Milk Supply—One cowkeeper gave up business in 1925, and at the
end of the year there were 5 cowkeepers and purveyors and 10 retail
purveyors of milk on the Register. The premises were periodically
inspected, and found to comply generally with the Regulations.
A purveyor who was carrying on business under unsuitable conditions
removed to other and more satisfactory premises. An unregistered purveyor
from a neighbouring District, who was found to be selling milk in this
District, made application on his attention being drawn to the requirements
of the Milk and Dairies Acts, and was registered.
