![four Wards, and Icl tlio collpctiou of iiiglitsoil all in one Contract. That is one Coiitiactor to be responsible for tbe collection of the nightsoil in all the four Wards, which I understand can be dune [in five nights. The receipts for salvage of sera]) iron, (^c., for the year amounted to £9G 4s. 3d. There has also been a nmiiber of loads of clinker sold. The receipts have been accounted for in tbe Surveyor’s Dept. In addition there has been a considerable amount of clinker used for road formation with good results, ; also a lot of small clinker was used in the Winter on the roads during frosty conditions. All this must tend to reduce the cost of disposing of the Town’s refuse. The amount of refine dispo.sed of during the year is approxi- mately 3,023 loads ; in addition to this there is the trade refuse, which I am pleased to report the tradesmen take full advantage, as it means there is not the decayed vegetable and animal matter lying about the premises and deposited on the tips as that has been the case for so long. In conclusion, I beg to thank the Chairman and Committee for their kind consideration of the Reports that have been submitted during the year. I remain, Gentlemen, Your obedient Servant, To the Chairman and Members of the JOHN A. STATHAM, Sanitary Inspector. Helper Urban District Council.
