Other regulations areâ€" "The sale within the City of Kitchener of unpasteurized milk or cream is hereby prohibited, unless the Veterinary Inspector or Food inspector has in writing certified that the said cow or cows and her contains no reactor and is, in his opinion, free from tuberculosis." "The Local Board of Health shall have charge of the granting and transfer of licenses and It shall be their duty; To receive and keep a complete register of all applicants for licenses and for transfer of liâ€" censes.
