DAIRIES, COWSHEDS AND MILKSHOPS.
There are at present 7 registered Cowsheds in use in the
District. These have been periodically visited, and generally have
been found to be in a satisfactory condition. There are 155
milk sellers on the register. The majority of these are small
dealers and keep the milk in their shop. Attention has been
given to the cleanliness of the utensils and the protection of
the milk from dust, &c.
Pressure has been brought to bear on retail milk vendors
to provide an efficient cover to all milk receptacles kept on shop
counters. These covers are now in general use all over the district.

in the District:—
