ADULTERATION OF CREAM.
On or about February 26, 1910, John Irvine, of Culpeper, Va.,?
sold and delivered at the Union Station, Washington, D. C, a quan??
tity of cream. Dr. William C. Woodward, health officer of the?
District of Columbia, acting by 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 cream was adulterated within the meaning of the Food and?
Drugs Act of June 30, 1906, the said John Irvine was afforded an?
opportunity for hearing. As it appeared after hearing held that?
this sale was in violation of the said act, the said health officer?
reported the facts to the United States Attorney for the District of?
Columbia.
In due course a criminal information against the said John Irvine?
was filed in the Police Court of the District of Columbia, charging?
that the said cream was adulterated in that a valuable constituent,?
to-wit, butter fat, had been abstracted therefrom. On March 21,?
1910, the defendant entered a plea of guilty and the court imposed?
upon him a fine of $10.
This notice is given pursuant to section 4 of the Food and Drugs?
Act of June 30, 1906.
