TABLE 5. 

 COMPARATIVE SUMMARY OF COSTS FOR THE WINTER AND SUMMER PERIODS OF THE INVESTIGATION. 



In the above figures the home-grown foods have been charged at the market prices ascer- 

 tained by the costings officer. 



In the summer period the reduction in labour cost per gallon will be noted owing to the 

 reduced feeding, cleaning of byres, and other causes. 



It will also be noted that owing to increased grazing the cost of foods in the summer period 

 has gone down from 29'29d. in the case of Great Britain ; 30'94d. in England and Wales ; and 

 26'03d. in Scotland to 5'08d. for Great Britain ; 4'87d. for England and Wales ; and 5'38d. for 

 Scotland in the summer period.
