other dairy products received at such station or establishment, and if milk so received is delivered to such station or establishment at two regular periods each day, namely, in the morning and at night, then such daily record must separately show such receipts of milk at each of such periods. Any person or persons having charge of any milk gathering station or establishment as aforesaid shall also keep a true and correct daily record of all sales or shipments of milk, cream and dairy products shipped or sold from such station or establishment, and of all pure milk, skim milk and cream which at the end of the day remains on hand at such station or establishment to be used, shipped or otherwise disposed of on following days, and shall keep a true and correct daily record of the cream there produced by skimming or artificial separation and the amount of milk used therefor, also the amount of other dairy products there manufactured, and shall also keep a full, true and correct daily record of all skim milk there received and of all skim milk there produced by such separation or skimming at such station or establishment, and of the sale, shipment, use or disposition of the same, and each separate sale or shipment of skim milk therefrom with the name and address of each person to whom the same is so shipped or sold and the quantity of the same so shipped or sold to each of such persons. Which record shall be preserved at such station or establishment for at least two years after the same shall have been made and such records shall at all times be open to the inspection of the commissioner of agriculture, his assistants or agents. The commissioner of agriculture may prepare and supply to persons in charge of such milk gathering stations or establishments blank forms upon which to make such daily records, upon application for the same. When cream is sold or shipped from any such station or establishment so selling or shipping milk for consumption as aforesaid, each bottle or package of one quart or less of cream so shipped or sold shall bear a label securely attached to the side of such bottle or package on which shall be conspicuously printed the word "cream" in black letters of at least one-fourth of an inch in length or else the word "cream" shall be blown in the side of such bottle in plain raised letters of at least one-half an inch in length, and the top and side of each and every other package or can containing cream or crate or case containing bottles of cream so shipped or sold shall bear a label securely attached on which shall be conspicuously the word "cream" in black letters of at least one inch in length and also a plainly written or printed statement on the label stating from whom and what station the same is shipped and the name of the consignee and appointed destination and the date on which the cream therein was produced by such separation or skimming. The shipment of each and every such package of cream so shipped and not so labeled as herein required shall constitute a separate violation. When cream is so separated or skimmed from milk at any such station or establishment and the supply of milk on hand thereat at the time of the next regular daily shipment of milk therefrom, consisting of the total amount of milk in such shipment, together with that remaining on hand immediately after such shipment is not thereby decreased or correspondingly less than the total quantity received during any period extending from some point of time before such skimming was done until the time of such shipment, together with the amount of milk on hand at the commencement of such period, and such decrease if not equal in amount to the quantity of milk that must have been used in so separating such cream in addition to the quantity otherwise there used or disposed of during such period, such fact is conclusive that skim milk or other foreign substance was added to such milk supply-within such period and shall be presumptive evidence within the meaning of this section that the same was added to each can or

