of pepper in which the la ger per cent
was pepper sbells, eocoanut shells,
olive pits, and buckwheat flour.
The address was attentively listened
to, and many questions were asked,
which the speaker briefly answered.
in the first question he was asked
to tell something about denaturized
alcohol.
He briefly stated it's utility and
cheapness, and some OF the ways in
which its usefulness would be most
satisfactory.
A number of questions we're asked
in regard to the coloring of butter and
the different brands OF coloring mat
ter on the market, especially Wells
& Richardson's which seems to be
most largely used.
He gave the composition of different
brands, some are much more injuri-
ous than others, principally the con
stituents are the coal-tar dyes, recon-
mended none, saying there would be
no infringement Of the law II the
proper food was fed to the COW which
was the right way, and the butter
should then be the right color. Said
the addition of carrots to the cream
was the least injurious and unhealthy
of probably anything to add color to
butter.
Denounced the use of sodium sui
phate and other injurious meat pre-
servatives.
How about Duffey's malt whiskey
which is advertised so largely as q
medicine or medicated whiskey?
we4 have it analyzed to know if IL
is a medicine. Twelve chemists re-
ported no medicinal properties. The
iirm has promised to sell it only un-
Ger license.
About Bromo- -Seltzer?
1t contains largely acid tanaline,
ana its ingredients should caution
persons as to its use.
About Vita-Ora?
Yes, it is made up of EPSON salts
and Munson salts, barrel costs about
so cents.
The customer buys a small package
of the mixture for which he pays one
dollar with directions to dissolve in a
quart of water. He has a quart OF
medicine for his dollar, and probably
wonders how some people get rich.
Tell us about manufactured coffee,
and adulterated sugar?
In the few last years we have not
come across any manufactured coffee
berry. OF the samples OF sugar eN-
AHMED we have not found in granLl-
ated sugar any adulterations.
Tue time having arrived for Mr..
Ankeny to leave, the audience tender
ed TO him vote of thanks.
