[There is no provision for gratuitous and official disinfection.] 1 (1-5) — 4 — [Two grave defects in this clause as it stands in each Act are, (1) that the M.O.H. must after inspecting the dairy prove that disease has actually been caused thereby, thus neglecting the pre- vention of disease recognized in the new phrase of ' * a nuisance or injurious or dan- ger oils to health, so that he could not close a dairy at which diphtheria or scarlatina existed before the disease had extended to the consumers ; and (2) that the sale of the 'condemned milk is permitted anywhere except in the par- ticular district [The first is probably an inadvertence, and the words *' likely to be caused might be read in from above, but the second is plain enough.
