
there has been a slight decrease in Clapham and Wandsworth.
