Farmer Fined For Selling Bad Eyes In South Dakota
Pure Food Commissioner Cook and Deputy Otterness returned from inspections across the state. A local dealer was fined ten dollars and costs in justice court for offering Uncle Sam's Condition Powders not labeled per the stock food law. Another party was recommended for prosecution for a similar offense. A farmer near Vilas was fined ten dollars for selling rotten eggs. An error in the pure food law wording caused confusion, but enforcement remains intact.
