§ 152. Adulteration and sale of turpentine; notification of purchaser.

No person shall manufacture, mix for sale, sell or offer for sale under

the name of turpentine, spirits of turpentine, or wood turpentine or any

compounding of the word turpentine, or under any name or device

illustrating or suggesting turpentine or spirits of turpentine, any

article which is not wholly distilled or derived from resin, crude

turpentine gum, or scrapings from pine trees, and unmixed and

unadulterated with oil, benzine or any other substance of any kind

whatever, unless the package containing the same shall be stenciled or

marked, with legible black letters in the English language not less than

two inches high and one inch in width, "adulterated spirits of

turpentine." Nor shall any person, firm or corporation sell or deliver

such adulterated spirits of turpentine without informing the purchaser

at the time of sale that the article is not pure spirits of turpentine,

and the invoice shall accordingly read, "adulterated spirits of

turpentine." Every container in which such mixed or adulterated spirits

of turpentine is contained shall, in addition to the labeling before

memtioned, be marked or stenciled in legible black letters in the

English language, with the percentage of adulterant or adulterants which

are contained in such mixture.
