(Given pursuant to section 4 of the Food and Drugs Act.)
U. S. v. Charles Goetz.     Plea ot guilty.     Fine, $100 and costs.
ADULTERATION OF MILK.
On June 1, 1908, the United States Attorney for the Southern Dis- 
trict of Illinois, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agricul- 
ture, filed in the District Court of the United States for said district 
an information against Charles Goetz, Formosa, Ill., alleging ship- 
ment by said defendant, in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, on 
October 15, 1907, from the State of Illinois into the State of Mis- 
souri, of a quantity of milk which was adulterated.
Adulteration of the product was alleged in the information for 
the reason that it had packed and mixed with it water, that is to say, 
it contained an excess of water, and it was further adulterated in 
that it had been skimmed and a valuable constituent thereof had 
been abstracted, that is to say, a portion of the fat had been ex- 
tracted and removed from the product, which lowered and reduced 
its strength and quality.
On December 1, 1908, the defendant entered a plea of guilty to 
the information and the court imposed a fine of $100 and costs.
C. F. MARVIN, 
Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
