vl MILK INSPECTOR MADE EARLY CALLS Secured Samples From Norwich Hotels and Restaurants— Analysis Showed Generally Good Quality of Fluid Dis- pensed—One Sample Strangely Rich in Butter Fat. Restaurants and hotels of the city have recently been receiving attention from the milk Inspector, Dr. D, J. Sha- han, who made some early morning calls, securing samples of mik which he has sent to the state laboratory for analysis. As a result of his activity he had a dozen eamples of milk to send in. From the report made from the state laboratory Dr. Shahan learn- | ed that much of the milk that is being dispensed is of very good gquality, but there was one sample that was found very plentifully watered. Another sample that was sent In evi dently puzzled the chemists somewhat. The report stated that this sample was ‘“‘either very good milk or very poor cream.” It showed 9 per cent. of but- terfat, which is about double the amount of butterfat expected in good milk. For this particular case the milk inspector believes he has an explana- tion which is suggested by some cir- cumstances which arose when he was obtaining the sample. His cali was made at such an early hour that he did not see the proprietor, but an em- plove who answered his ring at the bell said at first that they milk, but she thought they had some cream. She went away to get a sam- ple of cream, but when she returned ®aid she had found some milk and ave the inspector the sample he asked or. From the way the sample analyzed | the milk inspector figures it out that somebody made sure that the milk | €hould be rich enough by loading it up with some cream before passing out | the sample. 1 Another thing that the milk inspec- ! tor has inaugurated since he has held tae office has town Gealers who send cream here to take cut licenses. of milk I nses now issued in the city ls_about 150. Milk dealers who have attempted to sscape the net weight law, operative since Jan. 11, which provides that packages of food must be marked with the net weight, have lost another point in the fight for the exemption of their roduct since Attorney General Light as rendered an opinion that milk in | bottles.is a package and must be marked. A bill exempting milk from the provisions of the law is before the committee on public health and safe- ty and is to be reported soon. There now seems to be nothing for the milk dealers to do but wait for the result of this committee’s report on the bill The attorney general’s opinion on the matter is as follows: Hon. Hubert F. Potter, dairy and food commissioner, Hartford, Conn. Dear Sir: I have your favor in which you say: ‘Chapter 134 of the Public Acts of | ;:a general assembly of 1911 is as fol- eedl] Chapter 134.

Section 2—The terms “person” and | had no | 1 been to compel out-of- | The whole number | scribed by one of the large milk ‘deal- ers who pasteurized all of the milk sold by his firm. In his opinion the - nly practicable way of marking is to ‘ave the net contents blown in the ziass when the bottle is made. A cominittee appointed by an asso- ciatien of milk dealers therefore asks for a sdspension of penalties for two yrars in order te give time to use ‘the Stock of bottles already on hand food in package form. Will you state if in your opinion a bottle of milk is a package within the meaning of this sawute? W.li_you give Dr. Jenkins and my- seif a ruling on the above questions as soon as possible? 1 will answer your questions in_the ¢ider in which they are submitted. The dairy and food commissioner and tle director of the agricultural experi- ment statior have no authority to postpone in : .. manner the enforce- ment of the law in the case of particu- lar commodities, where immediate en- forcement seems to tc manufacturers and dealers. It is provided in Section 3 of the act that it shall take effect from its passage brrt the legislature has expressly de terred the enforcement of penalties for euy violation of Section 1 arising from ihe sale of food prepared and enclosed in paciage form pgior to 18 months aiter ihe passage of the act. The pas- sage of the act is the time when it has passed through both houses and re- cefved the sigznature of approval of the governor. (Johnston vs. Fay, 82 . 144, '145.) Therefore this act be said to have passed July 11, i911; and by adding 18 months to that date’ we get Jan. 11, 1913, the time from which penalties may be enforced. except for the sale of food and enclosed in package form prior to that time. sale of such packages no matter when made. The evident purpose of dela and to use months was to give manufacture: Cealers a reasonable opportunity up prepared and marked which they had on hand. I quite agree with the milk dealer, quoted by you tiat the only practicable way of mar} ing milk bottles is to have the net contents blown in the gl when the Lottles are made. It is lear from the language and pu of the act that a bottle of milk pose is_a ments of the law Section 3 provides that the ter food” as defined in Chapter 255 of tI public acts of 1907, with the excen tion of confectionery and shelled nu when offered for e is packa a price not exceeding 10 cents shall apply to the provisions of act in question.
