Milk Bottles.—The practice of putting out milk bottles on
the footpath the night before the milkman collects them is a
bad one, as it frequently leads to these bottles becoming fouled
by dogs. All bottles are of course sterilised before use, but
this practice is, nevertheless, undesirable.

who have made 1,955 visits of inspection to the slaughter-houses.
No notification of intended slaughter under the Tuberculosis
Order of 1925 was received.
