accompanied Moore to the pasture

CANNOT FIND ANY
MILK ORDINANCE
PROMOTERS OF TUBERcUlAR
sANITARIUM WOULD HAVE ALL :
DIARIES INSPECTED.

According to local and state oficials,
physicians and social workers there
is no state law nor city ordinance
which requires dairymen to make
tubercular test of their cows. The
matter Is entirely voluntary on their
part and few of Ottumwa's dairymen
do it.
This matter came out very plainly
today when social workers and ply
sicians were ordering milk to be sup
piled to a man who is stricken with
the greatly feared white plague. 1t
seemed decidedly paradoxical to be
ordering milk for tubercular man to
build him up when perhaps the milk
he was drinking contained tubercu-
losis germs. ....... s.G...
This case came up in connection
with the work which is gradually as
Stunning definite shape toward the erec-
ton Of a tuberculosis sanitorium Tor
Wapello county. The state law places
the power within the hands Of the
board of supervisors to order such an
institution established and then to
spend $4,000 to acquire, maintain and
equip it. The board meets next Mon
day and action is expected then.
