the varieties which with the Tall Oat-grass compose the percentage 

 of "'good" seeds, are indeed kinds of as great or even greater a 

 value than the Tall Oat-grass-itself, there is indeed nothing against 

 such lots of seed being sold under the name of that variety which 

 in appearance is by far the predominant-one, as has been the 

 habit from the very existance of the grass-seed trade. 



Therefore, to speak here as well as in the precedent cases of 

 "adulteration", which could easily be increased by many other 

 instances of equal force is, to deal with it gently, a misuse of 

 words !
