 Mai^t Extract. 



Two samples of malt extract were examined, one in the 

 spring and the other in the fah of 1913. "Haskell- Adams 

 Extract. Five per cent alcohol by volume. A compound of 

 malt, hops and other medicinal ingredients. Prepared for 

 Haskell-Adams Co., New England Distributors, Boston, Mass. 

 Guaranteed by the Ebling Brewing Company" was found to 

 carry 4.7 per cent of alcohol by volume. 



"Liebigs Malt Tonic, a fermented extract from malt and 

 hops, contains five and a half per cent of alcohol by volume, 

 a pleasant and valuable tonic. This very agreeable preparation 

 combines the nutritive and readily assimilated properties of 

 malted barley with the well known bitter tonic qualities of 

 hops made and guaranteed by the Liebig Malt Extract Co., 

 Jersey City, N. J.," and other healthful claims. This was found 

 to carry 4.65 per cent o^f alcohol by volumie. 



Note. All correspondence relative to the inspection laws should be 

 addressed to the Commissioner of Agriculture, Augusta Maine.
