and from the few quarts of milk he can obtain from
one or two cows is endeavorng to make both ends
meet, but by the wholesale dealers who handle the
major part of the community's milk supply.
The men engaged in this reprehensible busi-
ness have no defence. They know what they are
doing and they do it with the deliberate intention
OF making money out of an article that has ceased
to be wholesome and healthful food and has be-
come by natural processes or has been made by
artificial mixtures, dangerous poison
For many years the great evil of milk adutera-
ton has been recognized and legislation to root it
out has been enacted in every state in the Union.
Here in Rhode Island the laws intended to accom-
plsh this desired and imperative result were recent
ly materially strengthened by the general assembly.
Nevertheless, the mischief has not been erad-
Gated. The statement of the milk inspector makes
it clear that dishonest and conscienceless dealers
are still foisting on the community as milk mix
ture that is menace to the health of the COM
munty.
Under the circumstances il would seem the
time for temporizing with this class OF offenders
against law, honesty and decency has passed, and
that the time for vigorous exposure and punishment
has come.
There is now law enough to hold these guilty
dealers to strict accountability for their misdoing
and it should be invoked for their severe and salu-
tary chastsement. The milk law can be enforced
both in letter and spirit, because it is supported By
the irresistible power of public opinion
Plainly, it is the duty OF the Inspector to begin
at once vigorous crusade against these offenders,
who have shown themselves SO callous and indffer-
ent to the public welfare; so rapacious that for a
slight increase of profits they ready to put in
ieoDardv the health of the verv persons whose
patronage makes them prosperous.
Every dealer whose milk is not up to the stand
ard should be promptly deprived of his license
and prosecuted to the full extent of the law No
lenency should be shown, no compromises should
be made
vigorous and rigorous enforcement of the
law against dishonest milk dealers is demanded bv
the people of this community in order that they
