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.

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.
