OIL ADULTERATION oFFENsE.


Notice Sent to Dealers Stating Terms
Under New Statute.
j. X. White, state pure food COM
missioner and sanitary inspector, has
issued to dealers of the state a notice
regarding the new law passed by the
last legislature relating to gasoline and
oils and their adulteration. The gov
ernor approved this law In the form Of
senate bill No. So. Commissioner
White considers the new law one Of
the most important and PURPOSES to see
that its provisions are rigidly enforced
so that adulterated gasoline and oil
will be kept out of the state.
The main provision of the law is
found In section 10, as follows:
That for the purpose Of this act an
article shall be deemed to be adulter-
ated: First-If any substance has been
mixed and packed with it SO as to re-
duce or lower or injuriously effect its
quality, purity or strength. Second
Ii any substance has been substituted,
wholly or In part, for the article. Third
III the article fail to conform to any
of the requirements of the standards of
quality, purity and strength adopted by
the bureau of mines of the United
States department of the interior. That
the term 'misbranded,' as used herein,
shall apply to all articles, the package
or label of which shall bear any state
ment, design or device regarding such
article, or the Ingredients or sub
stances contained therein, or the prop-
critics of such article which are false
or misleading In any particular what
sOever."
Proper Labelling.
This bill also provides for the proper
Labelling of gasoline and other oils as
follows:
Section 3. Gasoline, benzine, nap
tina, lubricating oil and grease, road
oil and fuel oil must be sold under
their true names and grades, respect
lively, and such names and grades must

sp1cuously and securely fastened there

the product, name and address of man.
ufacturer or dealer, who sells the
same"
The penalty for violating these pro-
visions is from $25 to $500 and Inspec-
tor White says he expects to conduct n
most strenuous campaign against adul-
terating gasoline dealers, some of whom
are already known to him and that the
dealers who handle a standard article
are Loyalty cooperating with the de-
partment in furnishing information and
evidence that will lead to the convic-
ton of the dealer who sells kerosene
mixed with gasoline for the genuine
article.
