BAKEHOUSES.
There are 51 Bakehouses in the district—12 underground and
39 on the ground level.
During the year, 99 inspections have been made by myself and
the Sanitary Inspectors.
The Bakehouses generally are kept in a clean and sanitary
condition, especially during the hours that are subject to inspection,
but during the hours when the business is in full progress one is
afraid the baker is more concerned about the bread than his
health.
He has cultivated a natural abhorrence of fresh air, and
frequently makes the rising of his bread the excuse or reason for
debarring its entrance into his bakehouse.
The following is a list of Bakehouses:—
