Regulation 7. Guaranties, changes in, after registration. A guaranty 

 and label for a brand of feed having been registered may not be subsequently 

 modified in a way that permits the lowering of the quality of the feed, unless 

 it can be clearly shown that the modification sought to be made is consistent 

 with the interest of the feeder. 



It is provided, however, that the ingredients of a feed mixture may be 

 changed after registration on presentation of satisfactory reasons if such a 

 change does not necessitate a lowering of the guaranteed analysis or quality of 

 the feed. 



Regulation 8. Registration, general application of. A guaranty registered 

 by a manufacturer or jobber for a brand of feed is held to apply to such a 

 brand, even though manufactured at or shipped from more than one point. 



"When a guaranty and label have been registered by a manufacturer or by a 

 jobber, no registration shall be required of other sellers of the brand so reg- 

 istered, provided shipments thereof are labeled in accordance with the law and 

 regulations. 



Regulation 9. Registration, Cancellation. The following causes are held 

 to be sufficient to justify the cancellation of registrations: 



(a) When the brand name of the feed is found to be misleading in any 

 respect. 



(b) When found to contain an injurious ingredient. 



(c) When packages are incorrectly labeled with regard to ingredients. 



(d) When the analyses of samples establish the fact of misbranding or 

 adulteration. 



(e) When labels on packages contain any statement, design or device 

 which tends to mislead the purchaser. 



Regulation 10. Brand Names, duplication of or infringement on. A 

 brand name is distinctive with reference to the feed to which it applies, and 

 the registration of feeds under the same brand name by two or more manu- 

 facturers or shippers shall be discouraged. This regulation applies also to the 

 registration of brand names so similar in character as to be likely to be confused 

 by the purchaser. 



If the same brand name, or a closely similar one, is offered by another, 

 the official should acquaint both of such persons or firms with the facts, with 

 the view of avoiding the confusion which follows the duplication of brand names. 



Regulation 11. Brand Names. The name of a brand must not tend to 

 mislead the purchaser with respect to any quality of the feed. If the brand 

 name indicates that the feed is made for a specific u.se, the character of the feed 

 must conform therewith. A mixture labeled "dairy feed," for example, must 

 be adapted for that purpose. 



A brand name may not be derived from a single ingredient of a mixture. 

 A distinctive name shall not be one representing any single component of a 

 mixture. 



Regulation 12. Ingredients' statement. The following regulations ap- 

 ply to the statement of ingredients on labels and on registration: 



(a) Each and every ingredient in the feed mixture must be stated; see 

 paragraph (e) in Regulation 9. 



(b) The common English names of ingredients are to be used. 



Regulation 13. Inert Mineral Matter and Charcoal in Feeds. In the 

 case of feeds containing inert grit, other added inert mineral matter, or char- 

 coal, the words "with grit," "with charcoal," etc., must occur in the brand 

 name, and in the statement of ingredients the kind and amount of grit or other 

 added mineral matter, charcoal, etc., must be given; provided that not more 

 than a total of five per cent of grit, charcoal, and/or other mineral or inert
