The suggestion of error stresses again the contentions reviewed in the former opinion and overlooks that the identity between the two activities involved was not adjudged solely upon their compatibility as related occupations, but also upon the relationship between the husband who, for all practical purposes, is in control of both establishments, and the wife who, though the legal owner, is only nominally the proprietor of the dairy. The record separation of the two activities was deemed not to have been sufficiently removed from mere formality to divest them of that unity of control and interest contemplated by the act.
It is next suggested that, even though the act in question is constitutional, a construction thereof which operates to include appellee within its provisions results in depriving him of the property without due process of law, and denies to him the equal protection of the law, contrary to Mississippi Constitution, Sec. 14, and the United States Constitution, Amend., Art. 14, Sec. 1. This contention was before the Court in considering this appeal and its decision was intended as a rejection thereof. Yet it is well to make specific reference thereto so that it may appear that the intepretation and application of the statute are held not violative of either the state or federal constitution.
Suggestion of error overruled. *Page 95
