Thi City Commission realizes
that number of people are trying
to raise hogs ard chickens on ac-
' count of Ilv' frnid sh-rtage con-

milk cows, and the City Com-
mission ha been rather denient
on account of the present food

infantile paralysis condition in the

citpelled to take every step to
eliminate wherever imssible all
hazards of this dreaded disease.
