A study of the figures showing the results of the inspection 
up to May 3 reveals the fact that the samples representing quite 
a large number of brands contained considerably less protein 
than called for by guarantees. In all, at least, fifty-two samples 
showed a larger deficit than would be regarded as reasonable. 
The deficit occurred as follows:

One brand, licensed as cottonseed meal, sold by the Husted 
Milling and Elevator Co., of Buffalo, N. Y., and recorded as 
manufactured by R. W. Biggs & Co., of Memphis, Tenn., was 
found to contain only 21.8 per ct. of protein whereas the mini- 
mum guarantee was 41 per cent. 
The material was evidently cottonseed feed, or cottonseed meal 
mixed with ground hulls. Such a feed is fraudulent in its 
character.
