CANNABIS - HOME BREW PACKAGE

Note that according to the DEA in 1917[1b] (known as the “Bureau of Chemistry” back then), the contents were also used by “Mexicans and whites of the lower classes” for smoking purposes. And according to the label, it could be taken straight for . . . . . however its obvious purpose was for mixing and brewing at home.
