DIARYMEN GIVE REASONS
FOR BIASING PRICE OF MILK
ATLANTA, April 17.—Atlanta dairy
fanners, who produce their own milk
and sell it direct to their individual
customers, delivering it to their doors
on wagons, claim it is impossible un
der existing conditions to produce and
deliver milk for less than 25 cents a
quart.
The Federation of Women’s Clubs
of Atlanta has recently launched a
fight on the high price of milk and
succeeded in arousing keen public in
terest. The Federation of Trades has
joined the women’s clubs in their
fight. Plans are on foot for the es
tablishment of big depots where certi
fied milk will be sold for actual cost.
The dairymen claim that Georgia
laws with regard to tubercular cattle
provide no compensation for dairy
cows condemned atid killed, and this
makes it financially impossible for
dairymen to buy the big milk produc
ers used in northern states. They
claim that the price of all dairy feed
has advanced 100 per cent, in the past
few years. They claim that labor is
also up 100 per cent.
For Itching Torture j
There is one remedy that seldom
fails to stop itching torture and relieve
skm irritation and that makes the skin
soft, clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
Zemo, which generally overcomes all
skm diseases. Eczema, itch, pimples,
rashes, blackheads in most cases give
way to Zemo. Frequently, minor blem
ishes disappear over night. Itching us
ually stops instantly. Zemo is a safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only 35c; an ex
tra large bottle, SI.OO. It will not stain,
is not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.
