Cowkeepers.
There are three cowkeepers registered in the district, two of whom
are licensed by the County Council, to use the term " Accredited
Milk." Approximately 100 cows are kept in the district.
Regular inspections have been made of the farms and samples
of the milk taken.
All milk (excepting the specially designated milk) consumed in
the district is pasteurised, though not all sold under the designation
" pasteurised."
Milk Retailers.
The register contains the names of 22 milk retailers residing
either inside or outside the district, the reduction in the number
during the war being solely due to rationalisation of deliveries.
The results of the chemical analyses of milk are shown under
Food and Drugs Act report.
