ANALYSIS OF KETCHUP.

just concluded a careful analysis Of Is
samples OF ketchups now on the local
market, AMI finds them free from i'm
purities. and containing only l-l0 OF !
per cent Of benzoate OF soda. which II
allowed by law. The samples cover an
OF the varieties on sale here. This graf
flying result Is due TO the agitation %

either have no pure food laws, or have
