SH1PPESS FINED |
FOR SHADING!1
Penalties imposed For Interstate
Shipment of Products
Labeled Wrongfully
MANY SHIPPERS CHARGED
WITH VARIOUS VIOLATIONS
Beverages, Intoxicating and
Otherwise, Feed and Medi- i
cine Were Included.
Many shippers charged by the Gov. (
ornment with the interstate shipmentj
of adulterated and misbranded foods!
and drugs have been fined various j
sums, according to a recent issue of;
the Service and Regulatory Announce
inents of the Bureau of Chemistry.
Beverages?-intoxicating and otherwise?stock
feed, patent medicines for
which the manufacturers claimed unwarranted
curative properties, mi!k,j
vinegar and butter are included in thej
list of articles which were alleged to j
i
be misbranded or adulterated within
the meaning of the Rood and Drugs
Act.
"Nonintoxicaiing" Beverages Coni>tin<>d
Ahxthol.
The Temperance Beverage Co., of
Chicago, III., was charged with the
shipment in interstate commerce of|
"Improved Cream of Hops" and "Hoi)
Tonic," which were misbrandod- The
former was labeled "A Nonintoxicating
Beer, Refreshing, Invigoroating.
Improved Cream of Hops, The Great
Health Drink. * * *" The "Hop
Tonic" was labeled "A Nonintoxicating
Temperance Beer Hop Tonic. * *
*" Analyses of these two drinks
showed each to contain over per
cent alcohol, thus rendering them intoxicating.
The defendant company in
this case pleaded guilty, and tiie court
imposed a fine of $200 and costs.
Stock Feeds Not Truthfully Labeled.
A quantity of stock feed, shipped
in interstate commerce by James
Emison and Scott Emison, members
of the partnership of J. and S. Emison
& Co., Vincenries, Ind., was alleged
to be misbranded for the reason that
the product was labeled "Crude Protein
12 Per Cent" and "Crude Fat 5
Per Cent," when, as a matter of fact,
it contained a lower percentage of
these substances. The labels also con
tainovl the statement that the product
was "compounded from the following
ingredients: corn, oats, alfalfa meal,
grain screenings and moiasses. Anoth
er ingredient, malted barley, had been
added and was not declared on the
label. In this case the court imposed
ix fine of $200 and costs.
A fine of $100 and costs was impos
ed against Darling & Co., Chicago,
111., for shipping in interstate commerce
a product known as "Darling's
Digester Tankage for Flogs," which
was misbrunded. The statment on
the tags attached to the bags in which
this article was shipped, "Five Per
Cent Crude Fat," and the statement!
"Fat Five Per Cent" on the bags,
were objected to as being false and
misleading, as the product contained
a much less amount of fat or crude
.fat than was claimed. Misbranding
was also alleged for the reason that
the statements Sixty Per Cent Crude
Protein" on the labels, and "Protein
Sixty Per Cent" on the bags were
false and misleading, as the article
did not contain this percentage of
protein or crude protein.
The Appache Cotton Oil & Manufacturing
Co., Chickasha, Oklu., were
charged with misbranding an inter
state shipment of cottonseed meal
and cottonseed cake. The cottonseed
meal was labeled to contain crude protein
41 per cent, crude fat 7 1-2 per
cent, crude fiber 9 per cent, but analysis
of the product showed that it contained
less crude protein and crudefat,
and more crude fiber, than stated
Oil the label. The cottonseed cake.
according to the label, contained ammonia
7 J -2 per cent to 8 1-2 per cent;
crude protein 41 per cent; crude fat
1 J-2 per cent; crude fiber 9 per cent;
but, a.s a matter of fact, it was shown
that the cottonseed cake was of an inferior
grade, and that the percentage
of ammonia, crude protein, and crude
fat was lower, and the percentage of
crude fiber higher, than stated on the
labels. A fine of $50 was imposed by
the court in this case.
Fraudulent Claims for Patent Medicine.
The misbranding of a quantity of
Dr. R S. Hutchinson's "Antiapoplectine"
brou^fit a *ln? of $50 to the incontinued

Unredeemed Canines Will Be j&
Put to Use of Re- ?
search. .. ik
(Evening Post.) ^
19
A new route into eternity has been *$1
established for. the vagrant canines of W
Charleston and instead of, as in the
t ftfj
past, being executed with a rifle bullet,
when unclaimed by owners after ^
three days of grace, dogs picked up
by the dog catcher will be devoted to JS;
the uses of medical science. Form^ly 3?
it was the custom to place the canines Si
BR
in a pound of three cages at the foot "
of Calhoun street. On their first day
of captivity, the dogs were penned in ||
cage No. 1 and spent their time In
yelping, fighting, eating and sleeping.
After 24 hours they were transferred /
to cage No. 2, and, perhaps impressed *
with the usual trend of events, fbe^
jgan
to look wistfully through the bars 1
of the cage at all who visited thf*^A
1 pound. On the third day they
! placed in the death cell, cage ^
: Here fffr 24 hours they awaitee^ VH
fading hopes the coming of a B
who in a majority of instances
showed up. All dogs unredeemed v
| ter 72 hours of captivity died facing f I
: the firing squad. .. .
j But now ;t is ditferent. Beginning I
J last Monday when the dog catcher ^
J made the first rounds of the season, '
the canines were sent to the Medical
1
I College, where already about 25 have ' \
i been assembled. At present they are I
j lodged in a special kennel and cared I
j for by the janitors of the college,>hut
! the authorities are planning to build
: a large and up-to-date pound near the
i West Point mill. Their purpose is to
use all unclaimed canines for research
work. ,
Instead of being shot after 72 hours
of captivity the dogs will be used to
test the effects of certain drugs ort
their systems, under observations
made by students. When there
more unredeemed dogs on hand than
the college can use, the canines will
be given ether. Development of the
plana may ultimately include a study
of rabies, which comes under the head
of research work. 1
The charge of $1.50 made for those
dogs redeemed will be retained hy the
college for helping to feed and oiire I
for the less lucky canines. A dog can
be redeemed from the pound on payment
of $1.50 only after a license is
presented at the oilicc of the Medical
College. The iicense costs $1. Dog
i owners who care anything about their
pets will not neglect to have a license
which is obtained from the city treasurer,
but the danger to licensed <lJ^?
lies in allowing them to run at large
unmuzzled on the streets.
