There are not enough |mstrurizmg‘ plants here to take care of the sup- {ply and it is with difficulty that the | city is now being supplied with Grade A milk, meeting the requirements of the ordinance. It was granted by the | board of control that New Britain, by | reason of the exiftance of this ordin- ance, faces the most serious problems {and this city's needs should be the | first taken care of. The work of test- | ing herds will be started within a few days, Dr. Pullen said this morning. | Musician Dead, Leaving | The Cause Unexplained Stamford, I'eb, 1,-—~George H.
