FARMERS ASSISI
IN PURE IW
Agriculture Commissioner Shows
Dairymen Unhealthy Samples
From Their Own Wagons.
Commissioner of Agriculture J- ^
I*rlce, inaugurates of the campaign
against Impure milk product®, has
unearthed a startling condition of af
fairs among the dairies of Pulton
County, according to information re
ceived at the State Department.
Officials working under the direc
tion of the State Commissioner de
clared Tuesday that tubercular cows,
open wells, filthy cow stable® and
other almost indescribable sanitary
conditions had been found to exist
throughout Fulton County. Kach vio
lation Is sufficient for an Indictment
and either a .sentence or a heavy fine,
under the State pure food and drug*
act of 1910.
Although bad conditions have been
discovered, the work of the State offi
cials thus far has been purely educa
tional. Since the campaign for pure
milk was inaugurated about ten days
ago more than 100 dairymen, princi
pally of Fulton County, have been
summoned to appear before Commis
sioner Price, following an inspection
of their premises by the State in
spectors. In each case the dalrymnn
has been told of the existing condi
tions at his farm, has been shown the
actual bacteria which exist in sam
ples taken from his dairv and ha® re
ceived, in addition, a warning to clean
up immediately in lieu of being In
dicted for a violation of the law.
Without exception, the dairymen
have promised Mr. Price to be good.
A second inspection by the State offi
cials will determine whether they
have carried out their promises.
Dr. Kenneth Atkins, bacteriologist
under Mr. Price, has issued an In
formal warning to mothers and con
sumers of milk in general to purchase
only pasteurized milk, in view of the
present bad conditions.

Council to Eliminate Bostwck and' Mystery in Suicide of Wife of
j Wealthy Chicago Broker in
Lake Michigan.
Gaiilard, Old Storm Cen
ters, Says Rumor.
JACKSONVILLE, Sept. 9 —Rumors
which are regarded as authentic are
being circulated here to-day to the
effect that both William M. Bostwick,
Jr., the retiring chairman of the
Board of Bond Trustees, and Henry
Gaiilard will be defeated for re-
ele^tlon members of the board for
another term.
Bostwick has long been chairman
of the board, and has ruled with an
iron hand. Gaiilard is chairman of
the police committee. Both have fig
ured prominently in the controversy
which has waged for some months
between Mayor Swearingen and the
board for the control of the police
force. It is also generally under
stood that George M. Powell, a lead
ing attorney, will be one of the new
men elected to the board by the City
Council. Several candidates are be
ing considered for the other vacancy,
but no definite decision has been
reached. Either Powell or Sig Hess,
a member.of the pre<-«ent board, will
probably be chosen by the board as
Its chairman.
Bostwick. who has been a trustee
for about five years, has long been
a storm center. While regarded as
capable, those opposing him accuse
him of arrogance in running the
city's affair® and declare that he Is
indifferent to public opinion. A.-.'
members of the board attend to the
city’s financial affairs and operate the
waterworks and municipal light
plant, the position of trustee is re
garded as far more powerful than
that of Councilman. The Councilmen,
however, are elected by the people,
while the trustees are elected by the
Council, and are not, therefore, rep
resentative of the people. It is here
that the opposition to be board arise®.
During the recent street car strike,
when Mayor Jordan was in office.
1 tost wick ar.d the board directed the
work of the police, and since then
there Has been a popular demand for
the abolition of that body, or at least
th.* elimination of Bostwick.
Either Powell or Hess would be
aceeptable to the people at large for
chairman of the board, if Bostwick
can be cast into the discard.

day shrouded the death of Mrs. Wal
ter B. Smith, wife of a LaSalle street

and plunged to her death In the wa
ter.
