Slaughter Houses.
There are only six registered slaughter houses
in the district, and none of these are very much
used.
Frequent inspections have been made, as far
as possible, during the time when slaughtering was
in progress, but in no instance has any infringement
of the regulations been detected.
Dairies, Cowsheds, and Milkshops.
Periodical inspections of the dairies, cowsheds
and milkshops within the district have been
made, and on the whole a high standard of
cleanliness has been found. In two instances,
however, it was necessary to serve a notice to
enforce the cleansing required by the regulations.
Three applications for registration were
received during the year, one from a dairyman and
two from purveyors of milk residing outside the
district, and their names have been placed on the
register.
The businesses of one cowkeeper, one dairyman,
and two purveyors of milk residing in the
district and one outside, have changed 'hands.
One dairy and one milkshop have been closed.
