COWSHEDS, DAIRIES AND MILKSHOPS.
We are constantly making inspections of these premises.
In 1919, they were found in a fairly satisfactory condition—
a few farms gave trouble but cleared up just in time to avoid
our recommending- you to take legal proceedings.
The Bakehouses, Workshops and Slaughterhouses have
been frequently and systematically inspected during 1919—
and all defects remedied at once.
Food Inspection, in some form, has been undertaken
almost daily, and better conditions have been frequently
insisted on.
Every kind of nuisance has been dealt with and in allcases
abatement has followed, by exhibition of firmness and
tact without asking you to take legal proceedings during
1919.
The School premises have been periodically inspected—
and several minor nuisances rectified.
At the end of this Report you will find all the tabular
lists required by the Ministry.
As regards the war and its results on the health of the
district, I cannot state that we have suffered to a greater
degree than other localities. We have our share of
pensioned men, and neurasthenics, but psycho-analysis and
better forms of nerve treatment will improve and cure the
latter, while time will cure all things !
