TWO MILK DEALERS
GIVEN REPR|MANDS
Cautioned by Mayor That
Future Violation of Law
Means Heavy Fines.

Two milkmen, one of them a retail
er and the other a jobber who also
makes ice cream, were hailed before
the mayor this morning to answer al
legged violations of the state law re-
quiring purity of milk and milk pro-
ducts.
Both were let off with a reprimand,
as their guilt was not fully established.
The retail milkman who was arrested
and hailed before the mayor, was
charged with selling milk containing
90 per cent water He stated he had
purchased his milk of another man,
who sells milk to the retailers, and as
there was doubt as to who placed the
water in the milk, and the retailer had
never been in trouble before, he was
released.
The wholesale dealer, whose ice
cream was tested by dairy inspector
Flock and showed less than the requir-
ed amount of butter fat, stated he had
purchased the milk from a Hamilton,
O., company, and that as he had order
ed milk with 20 per cent cream, he did
not test it before using, trusting to
the honesty of the company to live up
to the contract. The milk contained
about thirteen per cent of butter fat.
The same wholesaler at Hamilton has
been guilty of this same practice be-
fore, Flock stated, and prosecution of
this company for violation of the state
regulations may be taken up by the
local dealer who alleges he was de-
frauded.
The mayor stated he would certain.
ly fine and fine heavily all dealers in
food commodities brought before him
for violations of the pure food laws.
Dairy Inspector Flock has received
a complete list Of the per centages of
the ten retail milk men and of the four
Wholesale dealers and ice cream mer-
chants. The average percentage of but
ter fat in the samples taken from the
| wagon Of the milkmen is above the re.
quirements of the law, which is 1926
per cent. The milk per centages were
| from "a to "A and the ice cream test.
ed showed per centages of butter fat
| from S.S to 10.

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET

NEW YORK, Dec. 2s.-The market
was dull and weak today. An effort
was made to bull at the opening by
working up prices in Liverpool. The
spot interests there in connection with
the bull clique working in that market
and here advanced prices or 4 points
before our market opened, but before
trading here could get well under way
liquidation for Wall street, Memphis
and local traders developed and sent
prices off to points. This was fol-
lowed by a rally in which all the early
loss was wiped out, but the failure of
anything else in the general situation
to bull the market on caused trading to
lapse into extreme dullness. Shortly
after l o'clock liquidation by some
large Wall street operators who were
induced by some of the bull leaders to
load up during the advance last week
came on the market. The selling of
this cotton found such poor buying
that prices broke 16 to IS points.
Southern spot markets continued dull
and reports from Memphis indicate
rather heavier ginning returns since
December 13 than had been predicted.
