Further changes occurred during the year, two businesses
changing hands. One trader discontinued as a retailer but
continued as a small scale producer. One new dairy was opened,
while another dairy was erected to replace one, use of which was
discontinued owing to its unsuitability for the purpose. An
application for registration as a retailer was refused owing to
the unsuitability of the proposed premises; as was an application
for permission to use some existing buildings as a cowshed:
in this case the buildings and the drainage were not satisfactory .
In another case, registration as producer was withheld until
'he rectification of defects of the cowshed.
