MILK WILL COST
MORE At FARM,
NOT TO USERS

The milk contractors OF this city will
probably have to pay higher price %
the farmers for their milk during the
coming winter. The price to consumers.
however will remain the same as now.
Inspector Walter o. Scott in discussing
the matter today stated that the reason
for the expected increase I'm the retail
price i'm Boston is a new law which COM
pels the farmers to ice their milk the
year round and to exercise greater care
Swith their farms than heretofore.
The same regulations will be enforced
here; but the increased cost to the dealers
will not be large enough to warrant an
increase in the retail price.

the suns rays of this sandy desert.
The entire country here is simply

means death.
