ADULTERATION  OF MILK,
On August 30, 1912, the United States Attorney for the District 
of Connecticut, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, 
filed in the District Court of the United States for said district an 
information against Fred J. Appley, North Stonington, Conn., alleg- 
ing shipment by him, in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, on Sep- 
tember 8, 1911, from the State of Connecticut into the State of Rhode 
Island, of a quantity of milk which was adulterated. The product 
bore no label.
Analysis of a sample of the product by the Bureau of Chemistry 
of this Department showed the following results: Specific gravity, 
1.0335; total solids, 12.22 per cent; fat, 3.20 per cent; solids not fat, 
9.02 per cent. Adulteration of the product was alleged in the infor- 
mation for the reason that a portion of the fat had been wholly or in 
part abstracted or left out.
On September 6, 1912, defendant entered a plea of nolo conten- 
dere to the information and the court imposed a fine of $40.
