OLIVE OIL NOT ADULTERATED
Government Officials Correct Rumor
That Much Impure Oil Is I'M
ported to This Country.

Following the receipt Of several in
| quiries as to whether a large part OF
| the olive oil imported into the United
States is adulterated with cottonseed
oil, the department of agriculture has
made a special investigation into the
/ condition Of the olive oil admitted
| The governments interest in the mat
ter is twofold-frst, to protect the
people from getting adulterated olive
oil; second, to protect the reputation
producers in California, Arizona and
other olive growing sections,
Since 1900 the department Of agri-
culture through its various port labor
atories. has examined samples from
2,149 importations Of olive oil. Of
these only ten were refused entry and
only three Of these were refused entry
for containing cottonseed oil. The
cottonseed oil authorizations date back
to 1903. when two shipments were
found to be adulterated. and 1909,
when one shipment was found to be
adulterated. Since that time there
has been no shipment which has Civ
en- evidence of cottonseed oil adultera-
ton.
In 1910 seven shipments OF olive oil
were refused admission because adul-
terated with peanut oil. and since that
time there have been no cases discov-
cred of either cottonseed oil or peanut
oil adulteration.
The addition of cottonseed oil to
olive oil. the government specialists
report, is very easily detected. Indi-
cations therefore are that all olive
oil admitted to the country and brand
ed as olive oil has been pure olive
oil, and has contained no cottonseed
or peanut oil. Occasionally the gov
eminent discovers shipments Of sar-
dimes in which the olive oil contains
some cOttonseed oil.
The experts point out that it would
be illogical for the importer to bring
into this country olive oil adulterated
with cottonseed oil. and pay duty OF
so cents gallon on the cottonseed oil
that is contained in the mixture. Sim
ilary, nut oils are admitted under the
tariff act, and the specialists say that
it would be absurd for an importer to
bring from Holland olive oil adulterat-
ed with peanut oil, and pay duty OF
so cents a gallon on the mixture,
when he could bring them over sep
arately and avoid paying any duty on
the nut oil
