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 Berk- 

 shire Counties; Louis A. Graves in Norfolk, Bristol, Plymouth, Barnstable, and 

 Dukes Counties; and Joseph A. Bart in Essex, Middlesex, Suffolk, and Worcester 

 Counties. They visited 151 towns, took 1,176 samples, representing 220 brands, 

 from stock in the possessioii of 332 agents or owners, and called at 307 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 16,686 sacks, representing 8,739 tons of fertilizer. One 

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