The administration of the Diseases of Animal Acts, whereby
the spread of animal diseases is controlled, has' been more onerous
this year. In view of the country wide outbreaks of foot and
mouth disease much attention has had to be given to licensing
of animal movement into and out of the Borough. Fortunately
no case of foot and mouth disease occurred locally although there
were cases in the near vicinity. A case of Anthrax and three
cases of swine fever notified to me proved to be positive.
The Statistical tables and comments in the body of the report
give some indication of the amount and variety of work done in
a loyal and conscientious manner by those under my control.
GEO. GRIEVE,
Chief Sanitary Inspector.
