XIII— DISEASES OF ANIMALS ACTS.

year ended 31st December, 1931: —
Licences issued 149

Bonragh:

(iii) Beasts 85
Swine Fever:
(i) Outbreaks confirmed 1
(ii) Outbreaks suspected—not
confirmed 3
A somewhat serious outbreak of Foot and Mouth
Disease occurred in the month of June at County Clare,
Northern Ireland, spreading to Scotland and England,
but the precautionary measures taken by the Ministry
of Agriculture and Fisheries had the effect of checking
lts progress, and fortunately the County of Kent was
infected on this occasion.
The usual Dippings of sheep were carried out and
no outbreak of disease was reported in the Borough.
