It 100 many of these cases come up, there will be no probation sen tences, but the full fine imposed. | “proprietors of .restaurants and | hoarding houses who buy meat | they do not know whether is in pected or not, are just as guilty s the one selling it,” Dr. Hodgson said. ' “If a person who buys meat is | hot sure it is inspected, he should | call the health department, or get in touch with me to make sure,” pr., Hodgson said.
