Notwithstanding the objections which may be raised to the analysis 

 of samples taken without proper sampling equipment, the Station is dis- 

 posed to continue this work as long as there is evidence that it constitutes 

 a useful service. The samples so submitted should be drawn from at least 

 ten bags in a manner which will insure that the small lot sent for analysis 

 is as accurately representative as possible of the large lot from which it is 

 taken. Because of the cost of labor and materials, an analysis is not usu- 

 ally warranted on a sample drawn from less than a one-ton lot of feed. 



A one-pound sample is sufficient for the analysis. It should be sent in 

 a glass jar or tin box to prevent loss of fine particles or a change in the 

 moisture content. In order that the department may have a satisfactory 

 record of the sample analyzed, and may know whether or not the manufac- 

 turer and the dealer are complying with the requirements of the law, the 

 following information should be submitted concerning each sample.