vessel of milk in such shipment. When cream or skim milk is found to have been on the premises of any such station or establishment or is sold or shipped therefrom, such cream or skim milk so found or so sold or shipped therefrom shall be presumed to have been produced by separating or skimming at such station or establishment. In any action or proceeding relative to the adulteration of milk by removing cream therefrom or adding skim milk or other foreign substance thereto, it shall be presumed that when cream has been produced by so skimming or separating, or butter has been manufactured, there was used at least five quarts of milk in the production of each quart of cream so produced and there was necessarily so produced thereby at least four quarts of skim milk to each quart of cream so produced, and that there was used at least nine quarts of milk in the production of each pound of butter so manufactured. If any such person so duly licensed shall thereafter refuse or neglect to keep and preserve full and complete record as herein required or shall refuse to exhibit such records to the commissioner of agriculture, his assistants or agents or shall violate any of the provisions of this section or any of the provisions of the agricultural law relative to milk or the products thereof he shall forfeit his license and shall be disqualified for a period of five years from being again licensed by the commissioner of agriculture. The commissioner of agriculture shall have the power to subpœna or subpœna duces tecum, issued and attested by him in his official capacity to require the attendance and testimony before him, or any of his assistant commissioners, of any person or persons, whom he may have reason to believe has knowledge of any alleged violation of the agricultural law, and the production, before him or any of his assistant commissioners of agriculture of any records, books, papers and documents for the purposes of investigating any alleged violation of the agricultural law. Such subpoenas or subpoenas duces tecum may be served by any person over the age of twenty-one years. No person shall be excused from attending and testifying or producing any records, books, papers or other documents before said commissioner of agriculture or any of his assistant commissioners of agriculture upon such investigation upon the ground or for the reason that the testimony or evidence, documentary or otherwise, required of him may tend to convict him of a crime or subject him to a penalty or forfeiture, but no person shall be prosecuted or subjected to any penalty or forfeiture for or on account of any transaction, matter or thing concerning which he may so testify or produce evidence, documentary or otherwise, and no 'testimony so given or produced shall be received against him upon any criminal action, investigation or proceeding. Any person or persons who shall omit, neglect or refuse to attend and testify or to produce any records, books, papers or documents, if in his power so to do, in obedience to such subpoena or subpoena duces tecum shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Any person who shall wilfully and knowingly make any false statement under oath before the commissioner of agriculture, or his assistant commissioners of agriculture concerning a material matter, shall be guilty of perjury. The commissioner of agriculture and his assistant commissioners of agriculture are hereby authorized and empowered to administer oaths and affirmations in the usual appropriate forms to any person or persons in any matter or proceedings authorized as aforesaid and in all matters pertaining or relating to the agricultural law and to take and administer oaths and affirmations in the usual appropriate forms, in taking any affidavit or deposition which may be necessary or required by law or by any order, rule or regulation of the commissioner of agriculture for or in connection with the official purposes, affairs, powers, duties or proceedings of said commissioner of agriculture or his assistant commissioners of agriculture or any official purpose

All cans, or receptacles used in the sale of milk, cream or curd for consumption, or in transporting or shipping the same to market or the delivery thereof to purchasers for consumption as human food, when found by the commissioner of agriculture or his assistants or agents to be in unfit condition to be so used by reason of being worn out, badly rusted, or with rusted inside surface, or unclean or unsanitary or in such a condition that they cannot be rendered clean and sanitary by washing, and will tend to produce or promote in milk, cream or curd when contained therein, bad flavors, unclean or unwholesome conditions favorable to unhealthfulness or disease, shall be condemned by the commissioner of agriculture or his assistants or agents.

When any such milk, cream or curd is sold within any city of this state or shipped into any such city, the fact of such shipment or sale shall be prima facie evidence that the same was so shipped or sold for consumption as human food. When any such can or receptacle is returned or delivered or shipped to any person or creamery so selling such substance within, or shipping the same into any such city, it is deemed that such can or receptacle is liable to such continued use in so selling or shipping such substance therein for consumption as human food within the meaning and purposes of this and the preceding sections. No person shall place or suffer to be placed in any such can or receptacle any sweepings, refuse, dirt, litter, garbage, filth or any other animal or vegetable substance liable to decay and tending to produce or promote an unsanitary condition, nor shall any such consignee or other person through himself, his agent or employe, bring or deliver to any person or railroad or other conveyance any such can or receptacle for the purpose of such return, or any milk, cream or curd can or receptacle for the purpose of delivery or shipment to any person or creamery engaged in so selling or shipping such substances for consumption as human food, which can or receptacle contains such particles of milk, cream or curd, or such other substance as is herein prohibited from being placed therein. The word "curd" as used in this and the preceding section applies to the substance otherwise known as "pot cheese" or "cottage cheese." Whenever any such

can or receptacle is used, returned, delivered or shipped in violation of this section, or of section thirty-two-a of this chapter, every such use, return, delivery or shipment of each such can or receptacle shall be deemed a separate violation thereof. Such cans or receptacles so used, returned, delivered or shipped in violation of this section or of section thrty-two-a may be seized by the commissioner of agriculture, his assistants or agents and held as evidence of such violation. For the proper enforcement of this section and section thirty-two-a the commissioner of agriculture may appoint two milk can inspectors to be stationed chiefly in the city of New York who shall receive the usual compensation of other agents of the department of agriculture.-Added July 18, 1907; Laws of 1907, vol. 2, ch. 610, pp. 1432-1434.
