Under its provisions the retail dealer must pay an annual fee of eight dollars for the privilege of selling it, and the manufacturer a tax of onecent a pound for the privilege of making it. Moreover, the cheese must be stamped on the top and on the bottom and around the outside. Not only this, but the retailers must display outside or inside of their stores a sign in letters six inches in height: “Filled cheese sold here.” Disregard of the law is punishable with a fine of the cheese for each offense, It was stated during the debate relative to this act that in Dllinois alone there are 150 factories engaged in the making of filled cheese.

Under its provisions the retail dealer must pay an annual fee of eight dollars for the privilege of selling it, and the manufacturer a tax of onecent a pound for the privilege of making it. Moreover, the cheese must be stamped on the top and on the bottom and around the outside.
