prosecuted either by the Director of the Station under the 

 State Statute, or by the Federal authorities under the Pure 

 Food and Drugs Act. Several lots of goods were found running 

 below guarantee where the amount in stock was so small as to 

 render prosecution inadvisable. Notice however, was sent to 

 dealers and where goods remained in stock after the analysis was 

 completed, the dealers were asked to retag with correct guarantees. 



The consumer should bear in mind that the guarantee does 

 not of necessity imply quality, and that it is simply in- 

 tended as a guide to the purchaser. Inferior goods may be 

 legally sold if correctly guaranteed. 



Contrary to our usual custom, no general attempt has been made 

 to discuss the commercial values of the different feeding stuffs, 

 as conditions are so uncertain as to render statements which may 

 be true at the present time of Uttle value later in the year. In 

 general it may be said that the carbohydrate or starchy feeds, 

 such as corn meal, hominy and the like, have been relatively higher 

 in price than the protein concentrates such as cottonseed meal, 

 linseed meal and gluten feed. If this condition continues, the 

 dairyman will do well to feed maximum amounts of the latter 

 products using as small amounts as possible of the cereal meals.
