PORT HEALTH ADMINISTRATION During the year 254 vessels made a port in Shetland their first port of call after leaving a foreign country. In each case satisfactory Declaration of Health statements were received by Customs Officers. POOD SUPPLIES Particulars of the administration of the Acts and Orders to do with milk, ice cream, meat, and other foods are given in the report of the County Sanitary Inspector. A feature of the past year was the improvement in quantity and quality of the county's milk supply, and the improvement of dairy premises by some enterprising milk producers.
