Section 41 deals with articles of food. What does " butter which is dirty " mean?

I am afraid that is one of those troubles like defining stale milk. It is a question of fact.

Does it mean intrinsically dirty or dirtied by falling on the road?

Any foreign matter.

Would it go to a jury?

No, to a District Justice.

Would butter with a good many hairs be dirty?

Any foreign matter. You cannot prescribe the standard. The District Justice would have to decide for himself.

It is a question of degree. I have an amendment here in Section 41: " Immediately after the words ‘ sale,' in line 28, to insert the words ‘ or exchanges or barters or for the purpose of resale acquires by purchase, exchange or barter.'"

What is the idea of bringing in barter?

There is a lot of barter done in butter.

It looks rather formidable but it is not.

Amendment accepted and passed.
