OUTBREAK IN DAIRY HERDS. NO DANGER OF MILK INFECTION. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) AUCKLAND, April 28. The statement that city dwellers need not be afraid that the supply of milk will be infected because of the outbreak of facial eczema in dairy herds, was made by Department of Agriculture officials today. It was explained that eczema was not a contagious disease but dietetic, and could not be passed to humans. Another point was that as soon as a cow became infected it ceased to give milk. It was also stated that dairy inspectors were constantly covering the areas affected and watching herds.
