FEAR MILK SHORTAGE.
Mason City Residents May Have to
Pay Ten Cents a Quart.

Special to Times Republican.
Mason City, May 12.-Many farmers
of this vicinity will cease to supply
milk for city consumers after June
1, because of a ruling Of the board OF
health, which requires that all cows
furnishing milk to city consumers
must undergo the tuberculin test. The
expense of the test and the prospect
of losing diseased cows is too much for
some of the farmers, and they will
cease to supply milk for city use. One
farmer said he knew ITO cows which
would no longer supply milk to the city
after June 1, the time limit for exam
nations set by the board of health
This new phase of the situation is sure
to result in a milk shortage in the
city, and resultant raise in the price
of the commodity. Residents of the city
are now looking forward with great
deal of alarm to a time when the
regular price for milk will be ten cents
a quart.
