FARMING AND FOXHUNTING 



this work has expanded. At the moment we are 

 well past the thousand mark of licences granted to 

 farms where Attested, T.T. or Accredited milk is 

 produced. The Milk Committee of the county can 

 claim to have well launched the Government's 

 scheme for the improvement of the country's milk. 

 Unfortunately the war has interfered with the 

 progress, but we are still active with a depleted 

 staff, and no doubt shall go full speed ahead again 

 when the war is over. 



Before I close this chapter of County Council work, 

 more particularly from an agricultural point of view, 

 I cannot refrain from paying tribute to the hard 

 work and long service of the late Mr. Arthur White ; 

 he indeed was a pillar in the service of his county. 



Mr. Pritchard followed him as Chairman of the 

 Agricultural Committee and bids fair to emulate the 

 example of his predecessor.
