Microscopic Examination 



During the past year particular attention has been paid to those feeds 

 which experience has shown might be adulterated, or not in accordance with the 

 guarantee of ingredients. Substitution appears to be practiced to a greater 

 extent by local mixers and small manufacturers, not always, however, with the 

 intent to defraud, but on account of the difficulty sometim;s exper'enced in 

 obtaining the ingredients guaranteed. 



In one instance it was found that a manufacturer who held the contract 

 from a cooperative was substituting brewers grains for distillers grains in the 

 dairy mixtures, and also using a cooked cereal residue in place of wheat bran. 

 While the feeding value of the feeds was not materially reduced, cheaper products 

 were being substituted for more valuable ones, a cash saving which should have 

 reverted to the consumer rather than to the benefit of the manufacturer. After 

 receiving a cash settlement, the cooperative severed its relations with this manu- 

 facturer and placed its contract elsewhere. 



In several instances this same manufacturer was found to have substituted 

 a cooked cereal residue for wheat bran in his own line of feeds. 



One dealer was found to have substituted an oat residue, wholly or in part, 

 for ground oats in a poultry mash mixed to customer's order. 



Feedstuffs on the whole appeared to be true to their ingredient guarantees.
