to do 80, after discovering the inferior 

 character of the seeds he should reduce 

 the amount of his damage, if possible, 

 by procuring suitabFe seed; the law will 

 not allow him to stand idly by and un- 

 necessarily permit a total or partial crop 

 failure and then assert a claim against 

 the seller of the seed for the amount of 

 that loss. And if, on discovering that 

 the seeds contain noxious weed seeds, 

 though they have already been planted, 

 the loss can be minimized by plowing 

 the weeds under, or by pursuing any 

 other reasonable course, he must do so, 

 or shoulder the loss resulting from fail- 

 ure so to do. (New York Supreme 

 Court, Appellate Division; Bell vs. 

 Mills, 74 New York Supplement 224.)

ECONOMY MAKES LAWBREAKERS. 



As a result of the refusal of the 

 Michigan legislature last year to ap- 

 propriate more than $2,000 to carry 

 out the new pure seed law, dealers in 

 that state are forced to be lawbreakers. 

 Seeds cannot be sold without an analy- 

 sis of them having first been made by 

 the seed inspection department at the 

 agricultural college. About one-fifth 

 only of the 100 requests for analysis 

 pouring in daily can be cared for. So 

 if the seedsmen do not wish to wait in- 

 definitely for a report and, in the mean- 

 time, see their market vanish, they 

 must break the law and sell their seeds 

 without an analysis. Such is the wise 

 economy of lawmakers!
