(F. I. D. 8.) Notice to Importers of Liquid Egg Products

December 14, 1904.

This Department has made examinations of invoices of liquid eggs—yolk of egg, or white of egg, or the two together—offered for import into the United States. These food products have been uniformly found preserved with boric acid or borax, a substance which the investigations in this Department have shown to be injurious to health.

Notice is hereby given to importers that the Secretary of the Treasury will be requested to refuse admission of food products of this character consulated subsequent to December 15, 1904.
