The general results of the analyses made in the laboratory show 

 that there is a disposition among manufacturers to make their 

 products comply with the law. Adulterated linseed oil is practic- 

 ally eliminated from the state except in cases where the dealer 

 has purchased from mail order houses, who with rare exception 

 sell adulterated oil. The analyses of stock foods, especially cotton 

 seed meal, showed that many were falling below the guarantee of 

 the manufacturer. This information led to a proper adjustment 

 with the purchaser in practically every case. Several thousand 

 dollars were collected as rebates by Iowa farmers as a result of 

 our activities.
