NOTICE OF JUDGMENT NO. 2683. (Given pursuant to section 4 of the Food and Drugs let.) TJ. S. v. George Wittman. Plea, of 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 Agriculture, filed in the District Court of the United States for said district an information against George Wittman, Troy, Ill., alleging shipment by said defendant, in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, on Octo- ber 15, 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, 1.0292; total solids, 11.02 per cent; fat, 3.1 per cent; non-fatty solids, 7.92 per cent. Adulteration of the product was alleged in the in- formation for the reason that it had been watered, that is to say, had water packed and mixed with it and contained an excess of water, which reduced and lowered its strength and quality. On November 26, 1908, the defendant entered a plea of guilty to the information and the court imposed a fine of $100 and costs. B. T. GALLOWAY, Acting Secretary of Agriculture. WASHINGTON, D.
