U. S. v. William Hussman.   Tried to a jury.   Verdict of guilty.   Fine, $100

ADULTERATION OF MILK.
On July 23, 1908, the United States Attorney for the Eastern 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 William Hussman, Hoffman, Ill., alleging 
shipment by said defendant, in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, 
on October 2, 1907, from the State of Illinois into the State of 
Missouri, of a quantity of milk which was adulterated.
Analysis of a sample of the product by the Bureau of Chemistry 
of this Department showed the following'results: Specific gravity, 
1.0265; total solids, 12.16 per cent; fat, 4.6 per cent; non-fatty solids, 
7.56 per cent. Adulteration of the product was alleged in the in- 
formation for the reason that it had water packed and mixed with it 
so as to reduce, lower, and injuriously affect its strength and quality, 
and for the further reason that water had been substituted in part 
for milk.
On November 30, 1908, the case having come on for trial before the 
court and jury, a verdict of guilty was returned by the jury and the 
court imposed a fine of $100 and costs.
