ADULTERATIoNS IN GERMAN
Even Fruits Are Contaminated and
Acids Abound in Many Ar
ticles of Diet.

According to report made to the
state department, DR.. III. Matthes, d.
rector of the bureau Office for examin-
ing foods of the University of Jena.
has published a statement relating to
the articles most frequently adulter-
ated. According to this statement,
$40 samples were examined in 1908
and 1869 in 1904. This number did
not include 116 samples of milk, which
were found to contain very high per-
centage of dirt.
Ii was found that apricots contained
sulphurous acid; effervescent lemon
AIDES did not contain trace of pure
fruit juices; butter contained too little
fat and too much water; so-called bak-
ing powder consisted of oleomargar-
inc; egg noodles contained no yolk of
eggs, or at least very small quantities.;
huckleberry juice was spoiled COM
pletely: raspberry Juice was greatly
diluted, and some samples contained
glucose and coal-tar dyestuffs; mince-
meat contained sulphurous acid;
ground mace contained flour, ground
toasted bread, Bombay mace and nut
meg: marmalades were mixed glu-
oose and colored with coaltar dyes;
milk was watered, skinned and often
very dirty; pepper contained lime,
sand and a good deal of the shell;
'sausages contained flour. boracic acid
and coloring matter preserving salts
contained sulphurous. boracic. fiouric
and benzoic acids, etc.
The report complains of the indif-
ference shown by the masses regard
ing purity and reliability of articles
of food, and the custom which prevails
in large cities of having the examina-
lions of such articles made by persons
not experts.
