NOTICE OF JUDGMENT NO. 502, FOOD AND DRUGS ACT.
ADULTERATION OF MILK.
On or about May 2, 1910, Lawrence B. Jones, of Dickerson, Md.,?
sold and delivered at the Union Station, Washington, D. C, a quantity?
of milk. Dr. William C. Woodward, health officer of the District of?
Columbia, acting by virtue of authority of the Secretary of Agri??
culture, caused a sample from the above delivery to be procured and?
analyzed. As the findings of the analyst and report made indicated?
that the milk was adulterated within the meaning of the Food and?
Drugs Act of June 30, 1906, the said Lawrence B. Jones was afforded?
an opportunity for hearing, and as it appeared after hearing held that?
this sale was in violation of the act, the said health officer reported?
the facts to the United States attorney for the District of Columbia.
In due course a criminal information was filed in the Police Court?
of the District of Columbia, charging that the said milk was adul??
terated, in that a substance, to wit, water, had been mixed and?
packed with it so as to reduce and lower its quality.
On June 8, 1910, the defendant entered a plea of guilty, and the?
court imposed a fine of $16.
This notice is given pursuant to section 4 of the Food and Drugs?
Act of June 30, 1906.
