This slaughter-house is let to a contractor. The total housing fees collected were $450.49, a decrease of $12.90 on last year. There were a greater number of cattle killed but fewer sheep owing to the fact that the Indian regiments in Kowloon now kill in their own lines and fewer swine owing to the opening of a slaughter-house in Sham Sui Po by the contractor, who thus kills all the pigs for the Mong Kok Tsui and Tai Kok Tsui Markets.
Shaukiwan and Aberdeen are also leased to a contractor.
The total revenue from Animal Depôts and Slaughter-houses works out as follows:-
1909 1908 Kennedy Town, fees collected $73,590.75 $67,934.50 Ma Tau Kok $450.49 $463.39 Blood and Hair contract $7,608.00 $6,888.00 Contractor's tender for Ma Tau Kok, Aberdeen and Shaukiwan $9,930.00 $11,232.00 Total $91,579.24 $86,507.89There is an error in this table in the 1908 figures in last year's annual report. The figures given as $12,066.00 are those of the 1907 contract and should have been as above, viz., $11,232.00.
