In Penge the duet has this year been collected by men and
boys employed by the Board; and the horses and carts were
supplied by Mr. Craker at 7s. per day. No doubt the work has
been more efficiently done. The total cost of the collection in
Penge was £707, and the sale of dust realized £100 during
the year. The removal of dust from the houses is under the
immediate superintendence of the Inspectors of Nuisances of each
District.
