Twenty Courts continue to receive allowances for stationery, i.e., pens, ink, and paper, but not reference books, ranging from £2 to £8 per annum. The total of such annual allowances is about £78. The remaining Courts are supplied by the Stationery Office with such stationery as they may demand. The total value is about £22,500. Of this sum the value of books supplied yearly is about £1,000. The latter are mainly sets of law reports for Judges of circuits, County Court diaries and almanacks, books on County Court practice and various law text-books and periodicals.
