"Certified" Colors may be used in food without objection from the Department of Agriculture, provided the use of the color in food does not conceal damage or impurity. "Uncertified" coal-tar dyes are likely to contain arsenic and other poisonous materials, which, when used in foods, may render them injurious to health and therefore adulterated under the law. All "NATIONAL" Food Colors manufactured by the National Aniline & Chemical Company, Inc., are "Certified" to government formulae and approved by the Bureau of Chemistry, United States Department of Agriculture, thus insuring the trade a pure and uniform product. Because .of their superior quality, "NATIONAL" Certified Food Colors are used by the most particular producers of food stuffs, confectionery, beverages and ice cream. "Primary" or basic colors, when certified, are made according to government specifications or formulae. "Secondary" shades or blends are combinations of primary colors, but the importance of their also being certified is too frequently overlooked. "NATIONAL" secondary shades are actually certified as such. In other words, the original primary colors are certified to govern- ment requirements and the final secondary shades or blends are again certified. Strength in "Certified" Food Colors means economy in use. Brilliancy of color insures attractive appearance in food products. Uniformity in our product means uniformity in the color of food stuffs and prevents the necessity of changing recipes.

NATIONAL CONCORA - Certified Deep Grape Shade NATIONAL PERIGEE - Certified Grape Shade NATIONAL PLUMNA - Certified Plum Shade NATIONAL NOKA - Certified Chocolate Shade NATIONAL RANA - Certified Coffee Shade NATIONAL NUTTA - Certified Nut Brown Shade All the Primary Colors (with the exception of National Yellow AB - Certified and National Yellow OB - Certified), and all the Secondary Colors are soluble in water. National Yellow AB - Certi- fied, and National Yellow OB - Certified, are oil soluble, and are used for coloring food products such as butter, oleo-margarine and cheese. Suggestions for the use of "NATIONAL" CERTIFIED FOOD COLORS Use sufficient soft water (preferably distilled) to completely dissolve the color. This quantity will vary from three to eight ounces of color to one gallon of water according to the type. Stir the mixture until solution is complete. The application of heat facilitates dissolving. Boiling violently is unnecessary. Raise the temperature from 150 to 180 degrees Fahrenheit, stirring continuously until color is completely dissolved. The use of high open flames is to be avoided because of the danger of overheating the container and scorching the color on its exposed portion. Careful observance of the above will avoid the appearance of particles or moats of undissolved color which sometimes float in the solution for several hours. The difficulty of undissolved portions may also be overcome by first preparing the dry color into a smooth paste by mixing with cold water and stirring thoroughly in order to completely wet every particle of color. If this is done, a clear, uniform solution can be obtained. <&ORsy NATIONAL ANILINE fcf CHEMICAL CO., Inc. The use of porcelain, good quality enamel, or glassware is recommended. Avoid use of metals. For storage of solutions, similar ware is preferable, but clean cypress tanks or stout oak barrels may be used, provided they are kept scrupulously clean. Solutions kept in storage should be protected from direct sun- light, dust, dirt and contamination. Evaporation should be pre- vented. When sugar or other fermentable substances are added, the usual precautions must be observed to prevent fermentation or decom- position. Change of color in a solution may be taken as an indication of either condition in some form, due to the color being affected. Fre- quently the addition of any common or approved preservative, such as benzoate of soda, will prevent fermentation, etc. Solutions prepared and handled according to the foregoing directions and not exposed to harmful influences, may be kept indefinitely. Stock solutions of National Yellow AB - Certified, or National Yellow OB - Certified, may be prepared by dissolving the color in the ratio of four ounces of color to one gallon of olive or cotton-seed oil at about 150° F. VI NATIONAL ANILINE fcf CHEMICAL CO., Inc. <% L S S> EXPLANATORY When examining this card, please ob- serve that there are three ways of looking at the colors. (1) By ho/ding the card as you would hold a regular book. (2) By holding a color-page to the light (for clear liquid tests, for instance). (3) By holding both a color -page and one of the plain interleaves, pressed together, to the light (for the purpose of observing semi- transparent conditions). By one of these three methods it is found that almost any effect desired may be vis- ualized.
