OFFENSIVE TRADES.
The bye-laws regulating the trade of Rag and Bone Merchant
were put into operation during the year.
Three summonses were issued against a marine store dealer, a
persistent offender against their provisions. The magistrate imposed a
fine of 15s. and costs, and as a result the trade has since been carried
on without creating nuisance.
No complaints were received during the year in respect of any of
the marine store dealers carrying on business in the district.
Fat boiling is still carried on at a Pig Farm, situated on the
extreme border of the district, but no complaints have been received,
and the conditions have always been found satisfactory upon inspection
