MANUFACTURE, STORAGE AND SALE OF ICE CREAM
Eighty-three registrations of premises were in force at the beginning
of the year, and a further four were added during the year.
Twenty-six visits to premises were made during the year in
addition to forty visits for the purpose of obtaining ice cream
samples.
Ice-Cream Samples (Bacteriological Examinations)
Fourteen samples of ice-cream and ice-lollies were obtained and
found to be satisfactory. The number of samples has again been
reduced this year due to the fact that the bulk of such product is
made by the large manufacturers whose standard is of the highest.
Further, the major part of the sales are wrapped.
Foods and Drugs and Bacteriological Examinations
As in former years, the Food and Drugs samples were submitted
to Messrs. Bernard Dyer and Partners Ltd., (George Taylor, Esq.,
F.R.I.C., Dr. J. H. Hamence, F.R.I.C., and P. S. Hall, Esq.,
A.R.I.C.) of 20 Eastcheap, London, E.C.3 and samples for bacteriological
examination to the Counties Public Health Laboratories
(Roy C. Hoather, Esq., B.Sc., Ph.D., F.RI.C., F.R.San.I.; W. A.
Bullough, Esq., C.B.E., M.Sc., M.B., Ch.B., D.P.H., and Gordon
