MILK FAMINE FOR MUNCIE

Dairymen Declare Laws Are Driving Them Out of Business. Muncie, Ind., Aug. 24.—Rather than conform to the instructions of the state, city and county boards of health which failed to find a single dairy farm supplying milk to Muncie consumers that would stand the state test for sanitation, several dairymen will quit the business in this county. Bert Cohn, deputy state food and drug inspector, after visiting dairies near this city, announced that he would begin prosecutions if the dairies were not improved before he made a return visit.
