(5) Section 4 requires that each manufacturer shall file with the Food 

 and Dairy Commissioner a certified copy of the statement required to be 

 attached to his feeding stuff, and also a sample of each brand of his con- 

 centrated commercial feeding stuffs, together with the proper affidavit. 



(6) Upon feeding stuffs other than condimental stock foods an inspec- 

 tion fee of ten cents a ton must be paid and a tag stating that the inspec- 

 tion fee has been paid must be attached to the bags or packages. These 

 tags are to be furnished by the Food and Dairy Commissioner, in accord- 

 ance with the provisions of Section 5. Blank form for such statements 

 and affidavits will be furnished on request. 



(7) Local dealers are liable for the sale of feeding-stuffs not bearing 

 the statements and inspection tag required by the law and should insist 

 that feeding-stuffs sent them for sale be properly labeled and tagged. 



(8) This department can not undertake analyses for manufacturers 

 or dealers, but is required to make analyses for those who purchase for 

 their own use, and samples and applications for such analyses should be 

 accompanied by a copy of the statement attached to the feeding stuff. 

 Section 7 requires payment of a fee of one dollar for such analyses. 



(9) Tags will be issued in two forms: 



(a) Regular shipping tag form. 



(b) Gummed back paper form, suitable for attachment to such 



shipping tags as the manufacturer may be using. 

 The above forms of tags will be issued in denominations suitable for 

 use with 2.5, 50 and 100 pounds net. A tag suitable for use with ton lots 

 will also be issued, to be used with sales made direct to the consumer 

 under the proviso found in the last sentence of Section 5. 



CONDIMENTAL STOCK FOODS. 

 The definition of these foods is found in Section 3. A license of $100 

 a year is required from each manufacturer or importer of such foods, but 

 if this license is not paid by the manufacturer or importer it may be

 should therefore make sure that the license has been paid by the manu- 

 facturer before attempting to sell the same inside this State.

 ages of articles of this character. See also paragraphs (4) and (5) pre-
