No goods of this brand were found bj' 

 inspectors. 



Two oflacial samples were both up to guar- 

 antee in protein.' One was e.xamined for 

 fiber and fat and found in accord with 

 guarantee in both. In one sample no 

 weed seeds, were found; in the other a 

 few seeds of pigweed and mustard. 



Of 2 official samples, one was up to guar- 

 antee in protein, the other slightly below. 

 Both samples were misbranded in that 

 the fiber guarantee on the labels did not 

 agree with that or the filed certificate. 

 One sample was examined for fiber and 

 fat and found in accord with the certifi- 

 cate guarantee in both, but above the 

 fiber guarantee of 12 per cent, which the 

 label carried. One. sample was examined 

 for weed seeds; a few hulls of wild buck- 

 wheat were found. 



Two official samples both carried the 1914 

 certificate guarantees. Both were up to 

 guarantee in proteip. One was examined 

 for fiber and fat and was found in accord 

 with guarantee in fiber but 1 per cent, 

 low in fat. On the basis of the 1915 guar- 

 antees it would have been up in fat but 

 over 1 5 per cent, high in fiber. One sample 

 was examined for weed seeds; a few 

 seeds each of wild buckwheat, mustard 

 and giant ragweed were found. 



The only official sample obtained was found 

 in accord with guarantee in protein and 

 fat and practically so in fiber.
