From time to time there appears in the market some widely 
advertised food for poultry, claiming ‘remarkable virtues. 
Among such materials, one appeared several years ago under 
the attractive name of “red albumen.” Several samples were 
obtained. Some samples were found to be essentially dried 
blood of good commercial quality, while others were found to 
be the grossest frauds, containing little or no albumen and a 
great deal of mineral matter, usually red oxide of iron. These 
analyses are given below.
