Holly House,
Lower Edmonton,
20th December, 1920.
Dear Sir,
I beg to report that I have inspected the whole of the milch
cows throughout the district, as shown in the accompanying list.
I made a careful examination of the udders and found them,
on the whole, satisfactorily free from disease. A small proportion
of cases of induration and other conditions resulting from mammitis
or injury frequent among milch cows were found, and one
udder proved to be affected with Tuberculosis. This I reported
at the time.
In other respects the herds all appeared healthy and in satisfactory
condition.
I am, dear Sir,
Yours obediently,
(Sd.) H. H. Hide.
T. W. Scott, Esq.
With regard to the cow referred to in the Veterinary Inspector's
December report, enquiries were made as soon as I received information
of this, when we found that this cow. with others, had been
sold to a dealer in another District, but in spite of endeavours
we were unable to trace it further.
I have also received from Dr. Young, County Medical Officer,
the following return of work done during the year by the County
Council Inspectors under the Sale of Food and Drugs Act, in this
District.
