mercial or police regulation. It does not pro- 

 hibit or restrict the sale of misbranded or adul- 

 terated seeds. It simply provides for the dls- 

 seminntion of Information In regard to those 

 matters. It la true the effect of the informa- 

 tion 80 imparted may be to lessen the sale of 

 misbranded or adulterated seeds; but that is 

 not sufficient to transform a measure Intended 

 for the education and enlightenment of the 

 public into a regulation of commerce or police. 

 Such a view would prevent the Government 

 from publishing any Information whatever upon 

 the subjects of agriculture, manufacture and 

 <*ommerce, because the tendency of all such 

 information is to promote or restrict those pur- 

 suits.

So far as the statute in question Is concerned, 

 the sale, shipment and transportation of the 

 seeds mentioned remain entirely untrammeled. 

 It is jet for Congress in the exercise of Its 

 power over Interstate and foreign commerce, 

 and for the states, in the exercise of their 

 police powers, to regulate and control this mat- 

 ter within their respective Jurisdictions. A 

 bill was introduced at the second session of the 

 58th Congress (H. R. 9660) and reintroduced at 

 the present session of the 59th Congress (H. R. 

 4480) which In terms prohibits the Introduction 

 Into this country and the interstate shipment of 

 adulterated and misbranded seeds, and their 

 sale in the District of Columbia and the terri- 

 tories of the United States, and makes a viola- 

 tion of the act a misdemeanor, punishable by 

 fine and Imprisonment. Here, of course, is regu- 

 lation, and for that reason It is confined to sub- 

 jects within the Jurisdiction of Congress,

Doubtless but for the fact that Congress has 

 directed the name of the seller of the mis- 

 branded or adulterated articles to be published 

 no question would have arisen in respect to this 

 legislation. But that fact in no way alters 

 the character of the legislation. It still re- 

 mains a measure for the dissemination of useful 

 information In regard to seeds, the publication 

 of the name of the seller being only an Inciden- 

 tal matter. It is true the seller may in some 

 ciises be Innocent of any intentional deception. 

 Still he has sold misbranded seed, and the pub- 

 lication goes no further than to state that mere 

 fact. Besides, the question as to what informa- 

 tion shall be published about these investiga- 

 tions and experiments is entirely for the deter- 

 nilnatlon of Congress. I see no constitutional 

 objection, therefore, to your carrying out the 

 mandate of the law.
