Rag Flock Act.
There are no flock manufactories in the District.
I have found that in all cases the bags which contain the
flock used bear a label: "Washed flock, Guaranteed up to
L.G.B. Standard."
Old Metal and Marine Store Dealers.
Eight persons are registered. Books are kept by them
in accordance with the Act, and periodical inspections have
been made of the premises and books.

There are 116 factories and workshops on the register,
which includes 17 bakehouses. They have been regularly
inspected. Forty-six notices have been served respecting
cleansing, etc.
Lodging Houses.
The number of Common Lodging Houses is five. They
are all situated in Arpley Road, and are registered for 61
male lodgers. The cleansing has been carried out in accordance
with by-laws. Surveillance is kept of these houses.
There are 21 houses in Arpley Road registered as
Houses let in Lodgings. These contain 105 furnished rooms
which are kept in a cleanly condition.
Disinfection.
Disinfection has been carried out at 38 premises after
cases of tuberculosis, and 12 after cancer, in addition to those
premises where other notifiable diseases occurred.
Where vermin are discovered, disinfection of rooms,
bedding, and clothing is carried out. This has been done in
60 cases.
