TO See If the Gr0cers Hive Up to She
 Law.
 Yesterday morning Deputy Collectors Davis and Higgins started out to visit all the gro- cery stores in the city and buy butter so as to see what dealers are living up to the law. The internal revenue collector has been or- dered to send out all his deputies on these expeditions This has been done because the dealers all know Dairy Commissionsr Tatem and generally know when he comes around. There are many dealers who are not living up to the law. All the butter that is collected will be sent to Hartford for analysis and the results reported to the collectors. All the deputy col Iectors in the State were out yesterday and Connecticut was pretty thoroughly covered. what the Champion Pedestrian Says.
