OFFENSIVE TRADES
Four offensive trade premises are established in the district,
and during the year no complaints were received in connection
therewith.
SMOKE ABATEMENT
During the course of the year observations have been kept
on the factory chimneys of the district for nuisances due to the
issue of an excessive amount of smoke.
SWIMMING BATHS AND POOL
The water at each of the Baths in Enfield is tested twice daily
by the Superintendents to ascertain the concentration cf Chlorine
in the water. In addition, samples are taken each week by my
Department and examined in the Laboratory at the Office for
chlorine content and alkalinity.
During the warm part of the Season samples of the water
have been sent to the Emergency Public Health Laboratories where
a full chemical and bacteriological examination is carried out.
I was satisfied that throughout the Season the purity of the
water in the Baths was satisfactorily maintained.
SCHOOLS
The sanitary condition of the County Schools in the District
is under the constant supervision of the Sanitary Inspectors and
any defects found are immediately remedied by the Authorities
concerned.
The sanitary conveniences at all the non-provided schools are
attended to daily by an employee of the Health Department.
MILK
Seventeen cowkeepers in the District maintain herds of milch
cows. Despite difficulties the standard of cleanliness has been
fairly well maintained.
Three of the farms produce Tuberculin tested milk, and six
produce Accredited milk. Regular sampling of these specially
designated milks by the Middlesex County Council have shown
consistently satisfactory results throughout the year.
