That is to say, if a barrow trades in the busiest central area,-the minimum fee should be £75 per year, in the area adjacent, say, £25 per year, and in the suburbs, say, .€lO per year. It seems but fair that the Council receive from the barrowmen not less than it receives from shops in the same locality. If more can be obtained so much the better.— Your9 ' etc - : ■ rates;
