MILK DEALERS HAVE BEEN GIVEN WARNING

Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 28. Warnings have been sent to 341 milk dealers and restaurant men throughout the state that they must comply with state pure' food laws, I. L. Miller, state food and drug, commissioner, announced yesterday. The warnings followed a survey made by the department. Of the samples analyzed by the department, 46-1 per cent were deficient in -butter fat, Mr. Miller said. The examination of laboratory results on the samples examined showed that there is practically no difference in thtf price paid for milk of good quality and that of inferior quality, according to Mr. Miller. So-called <‘coffee creams” and “half and half” are in many instances far below state requirements, the tests showed.
