MILK FAMINE.
Situation Is becoming serious in Dos
ton-Lnck of Rain Makes Pastures
Dry.

With the milk supply running short,
forcing up the prices of butter, the far
mers throughout those portions of Mas
sachusetts and New Hampshire that
supply the Boston market with these
dairy products are facing a stll greater
shortage in their products on account
of the long continued dry spell. The con-
ditions were serious the latter part Of
August and the drought has not been
broken yet. A brief shower in isolated
places has brought but little relief. The
price of fancy butter is already IS cents
pound and the large dealers have had
much difficulty in securing enough cream
to meet the demand Their regular sour
ces OF supply fell short some time ago
and the wholesalers have had to go out
side their usual territory. In Worcester
county an advance in the price of milk
has been seriously considered. SO dry
have the pastures become that the
cows do not give nearly so much milk
as they did even week ago and In
many places the farmers have had to
drive the cattle long distances to water
them owing to the failure of their local
water supply.
