3. Ossect oF THE Law. 
The object of the law is simply to require that the fertilizers 
offered for sale shall ccntain such ingredients and in such propor- 
tions as the manufacturer claims. No standard is prescribed by 
the law for the composition of a. commercial fertilizer. Hach 
manufacturer makes his own standard for each brand, the guarantee 
analysis showing what that standard is. The law proposes simply to 
see to it that the manufacturer shall keep his goods up to the iuigetics 
set by himself. 
4, Names or THz Manuracturers and Agents who have forwarded to 
_ the director of this station the names of the brands of commercial fertilizers 
manufactured or sold by them. (See section 2 of the law.) 
In the following list, it is deemed advisable, in order to avoid use- 
less repetition, to omit many names of agents of fertilizers manu- 
factured outside of the State, where the manufacturers themselves 
_- have forwarded the necessary information.
