Cowsheds, Dairies, and Milkshops are frequently
inspected by the Inspector of Nuisances and occasionally
by myself. All, with trifling exceptions,
have been found in good order. Most of the milk
is sent to London new. The larger dairies and cowsheds
are always in good order; in the smaller ones
containing i to 3 or 4 cows, it is that defects are
fouud.
