It is hoped and confidently expected that at the end of the
second year a much more favourable balance sheet will be able
to be presented. It will be noticed in the above that a sum of
£1,740 was paid to Contractors for work done while the buildings
were being finished and the plant acquired. The item for
Veterinary Surgeons will be considerably reduced now that the
horses are purchased, and the Committee expenses will also show
a large reduction now that the establishment is in working order.
