DRAWING OF SAMPLES 



Between April 1 and June 15, three sampling agents made a thorough canvass 

 of the state: James T. Howard in Hampshire, Hampden, Franklin, and Berkshire 

 Counties; Louis A. Graves in Norfolk, Bristol, Ph mouth, Barnstable, and Dukes 

 Counties; and Comfort L. Whiting in Essex, Middlesex, Suffolk, and Worcester 

 Counties. They visited 147 towns, took 1,460 samples, representing 382 brands, 

 from stock in the possession of 360 agents or owners, and called at 279 places 

 where no samples were drawn because the agency had been discontinued, the 

 stock was all sold out, or sufficient samples had already been taken of the brands 

 found. They sampled 17,589 sacks, representing 7,243 tons of fertilizer. One 

 ton was sampled to every nine and seven-tenths tons sold in the state.
