jSTo. 4524, "01(1 Homestead Coffee," was composed entirely of 

 ground roasted cereals, and contained no coffee at all. No. 4672 was 

 branded "Roasted Coffee, Liizianne, Mocha and Java." It was 

 com]iosed of coffee and chicory, and the presence of the latter not 

 being shown on the label, under the Food Law, is an adulterant. No. 

 5076 was branded "Roasted Coffee, Luzianne, Mocha and Java," but 

 in small print over another ])art of the label the presence of the 

 chicory was shown. As the presence of chicory in this sample was 

 shown, though it was stamped over another part of the label, .it is not 

 classed as adulterated, but as misbranded and not properly labeled. 

 No. 5174 was branded "Shoop's Health Coffee," but the fact that it 

 contains no coffee at all was stated in plain type immediately below 

 the word "coffee." As it contains no coffee, this product should be 

 branded "Imitation Coffee" or "Coffee Substitute."
